Accenture Launches Data Apps for Telecoms Sector

Management consultancy Accenture has launched a set of five advanced analytics apps, through which it says telecoms companies can make more effective pricing, staffing, maintenance and planning decisions.

The new apps are 'revenue forecasting', 'bundle pricing', 'call volume forecaster', 'network predictive fault management', and 'IT governance'. They can be used on their own, or through the Accenture Insights Platform analytics-as-a-service solution.

Accenture currently offers a total of 25 advanced analytics apps for the telecoms, retail, financial services and utilities industries, and also offers to tailor-make apps for clients' specific needs.

Marco Vernocchi (pictured), Senior MD, Accenture Communications, Media and Technology, comments: 'Countless companies are vying to be the next big digital disruptor in the highly competitive global telecommunications industry. One way to have a strong foot in this race is by turning data into an asset and using it to make insight-driven decisions'.
