Deployment services

Time to market turbo for new network technology

Overview

Experience faster, more flexible, and efficient 5G rollouts with Nokia’s digital deployment services, providing transparency at every phase of your project. Our services are future-ready, offering multiple delivery models for deploying new technologies. Through continuous innovation, digital deployment is becoming a cornerstone for rolling out the networks of tomorrow.

When deploying, upgrading, and maintaining mobile networks, safety is paramount. At Nokia, we uphold a zero-tolerance policy for any breach of our life-saving rules. We operate in a fast-paced industry, but safety is never negotiable. Any serious incidents are devastating because they could have been avoided.

Critical safety areas include working at heights, road safety, and electrical work. Proper use of personal protective equipment, supervision, and early hazard identification are essential to prevent accidents and personal injury.

With digitalization leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, we empower our customers, subcontractors, and suppliers to enhance safety further. Digital site walks eliminate the need for physical site visits.

On-site crews utilize our AI/ML phone application for hazard recognition, check-ins and check-outs, and acknowledgment of site-specific alerts and warnings. They also verify their personal protective equipment before commencing any work. With millions of digital checks performed to date, this has become our daily standard.

We are committed to developing innovative solutions to minimize risks in our business. Our approach is clear: every life counts, and everyone goes home safely at the end of the day.

Managing large scale rollout during the pandemic

Bharti Airtel capacity expansions with new sites roll out was hindered by pandemic related restrictions. Nokia, using its digital deployment supported Bharti Airtel with rapid rollout spread across 9 territories (circles).

Nokia achieved a peak rollout of 12K+ sites in September 2020 using workflow orchestration and field collaboration of its service delivery platform. Faster rollouts enhanced Bharti's user experience and improved network connectivity services.

Banglalink customer use case

Banglalink chose Nokia’s Single RAN solution as a part of its technology strategy, to modernize its network for future readiness and reducing its operating expenditure (OPEX). Nokia Single RAN consists of multipurpose hardware and common software for 2G, 3G, for TD- and FD 4G and 5G technologies.
