Telecommunications operators are caught in an operational squeeze. Networks generate petabytes of telemetry every day. Customer expectations demand instant, personalized service across every channel. And operations teams are expected to predict and resolve issues before they become outages.
Traditional tools weren’t built for this velocity. Siloed systems can’t keep pace with the complexity of modern networks, and manual processes create bottlenecks that delay critical decisions.
Agentic AI changes the equation.
Microsoft’s AI Playbook for Telecommunications shows how leading operators are moving from proofs of concept to production scale AI that delivers measurable impact across customer engagement, network operations, workforce productivity, and new revenue streams.
What you’ll learn in this playbook:
How agentic AI acts as a control plane connecting your network, IT systems, and business operations into a unified intelligence layer
Why Microsoft’s integrated stack reduces integration costs and accelerates time to value compared to fragmented multi-vendor approaches
Practical frameworks for unifying subscriber data, network telemetry, and business intelligence with Microsoft Fabric and Azure AI Foundry
Real deployment outcomes from Telstra, Vodafone, Telefónica, T-Mobile, and Telkomsel showing measurable gains in customer satisfaction, operational efficiency, and workforce productivity
The Agent Factory operating model that standardizes design reviews, safety evaluations, and production monitoring so you can scale AI across the enterprise
A 12-week implementation path that takes you from alignment to production rollout with clear milestones and success metrics
The results speak for themselves
Telstra’s generative AI tools helped 90% of employees save time, with interactions requiring 20% less follow-up. Vodafone’s Microsoft 365 Copilot deployment returned an average of four hours per week per user. Telefónica España improved network performance by transitioning analytics from batch processes to near real-time decision making.
