Service Provider Project Case
Carrier Managed CPE Programme
Automated provisioning required every deployed router to be functionally identical yet supply came in inconsistent batches
Client Background
Who The Client Is
A regional carrier delivering managed connectivity to small and medium business subscribers
Project Challenge
The Constraint That Mattered
Automated provisioning required every deployed router to be functionally identical yet supply came in inconsistent batches
Customer Pain Points
What Was Actually Going Wrong
- Hardware revision differences between batches broke the automated provisioning template
- Monthly volumes exceeded what the local channel would allocate in a single quarter
- Serial records were needed per batch for the subscriber asset system
Our Solution
What We Did About It
A monthly consignment of one router model was scheduled against a rolling forecast with serial lists supplied per batch and revision consistency confirmed before shipment.
Manufacturing And Process
How The Work Was Sequenced
- 1
Rolling twelve month forecast agreed so allocation could be positioned ahead of demand
- 2
Hardware revision confirmed against the provisioning template before each release
- 3
Serial lists issued per batch in the format the subscriber system imports
- 4
Monthly consignments released on a fixed calendar
Supply Chain Coordination
How Supply Risk Was Removed
Forecast driven allocation removed the quarterly ceiling that the local channel imposed
Quality Control
What Was Checked On Every Unit
Seal check serial capture and revision verification on every batch
Final Result
Outcome
Provisioning automation has run without a hardware driven exception since the programme started
Customer Benefit
What Changed Afterwards
Predictable monthly supply and a serial record that reconciles to the subscriber system

FAQ
Questions About This Project
Could You Deliver a Programme Like This for Us
Yes. The shape transfers directly. What changes is the site count the change window rules and the documentation format your audit requires.
How Far Ahead Should We Start
For a multi wave programme start the availability and allocation conversation before the standard is fixed. That is the point where a discontinuation is cheap to design around.
What Held the Price Stable
Allocating programme quantity up front. Once stock is positioned against an agreed quantity the price is no longer exposed to spot movement.
Do You Pack per Site
Yes. Packing per site rather than per part number is normal on multi site work and is usually the single biggest saving on install labour.
How Were Serial Records Handled
Serial lists were issued per consignment in a format the client asset register could import directly rather than reconciled at the end.
