Initiatives examples : - NPS modeling : understand how the network variables affect the NPS score of the company and use them to predict the detractors. - Click Attribution : Comprehend the customer journey step-by-step using a Markov Chain approach -Court Decisions : Predict the probability of a lost cause as well as the amount of the sentence involved in the legal case so Nextel can attempt to sign agreements when it makes sense - Complains : Using variables linked to the use profile of the customers, identify cases of high complain probability and take action preventively - Network degradation study : Comprehend the concepts of KQIs such as RTT, Lost Packages and Retransmission rate.
