We base our future structures and actions on thequalities of the Vodafone Way: Simplicity, speed and
trust. Every process, every product, every service
without added value for our customers will either be
improved or abandoned. This way we inspire our
customers and grow as a company.

LTE is the next evolutionary step for VFD2
Advantages of LTE
Higher bandwidth
High Speed Internet in rural areas
Increase customer base
Reduce network TCO (technology, support systems, etc)
Smart Network: self-Optimising and Self-Organising

Amdocs proposed the right solution:
Amdocs OSS as the strategic LTE platform to support network planning, rollout and maintenance
Amdocs is committed:
To invest effort to understand our system landscape
To deliver a solution within the required timelines
To adopt VFD2s requirements into their OSS product roadmap (Integrated Roadmap)
To support us in ensuring Return on Investment for our project, underlining the validity of our decision
to replace legacy OSS with Amdocs
To leverage the onsite Amdocs TEAM in Dsseldorf to ensure optimal communication and creative,
reliable teamwork
Why did we choose the Amdocs solution for LTE ?

Technical Scope & PrinciplesScope of Solution
> Inventory of record for all LTE equipment, VLAN configurations, IP Adressing etc.
> Automated processes for supporting rapid site roll-out
> Utilise existing processes within legacy systems for planning capacity in the corenetworks and for service assurance
> Tactical interfaces phased to SID/SOA over time
Design Principles
> All New LTE Objects and circuits models etc. to be mastered in Amdocs OSS
> Use Process Automation & Device Models for LTE (Amdocs Product Packs)
> Minimise Object Duplication between systems
> Maximise process automation within Amdocs OSS to simplify user processes

Planner Efficiency
Accelerated processes for LTE planning and rollout
Intelligent interfaces for a Future-Proof Solution
Ensure Business Adoption
Improved SME collaboration and transition readiness
Reduced TCO
LTE Inventory Packs and LTE Device Packs are part of the core product
and will reduce effort and implementation time when LTE hardware updates take place
Accelerate ROI
The LTE implementation on Amdocs OSS will mark an early milestone in realizing return on
investment

>Project approach:
You must have onsiteAmdocs presence
>Management Attention:
Presentation of VFD2 business objectives to Amdocs management at start of project was a
good vehicle to reconfirm the importance of this project and secure Amdocs management
attention
>Project Iteration Planning
Find the right balance between rigorous design document signoff vs flexibility in the
implementation
Ensure visibility to future iterations and manage design implications at an early stage
