Processing the relationship between the customer’s experience and the network’s performance is at the heart of good governance. Governance takes place where the appropriate roles, process and technology are in place to capture all the elements that impact the relationship. The impacts include how experience impacts on the network, how the network impacts on experience and how it all impacts on the relationship.


Providing sensible and actionable information on impacts is central to operator requirements in Managed Services contracts. Whether you are a senior executive or an operational manager information is critical to making judgements about performance.
