Rapidly changing customer expectations with technological advancement
The Telecom Service Providers (TSPs) are at the existential crossroads today. With the blurring boundaries between communication and information technology, the smartphone revolution and applications have redefined consumer behavior and expectations. There is an explosion in data and need for network upgrade (4G/5G) without proven business models for monetization of the huge data traffic. Digital and OTT players are directly engaging with their customers, leading to a steady decline in traditional revenues and businesses. On the other hand, Telecom solutions have immense growth potential as providers of critical communications infrastructure and connectivity between customers and digital services providers. Hexaware is uniquely aligned to serve TSPs as a strategic transformational partner through its exclusive focus on DevOps, Agility, IT transformation models, as well as partnerships with next-gen digital platforms.
This applies to the Media and Entertainment (M&E) sector where the increase in the mobile and internet penetration and rising stature of the millennial is transforming online existence into a way of life. This gives the Media and Entertainment industry numerous opportunities to use technology to stay connected with their users across channels/mode of usage. Media houses and other OTT providers are turning towards new gen technologies like XR (extended reality), content analytics and hyper-targeted advertising.
Digital assurance has become critical in the Telecom industry due to factors including rapid advancements in the mobile application landscape, DevOps, the evolution of smartphones and the integration of partner products and services with traditional communication services.
Delivery of our services is driven by ‘Automation First’ principle right from test creation to implementation cycles, backed by our own IP platform ‘Digitest’ (our Digital Testing Solution that provides end-to-end validation from Big Data to insights) and ‘iD2E Automation’ (our Integrated Design2Execution (iD2E) platform that automates the entire testing lifecycle). We leverage our broad and deep experience of COTS products to deliver digital assurance services across applications, mobile testing and agile implementations.
The Telecom industry is evolving towards software-based agile infrastructure with programmable automated processes.

Telecom companies typically have numerous legacy backend systems in their network management, sales and product management functions, which may have been acquired or developed during the inorganic growth of the company over the years, or through business lines developed through diversification and choice of best solutions available in the past. Hexaware helps TSPs in centralizing and consolidating these IT and network applications, standardizing them and migrating them to a jointly developed target application framework. Consolidation helps in building a service-oriented architecture that seamlessly orchestrates between internal and external stakeholders and provides a single view of the customer, besides delivering huge operational savings due to shared resources and processes. Areas for centralization and consolidation include:
As the Telecom industry catches up with the digital revolution which has impacted other industries with emerging and innovative business models, much of the innovation (outside the traditional big vendor networks) takes place at smaller companies or start-ups. Hexaware has created an exciting ecosystem of many such innovative companies working to create new customer experiences, analytics-led customer targeting, new digital services, industry-specific applications, network monitoring, and social networks, to name a few. Hexaware helps integrate these new solutions with Telecom service delivery frameworks, testing them in a controlled environment, assessing their scalability, and creating new business propositions for end consumers. This innovation management has paved the way for higher customer retention, customer satisfaction, monetization of data traffic and new revenue streams.
