VodafoneThree Relies on Automation for UK Network Integration

VodafoneThree is integrating its networks in the UK and expanding 5G services, placing P.I. Works’ automation platform at the center of its transformation.

The operator reported delivering major improvements to customers within the first year of the program, including improved 4G and 5G coverage and congestion relief for 7 million customers. VodafoneThree aims to launch differentiated services like Speed Boost and 5G slicing for enterprise clients, viewing automation not just as a cost reduction measure but as a means to deliver these services effectively.

P.I. Works’ platform addresses the complex technical challenges of merging standalone and shared networks, managing multiple vendors, and orchestrating operations across domains.

The company emphasizes a gradual approach to network autonomy, building trust through specific use cases before expanding automation scope. Ultimately, VodafoneThree will measure success by customer experience and its ability to adapt services to evolving needs.
