About The Customer
Swisscom is the leading telecommunications provider in Switzerland, with 5 million cell phone customers, 5.3 million fixed lines, and 1.6 million broadband connections. In 2007, the company’s 19,844 full-time employees generated revenues of CHF 11.1 billion. Swisscom offers a full range of mobile, fixed-line, and IP-based voice and data communication products and services. In addition to its core telecommunications services, Swisscom also provides IT infrastructure outsourcing and communications infrastructure management services. However, the company was facing challenges with its order process reporting, which was affecting its reputation and sales.
The Challenge
Swisscom, the leading telecommunications provider in Switzerland, was facing challenges with its order process reporting. The company was unable to proactively monitor orders, and the analysis of existing data was either extremely difficult or impossible. This led to frequent, time-consuming internal queries, often triggered by customer inquiries. The lack of transparency and efficiency in the process led to high frustration levels both internally and externally, damaging the company's reputation and resulting in lower sales. Swisscom needed a solution that would allow for the monitoring of all processes with problem alerts, transparent and fast reporting, easy measurement and display of KPIs, direct access to process information for various departments, and comprehensive project documentation.
The Solution
Swisscom evaluated eight different process monitoring solutions and chose ARIS Process Performance Manager (ARIS PPM), with ARIS Bridge as a generic adapter. The new system went live as planned on October 31, 2007. The ARIS PPM featured sophisticated process analysis functionality and a smart connection to the source system via the ARIS Bridge. During the project, Swisscom set up ProCore, a Web platform with standardized access for process management, design, performance, interface documentation, and project procedure activities. The process documentation was created with ARIS Business Architect and made available via Web export using ARIS Business Publisher. ARIS PPM was deployed to monitor order transactions, contracts, interface processes, and source system error reports. It extracts data from the source system relating to orders and contracts, including the complete provision of DSL access, from signing the contract at the point-of-sale through to billing.

Vodafone found that traffic for the applications peak during the four-month period when the international cricket season is at its height in Australia. During the 2011/2012 cricket season, 700,000 consumers downloaded the Cricket Live Australia application. Vodafone needed to be able to meet customer demand, but didn’t want to invest in additional resources that would be underutilized during cricket’s off-season.
