Today’s telecom operators are expected to deliver consistent and reliable network experience to consumer and enterprise customers. Managing such a complex network requires high fault tolerance measured on its number of 9’s availability and shorter mean time to restore.
We understand that the autonomous networks initiative is the key to driving operational excellence by embedding AI, Digital Twins, and intelligent Agents across network domains. Yet, one of the biggest challenges for nearly all operators lies within their own assets: data. Data is the critical fuel for autonomous networks—but today, most operators face significant hurdles:
* Siloed Data Sources – Disparate systems create inconsistent and fragmented data, undermining the foundation of automation.
* Lack of Data Governance – Without centralized control, data quality, security, and compliance risks multiply, eroding trust and slowing transformation.
* Inefficient Data Processing – Inconsistent and incomplete data delays reporting and decision-making, ultimately stalling self-optimizing networks.
Our approach breaks down silos and federates telecom inventory data using AI and TM Forum-defined standards (ODA, Canvas, OpenAPI, DT4DI). This unified data fabric enables CSPs to:
Enhance network resilience with predictive AI use cases, such as:
* AI Copilot for complex network operations, enabling automated troubleshooting and planning
* Real-time inventory visibility across physical, virtual, and logical assets—spanning IT, RAN, edge, and AI-driven data centers
Democratize data access by extending unifying inventory management, PM, FM allowing CSPs to govern and scale AI-driven insights organization-wide
To overcome this fragmentation and move toward autonomy, the PIONEER Catalyst—led by Globe, in partnership with Singtel Group, Dell Technologies, FNT, and NVIDIA—embraces the A-B-C-D framework to align with TM Forum’s Autonomous Networks vision.
As a key OpCo of the Singtel Group, Globe is leading the Group-wide Autonomous Networks (AN) program launched in 2023 — serving as the AN Practice Coach and proving ground for strategic innovation and scalable execution. Following TM Forum’s IG1326 blueprint, Globe is driving the development and validation of high-impact L3 and L3+ use cases across operations, with other OpCos set to adopt and scale these learnings.
