Gofore helps with creating 5G 

In the Telecom sector, Gofore has successfully helped clients to enable the infrastructure for 5G and the Internet of Things to transform the human experience – globally. Gofore has enriched software development to support proofs of concept and content creation for delivering services provided by innovative solutions, such as AI, analytics, machine learning and big data.
Alongside strategic thinking and technical expertise, Gofore has brought Agile and Lean coaching to the table. “We have integrated into existing strategy work with our iterative approach. We see that strategy is about fast paced delivery, the ability to scale with the help of standardised practises and building a learning organisation. We continuously analyse change to find useful patterns to apply to software development. Our goal is to focus on what could be as opposed to what is”, comments Juhana Huotarinen, Agile Transformation Advisor at Gofore.

Feedback from one of our global market leading clients says: “For us, it has been important that Gofore has been fully committed and accountable for what we are aiming to achieve. Our collaboration with Gofore is transparent, committed, accountable and supportive. Specifically, we are very satisfied with the Agile methodology and technical expertise Gofore has brought.
In practice, Gofore planned and coordinated a new multi-disciplinary, multi-team, multi-site high performing transformation program including Agile coaches and software specialists. This was achieved largely by creating a permissible culture which encourages collaboration and self-learning. The core competence of Gofore is to make complex things straightforward. Whether that means complex business, organization or technical challenges.

The First Steps of Transformation

We are now starting to see commercial 5G networks scaling up for transforming business and delivering better customer experience. Previous wireless technologies were about connecting people. The new characteristic of 5G is that it has all the ingredients for automating business processes and it is a great technology for business transformation. There surely are challenges to tackle in how to build the capacity in a dynamic and flexible way, how to address operational inefficiencies by leveraging automation/AI and how to increase revenue growth by means of service differentiation and the ability to leverage partners’ ecosystems. Not only with bleeding edge software, but with enabling agile strategy and culture.
