Build the Workforce Behind the AI-Native Telco.
5G, cloud, AI, Open RAN, edge and autonomous network operations change what telco work is — while legacy expertise and safety-critical field work remain the backbone. DISHA prepares people and operating models with evidence-first workforce intelligence.
How do we prepare people and operating models for 5G, cloud, AI, Open RAN, edge and autonomous network operations?

Tangible Business Outcomes & Measurement
Every outcome is a measured KPI with a baseline, intervention, measurement period, data source, owner and target. Illustrative figures below are placeholders for YOUR data.
| KPI | Baseline → Target (illustrative) | Period · Source · Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Next-gen network role readiness | 29% → 62% (illustrative) | Per wave · Genome + planning · Owner: CTO+CHRO |
| Legacy-to-cloud transition completion | 38% → 66% (illustrative) | Rolling year · LMS + Genome · Owner: CHRO |
| Critical security skill coverage | 2.0 → 3.5 deep (illustrative) | Quarterly · Genome · Owner: CISO |
| AI-adoption readiness (ops & service) | 41% → 74% (illustrative) | Quarterly · Readiness · Owner: CIO |
Illustrative scenario shown in the product demo — real figures come from your connected, validated data with published measurement definitions.
THE HUMAN LAYER
Tower Work Is Expert Work
Climbers, splicers and network engineers carry safety-critical, hard-won capability. Workforce intelligence keeps that capability certified, transferable and growing — and never converts people into utilization scores.
