Extending ODA standards to enable B2B2x frictionless trading could increase average revenues per customer by 2 to 5 times or more AND reduce operating costs by 50-75% … … and enable cyber security requirements for Zero Trust attestation handshakes per device (with all supply chain partners’ keys) + Zero Touch … for both activation and in-life! Eight years since publishing the Platform Revolution (Profs Parker, Van Alstyne, Choudary) digital platform players continue to massively outperform traditional companies. BUT, everything needs connectivity and telcos are uniquely placed to participate in this growth. DBM Phases 1 - 6 solved key challenges and demonstrated deploying cameras as secure trusted endpoints leveraging Zero Trust, Zero Touch, & Frictionless Trading across all partners in the supply chain. But while these B2B2x techniques are based on TM Forum ODA standards, the ODA standards do NOT articulate B2B2x capabilities ! DBM7’s focus is to help uplift the ODA standards to enable telcos to operate with and like the platform players, to partner and trade frictionlessly with multiple organisations B2B2x, rather than trading manually or using proprietary techniques. DBM7 uses two B2B2x partnering use cases to explore what needs to be done to enable the ODA to articulate B2B2x: * VR gaming services, where on top of the 5G core, the partner provided 5G slices are used by roaming gamers * securing the supply chain for multi-partner sourced solutions such as Drone operation & AI for Smart Manufacturing. DBM7’s architectural governance insights, key ODA B2B2x gaps (TR302 et.al) and proposed ODA extensions required for B2B2x partnerships and multi-party ecosystems are being worked with ODA core teams using B2B2x capable API call sequence flowcharts. Examples include launching partner offers bundled with native data services, ensuring consistency across Partner Agreement, Contract to Assure process e.g. Customer contract, Product Inventory, partner settlements, etc.
