Digital Switchover and Process Management
The Challenge: There is a major push by the British Government to both enhance performance via the use of high definition technology and free up spectrum for other uses thereby increasing Government revenue. This is a four year programme of work
Our Role: The processes associated with DSO (Digital Switchover) were audited & found to be in a poor state e.g. poorly captured & not representative of the current operation. There had been no slippage, but without action the rapid ramp up of sites to be switched was likely to put the dates at risk due to the lack of clear handover between the large team of engineers working on the upgrades & the “day to day” operations team.
