ICT special know how

Sector-specific ICT expertise

The German and international telecommunications industries have been facing challenges on an equally large scale. Bandwidths and customer requirements have been growing steadily, while prices for services have been stagnating. The glass fibre network is currently being set up by mainly alternative network providers. Since rural areas are more qualified for state subsidies for FTTH, urban areas in Germany are still underserved. In addition, application procedures are still very complex.

Growing competitive pressure and low margins in broadband business are driving the need to automate more and more processes in the value chain. Industry 4.0 has also become an issue – for the telecommunications industry in particular. Projects have to be transposed into standard products and processes in a uniform IT landscape (IT factory), where manual intervention is not required. It is often necessary to radically change legacy processes, structures, and even the overall company culture.

LATUS’ consultants have operational management experience and extensive expertise in all disciplines of the telecommunications industry.

Cross-sector ICT expertise

Increasing levels of connectivity and the processing of ever larger data volumes are posing ever new challenges to industry, the service sector, government authorities, and organizations. While in the past the focus was on increasing IT-based production, nowadays it is essential to integrate the entire value chain, from supplier to customer. Government authorities are challenged with providing the public with fully automated processes for as many administrative transactions as possible.

In order to be competitive with regard to efficiency and quality, companies and organizations must intensify their efforts regarding the exchange and processing of electronic data. This will increasingly require specialist know-how and expertise beyond their core business areas. Connecting industry expertise with extensive, in-depth IT and telecommunications know-how is the key to overcoming these challenges successfully.

With numerous consulting projects and operative leadership activities under their belt, LATUS’ consultants have cross-sector competence profiles and a level of experience that is unparalleled in the industry.
