Operations Assurance

Operations Assurance is a business discipline focused on improving operational efficiencies and the management of operational risk. The most critical operational processes within a telecom operator are the network and technical management functions, together with the associated customer management processes. Increased operational efficiency has a direct positive impact on customer satisfaction levels and also improves profitability. 

Praesidium has a strong pedigree in Operations Assurance. The company has an in-depth understanding of the operator’s end-to-end business processes.  Furthermore, Praesidium has conducted operational risk assessments for many operators on a global basis. Operators face fundamental operational risks arising from the fast-changing market environment where operational assurance is needed to sustain growth.
