Transforming Network Management: Cyient and 3-GIS Partnership
In a groundbreaking move, Cyient Limited, a global leader in lifecycle engineering services, has forged a strategic alliance with 3-GIS, a premier provider of network management software tailored for telecommunications and utility sectors. This partnership aims to help telecom operators and utility companies convert their sprawling network data into actionable operational insights.
The Challenge of Managing Network Data
As telecommunication companies accelerate the expansion of fiber optics and utility providers modernize critical infrastructure, the challenge of managing network data has evolved. It is no longer just about data collection; the pertinent challenge is ensuring that this data remains accurate, interconnected, and usable within complex operational frameworks. Traditionally, companies navigated the labyrinth of data management by outsourcing different components to multiple providers, leading to fragmented operations.
In response, Cyient and 3-GIS are consolidating their services into a unified offering. Cyient brings over three decades of expertise in serving telecom and utility firms, boasting a solid experience in managing and migrating over 650 million network data elements through extensive programs. This experience spans fiber network design, geographic information system (GIS) implementations, asset management, field services, and network modernization initiatives.
The Power of 3-GIS Platform
3-GIS, known for its cloud-native and configurable software, serves as a data repository for critical infrastructure networks. Telecommunications providers utilize this innovative platform for the planning, design, inventory management, construction, and operation of both fiber and copper networks. On the other hand, power and gas companies rely on it for network management, asset inspection, field services, and shared asset management.
Through their partnership, Cyient and 3-GIS will allow clients to acquire not just the platform itself but also the necessary services for its deployment and operation, all through a single collaborative model. This integrated approach is designed to streamline operations and cut down on the complexities associated with multitier vendor agreements.
Integrating CYiNGINE with 3-GIS
To further enhance service delivery, Cyient plans to integrate 3-GIS into CYiNGINE, its engineering intelligence platform. CYiNGINE combines domain expertise, managed data, and AI-driven playbooks across the entire engineering and service lifecycle. This integration will empower customers to derive greater value from their network data while improving operational efficiency and decision-making processes.
Arunav Roy, Senior Vice President and Market Unit Head of Connectivity, Utilities, and Spatial Intelligence at Cyient, emphasized the importance of accurate network records in achieving sustainable growth. He stated, "Whether it's a telecom operator expanding fiber or a utility firm reconciling asset records, the same core need arises: accurate network records. Otherwise, growth can lead to rework, risks, and loss of reliability instead of profit. This partnership allows us to provide operators—a single point of accountability for everything from data migration to daily operations, rather than juggling multiple vendors."
Dustin Sutton, General Manager of 3-GIS, noted that their solutions are essential for how telecom and utility companies build and operate their critical networks globally. The expansion of their partnership with Cyient is a pivotal step towards leveraging a strong network of partners to offer seamless support and product delivery across multiple markets.
