For years, telecom operators have faced an impossible dilemma: modernise their legacy BSS or stagnate. The problem? Modernisation has long been synonymous with excruciating migration projects, disruptive IT overhauls that devour budgets, delay innovation, and too often deliver underwhelming results. ​As McKinsey & Company has observed that approximately 70% of digital transformation initiatives do not succeed, companies need a new proven strategy.
