Chapter 38 Build a first-class delivery platform in the industry

Since the outbreak of the financial crisis in 2008, many industries around the world have entered a period of deep adjustment, and the telecom industry is no exception.With drastic changes in the industry environment, telecom operators have transformed themselves to meet industry and market challenges.Against the background of this industry transformation, Huawei redeployed the network of traditional telecom services. In line with the principle of "shoveling deep and working low", Huawei successfully turned around by building a first-class delivery platform in the industry with services, serving telecom operators Create new value.

The introduction of competition, the liberalization of prices, the decline of tariffs and the impact of the crisis have made the telecommunications industry gradually transform from the traditional telecommunications industry to the information service industry.Whether telecom operators are aggressively attacking "emerging markets" or deeply cultivating mature markets, focusing on core businesses, quickly entering target markets, increasing profitability, and reducing network TCO are the top priorities.At the same time, the telecommunications industry also undertakes a series of social responsibilities ranging from bridging the digital divide to energy conservation and emission reduction.As a traditional telecom service, network deployment services must take on the role of rapidly deploying high-performance networks, reliably expanding and upgrading networks, and working with telecom operators to fulfill the social responsibility of "green and environmental protection".

At the same time, the booming telecom investment makes the competition in the telecom market extremely fierce.Huawei's network deployment services also help operators quickly enter target markets and accelerate the pace of investment returns. Li Gang, vice president of Huawei's Global Technical Services Department, introduced that Huawei's network deployment service is dedicated to helping operators build network foundations, expand or upgrade their communication networks.Tailor-made turnkey, relocation and telecom installation solutions can meet the different needs of different operators in different markets and different life cycle stages. "Rapid deployment" has become the primary goal and core competitiveness of Huawei's network deployment services.Take the first half of 2009 as an example, Huawei's network deployment service has deployed more than 260,000 wireless sites, which means that a site built by Huawei goes online almost every minute.

For example, in 2007, Huawei intensively delivered more than 4,000 Turnkey sites throughout Pakistan; in 2008, Huawei set a historical record of relocating more than 5,000 sites within one month in the C network relocation project of China Telecom; In one month, Nordic telecommunications giant TeliaSonera opened the world's first 4G network-based service in Norway.Regardless of the product or delivery scenario, Huawei is committed to helping operators quickly launch commercial networks and seize market leadership. Although there is an increasing demand for quick market opportunities, high-quality networks and good network profitability are still the key for telecom operators to maintain end-user loyalty.Especially when the network is relocated to improve network performance, on the one hand, it is necessary to ensure the smooth evolution of the existing network to the latest services. On the other hand, the network relocation must also minimize the impact on existing network users, so as to avoid user experience degradation or even user loss.Up to now, Huawei has had successful experience in safely relocating the networks of any other manufacturers in the world, and can relocate with "confidence".

In 2007, Huawei joined hands with Leap in the "5-minute" cutover in the Northwest of the United States, making the area the "Best Performance Network" of Leap; A historical moment in evolution; in 2009, Huawei and T-Mobile of the Czech Republic successfully relocated the existing 2G network, and the network indicators increased by an average of 25%.Huawei's deep understanding of the relocation business and its perfect procedures give us the confidence to face any complex network relocation. According to a research report, the mobile communication industry has become a "double major player" in energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions.Cooperating with the application of new equipment and functions for green network communications, Huawei's network deployment services adapt to local conditions, and actively use alternative energy sources such as solar energy and wind energy to provide power for base station operation. At present, new energy base stations deployed by Huawei have been successfully launched in countries such as Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. .At the same time, Huawei's network deployment services will also infiltrate "green" into the entire life cycle of network deployment services, launching special services such as site sharing solutions, energy saving and emission reduction solutions, environment-friendly solutions, and old equipment disposal solutions, aiming to save resources to the greatest extent , to reduce carbon emissions. In 2009, Huawei deployed a landscape roof station disguised as a chimney in Turkey, on the one hand, without causing damage to the landscape, and on the other hand, it saved 10% of the site construction cost by virtue of its high integration.Not only that, but in the process of network deployment, concepts such as green network planning, green logistics, green implementation management, and green equipment installation have been deeply integrated into the steps and processes of network deployment.It can be said that in this "green revolution", Huawei also plays the role of a pioneer.

Huawei people know that only by improving the quality, capabilities, and benefits of Huawei's network deployment service team can it provide operators with "fast, reliable, and green" network deployment services and truly reduce Capex (capital expenditure) for operators.Therefore, on the one hand, Huawei is actively exploring and summarizing efficient management methods, and on the other hand, it is also committed to optimizing and strengthening the service organization system. Huawei has always attached great importance to process construction and continuous optimization.Develop an end-to-end delivery process based on product features and customer needs. Huawei will tailor quality standards and acceptance processes for customers, and develop site standard procedures to keep the process efficient and flexible. Huawei has a project management team of more than 800 people .

Regardless of the network scenario, scale, and difficulty to be deployed, Huawei can provide project managers who speak the local language, are familiar with the local conditions, and have relevant experience and qualifications to ensure the rapid deployment of high-performance networks; Huawei adheres to the principle of "quality is life" The belief is to establish a preventive quality management system, take customer requirements as the working standard, and zero defect as the working principle, to realize the transformation to the whole process quality management of network deployment services, so as to improve customer satisfaction; Huawei has fully deployed EHS management, Work with operators to avoid business compliance risks and assume social responsibilities, and create a good social image; for increasingly complex network structures and expanding network coverage, Huawei's self-developed integrated site management IT tool i-Site can simultaneously manage a large number of The site provides a unified platform for timely information communication and problem tracking.The real-time status of all Huawei projects and sites is clear at a glance, which strongly supports the efficient implementation of network deployment; at the same time, in line with the principle of "win-win", Huawei actively gathers mainstream suppliers, and has formed partnerships with more than a thousand companies around the world. Strategic Partners.With a series of good interactions and cooperation in certification, training, and performance appraisal, the two parties have combined the experience and expertise of the supplier and Huawei's professional advantages to continue to build a high-quality green network.

Under the call of the main theme of "convergence and broadband", base stations will gradually become smaller and closer to end users, so the increasingly dense sites will soon number in the millions.As a traditional telecom service, network deployment services will inevitably undertake the historical task of "large-scale, high-density" mass deployment.Under the guidance of the tenet of "Shoveling deep into the beach, working low on the weir", Huawei will continue to tap internal potential, reduce operating costs, and continue to pursue more accurate network design, more reliable logistics support, and more efficient project management. The delivery platform supports the development of future network deployment in a "fast, reliable, and green" manner.
