How we can add value

Telco to Techco transformation

As Telcos diversify their revenue streams and business models to transform into Techcos, they need to rethink their business architectures, workforce and reporting structures as a modular, scalable and secure system of capabilities that can support any number of business models. PwC can support your transformation from Telco to Techco to Ready-for-whatever-nextco.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)

Telcos need to demonstrate how they create value - for shareholders and for society - through insightful, balanced and trusted performance and disclosure.  PwC can help you create sustained outcomes that drive value and fuel growth, whilst strengthening our environment and societies. We help you drive meaningful change and achieve measurable value.

Workforce of the Future

The world of work continues to change. Keeping up with the unknown realities of tomorrow means transforming today's traditional business practices into flexible practices that can adapt with changing tides. PwC can help you adopt new ways of working and build a culture of innovation and growth. Create a future-ready workforce to lead in new ways. The future of work is here.

Customer (front office) transformation

Customer experience is critical to drive loyalty and customer retention. Telco operators need to make customer-centricity a priority, employing service solutions that are human-led and tech-powered to create seamless experiences across their expanding product portfolios. PwC can help you enable digital transformation processes to drive personalised customer experiences.

Cybersecurity

As the number of connected devices continues to grow, cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly critical issue in the telecommunications industry. Network operators need to invest in secure infrastructure and adopt measures to protect against cyber threats and fraud.
