Other challenges telecommunication industry faced includes the demands of technological changes, regulatory changes and of course fierce competition. Is your business ready to tackle any unexpected situations that may pop up in today’s highly unpredictable world?
BCP Asia's Experience
Our experience with the Telecommunication industry started back in 2006 when we conducted gap analysis for a telecommunication organisation. Since then we have run projects for over 20 telecommunications organisations in Singapore, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh and Indonesia.
Telecommunication organisations usually have a complex structure, depending on the products and services they provide. In terms of infrastructure and network, it is not always to duplicate the same network as it is not economy and physically viable to do so. So what are other areas that can be strengthen and enhance to make the entire structure less vulnerable? What happens if a telecommunication organisation, experiencing a network disruption, needs to activate its resources via call tree?
