Case study
Implementing the nationwide telecoms that carry over one billion smart meter communications every day.
Smart meters are only as good as the network that connects them. Behind the meters sits a telecoms layer that has to reach across the whole country and carry an enormous, relentless volume of communications, well over a billion every day, without interruption. Building and implementing that at national scale is unforgiving. Coverage has to be genuinely nationwide, capacity has to hold at a volume most networks never see, and it all runs in a live environment where a gap in the telecoms is a gap in the data the whole market depends on.
Our leadership led the implementation of the nationwide telecoms carrying smart meter communications with Vodafone.
A nationwide telecoms capability that carries over a billion smart meter communications every day, reliably and at a scale very few programmes ever operate at. It is the network that quietly makes the smart metering estate work.
Delivering telecoms at national scale, carrying over a billion communications a day in a live environment, is exactly the collision of capital, complexity and reliability that defines hard telecoms programmes. Having implemented it, we bring real experience of network delivery at a scale generalists do not have.
From nationwide implementation to assurance on a network programme, we bring experience of telecoms delivery at genuine national scale. Honest, senior and accountable.
