Telco Republic is pleased to announce the publication of the third iteration of our Disrupter Quintant for Next-Generation Telecom Operations and Business Support Systems.

This year’s report presents a rigorous evaluation and analysis of 12 vendors that are disrupting the traditional operations support systems (OSS) and business support systems (BSS) markets.

• Amdocs
• Cerillion
• Comarch
• CompaxDigital
• Ericsson
• Gaiia
• Hansen
• Huawei
• Incognito
• Netcracker
• Nokia
• Oracle

The 60-page report provides a deep dive into these vendors’ ability to enable communications service providers (CSPs) to transition from traditional OSS and BSS to NG-TOBS infrastructures, composed of horizontally architected, cognitive, cloud-based operational and business infrastructure as well as monetization and customer management orchestration.

We assess vendors across five “quintants” and two dimensions to provide guidance to CSPs how to navigate this emerging market, and how to make the best technology buying decisions.

The following are some of the key findings:

• Automation and AI are accelerating across all telecom operations, enabling zero-touch provisioning, autonomous networks and predictive maintenance by embedding AI/ML into OSS and BSS platforms for operational efficiency and innovation.
• Cloud-native transformation is reshaping legacy systems, with containerization, microservices and orchestration technologies driving continuous deployment, real-time analytics and seamless upgrades for greater scalability and agility.
• Integration of IoT, edge and advanced connectivity is increasing, requiring robust device management, billing solutions and network slicing to handle exponential connections and enable dynamic, programmable services.
• Holistic orchestration models use cognitive automation to link network technologies with business outcomes, bridging legacy and modern cloud environments and enabling end-to-end service provisioning.
• Open API frameworks and interoperability enable modular deployment and rapid service integration, supporting multi-tenant business models and agile ecosystem development to facilitate CSP innovation.
