Fragmented development and manual deployment of technology projects is hampering the ability of vertical industries to deliver easy to buy, high impact secure Smart x solutions, or meet today’s green objectives. It is increasingly essential therefore to enable the many specialist providers to be able to package up their products and services and to be able to contribute their ‘parts’ into ‘smart’ bundled solutions and these solutions need to be easily manageable from a lifecycle perspective, ensure lifetime security, and easily tailored to varying needs, while also meeting green objectives.

This Catalyst will draw on existing TM Forum standards to evolve a new ODA DSE (Digital Service Enabling) approach to consortium partnering to facilitate adoption of cyber-secure, repeatable multi-partner sourced solutions to improve customer outcomes, business efficiency and reduce the need for specific human interventions or energy use.
