5G Core Network Project Plan and Transition Plan - Key Considerations for China Telecom

5G Core Network Project Plan and Transition Plan - Key Considerations for China Telecom

Part 1 Project Plan/ Resources and Part 2 Transition Plan / Resources:

• Update the Project plans for Part 1 and Part 2 to reflect the agile plan presented in the CAS session.* Describe the dependencies between those and obligations towards BASF and the O&M partner.* Consider that the site is still under construction. Therefore, please consider for the 5G core one move of your infrastructure from intermediate secondary DC building in second DC building to final building at a later stage.* Consider to provide impact to project financials in case of extension of timeline.* Update expected BASF Resource commitment accordingly.

RFP Part 2:

• Technical support services options are Telephone, remote and On-site Support. BASF uses MS Teams, email and ticketing tools to interact with suppliers and address issues & requests. Please, confirm that China Telecom is able and willing to support the BASF way of supplier interaction?

Part 2:

• For public wireless networks it is regulated that you have mandatory real name registration for the SIM cards. Does the same apply to private 5G network implementation too, or is this not regulated for the private 5G network?

Part 2 Addendum 2 Section 2.2.7:

• Does the O&M management platform allows to implement different level of user rights and English language view (full feature set)?

Part 2:

• We expect that the Service and especially the O&M integration and the platform tools exposed to BASF authorized users are available in English as per Exhibit 1 'Service Catalog'.

Beside the Service Levels we have asked for, what KPIs are included in the China Telecom O&M platform (e.g. Monitoring of solution) and are those customizable or can new KPIs be added if system counters are available?
