Combating covid-19 for a better tomorrow
The Situation
As nations around the globe are grappling with COVID-19, a new world of work is emerging. Enterprises such as communications service providers (CSPs) are shifting to virtual ways of doing things to ensure business continuity and growth during the COVID-19 crisis.
The telecom sector, in particular, not only finds itself in a position to mitigate operational challenges posed by the unprecedented global crisis, but also faces critical pressure to serve and satisfy the now internet-dependent mobile workforce, which is demanding for higher and faster data connections. It is time for telcos to rethink ways of working, serving customers, securing the enterprise, and planning business continuity—now, more than ever.
The Impact
Owing to the current situation, the following are CSP CXOs’ top-of-mind concerns:
- The organizations should step up to help the social cause. They need to ensure employee safety and well-being in these testing times.
- The organizations should enable a safe and secure remote working environment for their employees and customers.
- Network planning is of utmost importance due to spike in internet usage as majority of the population is working from home, resulting in an increased consumption of data due to restricted movement.
- The organizations need to shift their focus on innovation and adapt to the new normal for growth. They need to have a resilient business continuity plan for their organization and customers.
- The possibility of shifting to online stores that are highly interactive.
These concerns are top priorities for CSPs, and addressing these concerns is very much possible for telcos.
