Drive testing and in-building testing, are key activities to determine the real network performance and actual customer experience in the field, and yet they can be hectic and time-consuming activities.

Digis Squared’s INOS solution is a cloud-based drive test (DT) and indoor building solution (IBS), developed to give structure to these tests, and decrease the time and cost of the work. Using cloud-controlled mobile phones, INOS collects all the logs needed, and uploads them to the cloud – ensuring you don’t need to have either a laptop or engineers in the field, the collection of data can be managed by a single driver in a car, or single person within a building.

INOS enables,

• Networks and technologies benchmarking, across all technologies, including assessing competitor capability
• E2E real-user experience for voice, video, data and any OTT app
• Deep-layer analysis such as L3/L2/L1
• Robotic post-processing developed by Digis Squared’s Radio and CX experts save massive amounts of time for customers in processing the logs, and delivers accurate visibility on bad coverage, bad quality, low throughput spots as well as missing neighbours, high overlapping areas, and HW issues that hit any site (such as cross feeder, cross sectors and VSWR)
• Automated reporting: In the cloud, customers or teams can review on-screen post-processing, as well as generate all the reports and KPIs needed, by just a single click
• Live monitoring: as all data is instantly sent to the cloud, engineers in the office can assess data live, and,
  • Ask colleagues in the field to run more DTs or check other parts of the building as needed, saving extra journeys, time and money
  • Make modifications to the live network and ask colleagues to re-run the tests moments later.
• Coverage visibility studies: assessing network coverage and quality at VIP client premises, new indoor commercial or residential sites
• Regular DT & coverage campaigns: identify network coverage gaps and help Planning Teams to set the priorities for new recommended sites, and accurately design network improvements
• Single Site Verification, pre & post measurements for all acceptance activities

INOS use cases include investigative drive tests, single-site verification, cluster benchmarking, indoor testing, customer complaint & VIP handling, IoT testing.

RAI (Radio Artificial Intelligence) is Digis Squared’s main enabler for network optimisation.

This sophisticated Digis Squared tool assists MNOs and Communications Service Providers to minimize performance management efforts and costs. It is used to determine the best set of improvement actions that give our clients the power to enhance and maintain their mobile user experience. Powered by AI-analysis, RAI empowers operators to address and resolve network challenges efficiently.

• Unify the customer experience and brand implementation across all channels.
• Customer can pay bills, top-up (own account or others), purchase from operator or merchant by using a registered credit card, mobile wallet, charge-on-bill, from balance, with a voucher, or pay via payment company.
• 360 degree view across all customer payments: securely integrated with customer facing and customer services systems, plus operator backend systems and databases.
• Business confidence: encrypted, PCI DSS / PA DSS, with full reporting, fraud detection, chargeback and reconciliation.

Physical shop & digital journey

• Use our capability to help you navigate and complete the digital journey in physical shops, by empowering customers to view product catalogues through interactive screens, validating eligibility and purchase with minimal or no sales-agent intervention.
• Alternatively, we can create a bespoke mobile app for your customers to download (from your website, or trigger via a QR-code in-store), and then the customer can manage the digital journey on their phone – combining the reassurance of interacting with their own device, and the benefit of seeing the physical product in-store.

Product catalogue & KYC

• A lite product catalogue layer is used to interact with digital channels, and isolate them from backend issues and delays.
• Apply business rules and KYC (know your customer) functionality and eligibility checks as needed.

Order management efficiency

• We capture the order lifecycle from creation through to notifying end-customers of final order confirmation.
• The engine orchestrates the order, invoking validation steps and fulfilment processes, isolating the digital channels from backend issues or delays.
