Network Enhancement Strategy

Wayes involvement in network enhancement provides it with a unique ability to provide operators and infrastructure suppliers with consultative skill in this area. Within an operational network enhancement addresses updates to any part of the network and how such an update impacts on the rest of the operational network, its support network, organisational structure and the operating procedures and processes required to support it.

For infrastructure suppliers enhancement means the controls placed on product updates, their backward compatibility and the ability to supply seamless upgrade paths to its customer base.

Supplier services include:

  • Build control processes and procedures
  • Audit of extension, re-arrangement and enhancement procedures
  • Development of extension, re-arrangement and enhancement strategies

However within operational networks numerous elements are integrated into a single network build level. Operators use this build level to manage the network as a single entity. This entity may require extension, re-arrangement, or enhancement, in part, or in full and this must have limited impact on core network infrastructure and customer alike.

Operator services include:

  • Development of network build control process and procedures
  • Integration of supplier build control process and procedures
  • Audit of extension, re-arrangement and enhancement procedures
  • Development of extension, re-arrangement and enhancement strategies.
