Jio has released integrated, end-to-end

workflow based business process automation

on the Geospatial Platform to efficiently

deliver this huge incremental network for

providing affordable services across India.

After roll-out, Business Analytics, Marketing,

Sales, Service Fulfillment & Service Assurance

will also leverage the same data and

geospatial applications.

This paper presents our solution consisting of

BPM engine for end-to-end Business

Workflow & Dashboard, Desktop & web GIS

applications, mobile GIS applications and

web-service interfaces tightly integrating

other systems like SAP, OSS, BSS etc. Esri

geodatabase, ArcGIS platform and Ericsson’s

NetworkEngineer are fundamental in this

end-to-end automation where the functional

end users never see a GIS UI.

Presently he is delivery manager for ArcGIS web solution

development for RJIL.

Introduction

Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited (RJIL) is shaping future of India by providing end-to-end digital solutions for businesses,

institutions and households, bridging the rural-urban divide, through cutting-edge voice & broadband network and

rich digital services. On-boarding 140 million mobile customers in a year is testimony of Jio’s success!

The wireless and Wireline services will be provided to customers through LTE, WiFi, and FTTx (Fibre to the

Home/Building/Premise). With availability of numerous internet-based applications, India is witnessing a tremendous

increase in data usage and heavy demand for high speed internet – both in consumer and commercial segments.

Focus on broadband networks, affordable smartphones, availability of rich content and applications has enabled Jio

to offer a unique combination of telecom, high speed data, digital commerce, media and payment services. This has

propelled Jio to a 140 million customer telco in just one year.

With our extensive, future-proof full-IP network we plan to serve 20 million FTTx customers. Jio's FTTx network will

enable customers to enjoy the rich content, applications and solutions over 100 Mbps bandwidth at every home and

business. This will involve expanding our current fiber optic network of 2.5 lakh kM by another 1 lakh kms.

Jio has released integrated, end-to-end workflow based business process automation on the Geospatial Platform to

efficiently deliver this huge incremental network for providing affordable services across India.

User Groups There are seven major user groups consisting of more than 2000 users located across India. This solution is accessible

to both employees and contractors. Users are centrally handled through user management system created on basis of

functionality, geography and hierarchy.

Figure 2: User Groups

Milestones FTTx application suit consist of a BPM engine for Business Workflow & Dashboard, Desktop & web GIS applications,

mobile GIS Apps (build on top of ArcGIS for Mobile on Android Platform) and GIS-based web-service interfaces covering

the major milestones of network roll-out as shown

2. Network planning (NPE) issues network design and field teams confirm route feasibility after joint field survey with

Construction and Local Business teams.

3. NPE releases Final Design is based on route feasibility complete with BOQ and SOQ. This information is transferred

to SAP-MM for capex and material management.

4. Procurement & Contracting completed by NPE & Construction based on BOQ and SOQ.

5. Right of Way (ROW) is managed by Construction team and Construction is carried out based on ROW, materials and

contractor mobilization.

6. The work is assigned based on distributor serving area (DSA).

7. As-Built data is updated by the field construction. The installation and data QA/QC is also carried out using field GIS

8. The As-Built Data is converted to Network Inventory in Ericssons Network Engioneer, elements and connectivity is

transferred to OSS for provisioning.

9. Integration with tableau for various types of reports for all stakeholders and management.

10. As-Built Network assets are Handed Over to and Taken Over by (HOTO) O&M.

11. Lastly the Building is declared as Ready for Service (RFS) for Service Fulfillment & later for Service Assurance in BSS

and OSS with start of O2A journey.
