Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) and Ooredoo Qatar have successfully executed an upgrade of Ericsson Adaptive Inventory (EAI), a cutting-edge network inventory management solution deployed across the communication service provider’s (CSP) networks, to meet growing technology demands. Covering different generations of networks, including 5G, the project leverages the latest advancements in telecommunications technology to expand the potential for digitalization and improve efficiency.

EAI empowers Ooredoo Qatar to streamline its operational environment with a single network view across systems, taking its inventory management to new heights. It will help Ooredoo Qatar optimize its network infrastructure and resource utilization, increase data visibility, accelerate workflows and improve operational efficiency. The enhanced capabilities of the modernized platform offer tangible customer-centric benefits, such as faster order processing, cost savings and exceptional data accuracy.

With this future-ready telecom inventory software, Ooredoo Qatar can efficiently manage its Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) while unlocking the potential for mobile, enterprise and data center inventory management.

Günther Ottendorfer, Chief Technology & Infrastructure Officer at Ooredoo Qatar, says: “Ericsson, a leader in the telecommunications industry, is a long-standing trusted partner on our journey of boosting our network capabilities.
