Migration & Pruning

14. September 2020 Use Cases 2

Introduction

In order for Telcos to effectively satisfy each customer’s growing appetite for low rates and innovation, it’s no wonder migration and pruning practices are becoming an increasingly frequent occurrence. With a proven track record of 20 million customers, we’ve found success in enhancing the migration process to help telecoms engage post and prepaid subscribers, reduce the likelihood of churn and increase ARPU.

Trigger Events

The inevitable constant state of change comes from a variety of trigger events. Examples of such triggers may include:

  • A consolidation of billing systems
  • Elimination of unprofitable portfolios
  • Confusing or unappealing offer quality
  • Moving away from traditional legacy environments
  • Leveraging new innovations (i.e. 5G)
  • Optimize new business arrangements, such as mergers and acquisitions (M&As)

Accounting for Variations

Real value lies in the deep technical understanding of the issues associated with migrations. No portfolio is too large or complex for Clintworld’s simulation software thanks to the customer-by-customer drill down enabling true customer value growth.

Assigning Rulesets

Setting ambitious goals is the first step towards creating a customer-first migration, all while keeping competitors and regulations in mind. This can be achieved by defining a ruleset, split into two categories:

  • Technical Rules define the relationship between customers, price plans and options (i.e. which option can go with which price plan? which customer can receive which discount?) This information is typically extracted from the billing/CM systems.
  • Business Rules define revenue, margin and customer churn targets during the migration.

Clintworld’s simulation software allows for the implementation of a flexible and transparent ruleset. At any stage of the migration project, for example, an unacceptable ARPU level can warrant the tweaking of the ruleset in order to achieve desired results.

Clintworld is comprised of consultancy professionals. Armed with Clintview, the next-generation in simulation software, we compute hundreds of price plan-option-combinations for large operators with a proven track record beyond 20 million subscribers.
