In high-definition data and communication, enterprise markets are a growth area. They will demand more co-created, personalised and secure business services as cloud-based applications, IoT/5G services and reliable business connectivity remain critical for productivity, innovation and competitiveness.

There is no such thing as a standard sale or proposition in your organisation. Either sales team build and configure unique customer propositions or your customers are demanding to build their own with autonomy and flexibility within the boundaries of multiple product options and sales policies.
You use resellers and partners as routes to market. They demand real-time digital controls and insight so that they can support customers and sales more quickly and consistently, and with direct end-customer controls.
In addition to existing connectivity and hardware solutions, you are growing your portfolio quickly with services from new partners, virtualised networks and cloud-based solutions for heterogeneous network services, IoT/M2M solutions and enterprise solutions.
5G is designed predominantly for enterprises and IoT enablement. Selling co-created, private and assured service to business curators will strain your current service operations and need to be automated and monetised alongside new business models.
Enterprises bring complex hierarchies with structures that vary by business function, from credit control to end-user needs to account governance. Automation and self-services has become critical to delivering better experience and reducing risk.
You need to automate the on-boarding of partner products. They need to be configured and embedded into existing and new service offers. Partners need service transparency, settlement and product controls to operate efficiently with you.
For the first time, the mobile communications industry is prioritizing the enterprise market. For more than 30 years, its main focus has been on serving individuals and consumers, but 5G is changing the target. Now mobile operators and their suppliers believe there is more potential for revenue growth in serving enterprises than consumers. Download this TM Forum report, supported by MDS Global, to learn:

Our capabilities have grown by supporting some of the most complex enterprise service providers. B2B2X is our DNA.
With large expenditures and an increasing dependency on always being connected, online cost control, group management and service access is an essential tool for all stakeholders in the enterprise. It’s also one of the largest costs to enterprise service desks. Our systems support these tools and experiences in real-time. We offer to benchmark the savings made for your organisation.
Giving resellers the ability to control multiple accounts efficiently directly minimises the costs associated with servicing them, whilst also improving the end enterprise experience. Our partner portals provide personalised and definable access and insight to all your sales and reseller channels, ultimately driving both their business and yours.
A unified product catalogue offers you total control over services, price plans, packaging including allowance, discount and workflow management – within seconds. This critically supports custom propositions and individual tariff negotiations common for B2B2X services. APIs allow direct integration of the product catalogue, both as a master or slave, to other third party systems such as Configure Price Quote (CPQ) system. Our as-a-service approach can also configure them for you, so you can focus on building your business.
Definable and private networks, as enabled by new 5G and SDN driven architectures, foster new levels of service availability and characteristics for dedicated business and IoT applications. B2BonDemand enables agile service co-creation, that is simple for the B2B2X chain to order and co-manage, whilst abstracting complexity with zero-touch fulfilment, assurance and charging processes.
The way an enterprise is structured or viewed changes with respect to the service feature. For example, the billing hierarchy for cost control is different from the hierarchy that manages how services are shared, which is different from how users are notified of exceptions or service options to drive up-sell. Enterprise level workflows, tools and processes are based on managing large accounts and services in these different ways.
A services based cloud architecture, with Open APIs, enables third party integration of solutions like CPQ (configure price quote), POS (point of sale) and customer apps by vendors such as salesforce.com and Microsoft Dynamics. Our own customer facing front-end solutions are built on the same APIs. We also align with TMF Open API and ODA standards to simplify and standardise system integration.
Embedded analytics to support agile and informed decision making, with zero degradation or interpretation issues. Provides granular customer-level information covering revenue, margins, connections, churn, debt analysis and much more. Supports self-service analysis and discovery.
