OmniBOSS Phase III ================== When disaster strikes, communications infrastructure is often among the first critical systems to fail — and one of the last to recover. Modern telecom networks are designed with redundancy across domains, systems, and operators. Yet during large-scale crises, operators still restore services independently, relying on fragmented coordination processes at precisely the moment when speed and collaboration matter most. OmniBOSS Phase III challenges this model. Inspired by the devastating impact of Cyclone Ditwah in Sri Lanka — where severe flooding and landslides disrupted national communications and delayed relief operations — the project explores a new operational paradigm for the telecom industry: What if operators could dynamically compose networks across organisational boundaries, securely sharing infrastructure, systems, and operational capabilities in real time? From Redundancy to Composability ================================ OmniBOSS demonstrates how inter-operator network composability can fundamentally transform disaster response. By enabling operators to coordinate infrastructure, field operations, and network services across organisational boundaries, the industry can move from isolated recovery efforts to a unified, orchestrated response model. This enables operators to: - Restore life-saving connectivity within the critical search-and-rescue window - Dynamically combine network capabilities across operators to accelerate restoration - Coordinate networks, systems, and field teams in real time during emergencies - Prioritise and protect critical communications for emergency services, healthcare, government, and security agencies - Maintain continuity of essential digital services, including mobile financial platforms such as M-PESA and bKash - Improve operational coordination and logistics through shared situational awareness Delivered Through a Real-Time Composable Architecture ===================================================== The solution combines: - A geofenced digital twin simulating disaster impact and network degradation - Real-time orchestration across operators and domains - A governance and policy framework enabling secure, controlled collaboration - A distributed AI-driven coordination layer supporting triage, prioritisation, and field response Together, these capabilities create a shared operational environment where multiple CSPs can respond as a coordinated ecosystem rather than isolated networks. Collaboration by Design ======================= Cross-operator collaboration must be trusted, secure, and commercially sustainable. OmniBOSS addresses this through: - Policy-driven data sharing with strict governance controls - Geofenced and abstracted data models protecting competitive and regulatory boundaries - Full auditability of operational decisions and actions - Transparent cost allocation, commitment tracking, and automated settlement between operators This enables collaboration that is not only technically achievable — but operationally viable at industry scale. Standards-Driven, Real-World Execution ====================================== OmniBOSS Phase III extends TM Forum standards into real-time, multi-operator emergency coordination. The solution is built on TM Forum's ODA and Open APIs It includes innovation and contributions in: - Emergency coordination and composability APIs - Trust, policy, and governance frameworks - Real-time event-driven collaboration models Bridging the gap between standards-based architecture and live operational execution. Key Benefits at a Glance ======================== - Faster restoration of critical communications during disaster response - Real-time coordination across operators, systems, and field operations - Policy-driven prioritisation of emergency and critical infrastructure services - Continuity of essential digital and financial services for affected populations - Governed collaboration with full transparency, auditability, and commercial accountability Turning weeks of disruption into days — and days into hours.
