Huawei has made available its operations support system (OSS) solution commercially available to all service providers, which was previously only available as part of its managed services.
Huawei has also now made OSS available on a centralized platform in the cloud, enabling easy access to information on Huawei’s long-term expertise in the industry, as well as standards and best practices for other managed services projects.
"With the emergence of the digital economy, operators are taking an active role both as an enabler for third-party service innovation as well as an innovator of next-generation digital services,” said Anil Rao, a senior analyst at Analysys Mason.
“Huawei is evolving OSS to become a key enabler of service-centric operators and in the long-term, the key value proposition for the OSS solution is shifted to enabling operators to play a significantly larger role in the emerging digital economy by transforming from a B2C to a B2B2C player," added Rao.
Rao said the OSS solution strengthens Huawei’s position as a transformation partner for operators as it can now offer both network and a COTS OSS.
