Strategic Transformation Consulting Practice

The Strategic Transformation Consulting Practice focuses on supporting telecom operators that are seeking advice on the development and execution of effective strategies to transform their business. In today's fast-changing market environment, telecom operators can seldom rely on short-term tactics to achieve sustainable business growth and satisfactory returns for their shareholders.

Deregulation, globalisation, convergence, new technologies and business models, as well as changing customer demands urge traditional fixed operators and mobile operators to adopt wider transformation strategies in order to stay competitive and survive.

In many mature and emerging markets, these telecom operators embark on a similar transformation journey to BT, to become 21C communication providers, through the transformation of their business across infrastructure, systems, processes, portfolio, and people under a unified strategy.

Getting the transformation strategy right is paramount to the long-term success of the business. We leverage the expertise and experience that BT has accumulated in turning itself from a traditional incumbent operator into a global networked IT services company.

We take a holistic approach to strategic transformation. Key focus areas of our work with telecom operators includes:

Corporate Transformation Strategy

Translate your overarching vision and mission into strategic goals with a supporting transformation programme and strategies. The key challenge is to identify performance and opportunity gaps and turn strategic planning into effective strategy execution, while raising the quality of change leadership across the business.

Transformation Due Diligence

Financial and strategic investors increasingly target telecom operators which are being privatised and offer growth potentials subject to a successful transformation post-acquisition. BT Telconsult assists investors pre- and post-acquisition in making the right decisions. The combination of our management consultants and experienced telco practitioners provide insights and recommendations that go beyond the financial investment case, to build the foundation for an end-to-end transformation strategy.

Regulatory Advice

Changes in the regulatory environment can pose extensive threats or create significant opportunities for telecom operators' strategies and business models. Incumbent operators in particular ought to have a regulatory strategy and framework including a regulatory risk map as part of their corporate strategy. To offer you support as a trusted advisor, BT Telconsult looks to BT's extensive experience operating in the first deregulated and most competitive marketplace for telecoms services worldwide. Topics include functional and structural separation, understanding regulatory accounting and LRIC models for interconnection, regulation on next-generation networks and services, and obtaining new licenses.

Innovation Strategy

Successful innovation strategies are vital for a telco to survive shortening product life-cycles and deliver innovative services at lower price points. The key to this strategy is to determine where to invest now for future success. We pride ourselves in BT with our open innovation approach, and world-class research and development. Both have paid dividends by making innovation inclusive rather than exclusive. On the basis of our experience and innovation best practices, we are keen to support you in developing successful innovation strategies.
