4 Agenda Modular architecture basics How modular architecture improves profitability How to introduce a modular architecture Summary Discussion on Telia s approach

5 Modularity in telecommunications SERVICES: DEVICES: ACCESSES: CORE and TRANSPORT SERVICE ENABLERS Modularity enables faster and cheaper: Television Voice calls Fax Company services Upgrade with new services and service variants Addition of new accesses and variants Common resource utilization Voice calls Internet SMS Internet Data storage Security Voice calls CUSTOMERS: ORDER & CONFIG. SYSTEM CONF RULES SERVICES CUSTOMERS $ $ BILLING BILL TARIFFS & DISCOUNTS SERVICES & USAGE CUSTOMERS

6 Business strategies Cost reduction Operational Excellence by: Efficient processes and commonality + Productive + Even quality + Low cost -Unflexible - Price pressure Price premium Product Leadership by: Innovation, fast R&D cycle + Price premium + Positive brand image - Development costs - Quality risks Market share Customer Intimacy by: Fast, precise customer adaptations + Faithful customers + Many product variants + Market share - Unstable processes - High customization costs Discipline of Market Leaders by Michael Treacy & Fred Wiersema

7 The problem is Operational Excellence Customer Intimacy Product Leadership improving in one direction makes the other two suffer

8 The problem is Operational Excellence Standardized solutions conflicts with customer specific solutions Using well proven processes and focusing on even quality slows down development and conflicts with Product leadership Customer Intimacy Product Leadership improving in one direction makes the other two suffer

9 The problem is Operational Excellence Customer Intimacy Product Leadership A high level of customization increases complexity in the company making the OE suffer. The product variance created makes it impossible to also maintain product leadership for all those products improving in one direction makes the other two suffer

10 The problem is Operational Excellence To be product leader forces you to focus on a small number of products. This makes the variance offered to the customers decrease Product leadership requires a constant development of the product. The frequent changes is making the OE hard to maintain. Customer Intimacy Product Leadership improving in one direction makes the other two suffer

11 Decoupling by modularity Operational Excellence Customer Intimacy Product Leadership Module: A building block with defined interfaces, driven by Company specific strategic reasons Market requirements must guide the modularization

12 Modularity depends on interfaces Product Leadership Operational Excellence Customer Intimacy Interfaces isolate the modules in their strategic circle

13 Definitions Module: A building block with defined interfaces, driven by Company specific strategic reasons. Module Variant: A physical realization of a module. Module System: A set of modules that through different combinations generates a range of products that can be efficiently developed, marketed, produced, and delivered

32 Agenda Modular architecture basics How modular architecture improves profitability How to introduce a modular architecture Summary Discussion on Telia s approach

33 Summary Modular design benefits: Operational Excellence Less complexity More product variants Product Leadership Customer Intimacy Improved quality Faster Time-to-Market Architecture becomes part of the company strategy Higher profitability

34 Agenda Modular architecture basics How modular architecture improves profitability How to introduce a modular architecture Summary Discussion on Telia s approach

35 Waste of resources and long lead-times Projects are driven through pipelines Every product manager is racing on his own Project Managers is braking new ground parallel to his/her colleges Unclear specifications The value of customer demands and properties are seldom thoroughly worked through The technology of tomorrow is driving the future customer demands Dangerously close to an infarct to many parallel projects (ca 30 official) Difficult to get people working in a structural manner. People are used to putting out fires Drowning in documentation A billion documents needs to presented at the same time Bottlenecks Everything needs to be passing through Jonas and Ola Lack of communication and walls (working in herring barrels) Marketing and technology is using different languages
