IFS will showcase the unique value of their IFS.ai solutions built on Azure, supporting network transformations.
IFS, a global cloud enterprise software company, announced that for the second consecutive year it will be joining Mobile World Congress Barcelona, taking place 26 – 29 of February at Fira Gran Via, Barcelona, Spain. IFS will showcase the unique value that their IFS.ai solutions built on Azure deliver to telco operators, helping support these organizations’ network transformations, monetisation of 5G services, and leveraging industrial AI.
MWC Barcelona also gives IFS the chance to promote its launch of IFS.ai, the backbone of the company’s ERP, EAM, Asset Performance Management (APM), and Service Management (FSM and ITSM) solutions. IFS.ai also delivers a built-in AI engine that combines simulation, optimisation and anomaly detection to drive the efficiency of an operator’s people, assets, and workflows. Markus Persson, IFS’ global industry director for telecommunications, and IFS’ newly-appointed Chief Information Officer, Belinda Finch, will be present at the event.
Persson said, “To stay ahead of the competition, operators will need to invest in upgrading their network infrastructure, expanding their service portfolio, and developing new business models. But perhaps the most pressing challenge is the necessary competence shift, which is forcing companies to find and develop new workers—from a limited resource pool who can leverage data analytics and AI. This is where IFS’s built-in AI engine can greatly accelerate an operator’s time to value. We have taken the time to understand our data and apply intelligence to it, enabling us to deliver telecom industry-specific AI use cases that are ready to deploy from our solutions.”
Finch said, “Most operators have completed their first wave of digital transformation over the last few years but are recognising that this isn’t the end. The increasing importance of being able to take advantage of new technology quickly and roll out new products and services utilising this new technology is what every CIO is now prioritising. IFS provides enterprise platforms that can be implemented quickly to take advantage of this new technology, enabling operators to respond to the ever-changing market dynamics in a very agile way.”
During the event, the IFS team will be available to meet at the Microsoft booth 3H30 located in Hall 3. In the booth, they will showcase the latest functionality available in IFS.ai and Azure, which helps operators monetise the capabilities of 5G, accelerate service innovation, achieve sustainability goals, and optimise asset maintenance and field workers.
