Zzoomm
Technology
Supply and demand research and visualisations for the broadband network.
Context
Zzoomm is a full fibre broadband service providing premium technologies across the UK. Their goal is to provide over one million homes with their high speed connectivity, across roughly 200 market towns.
The brief
Zzoomm required sophisticated geographical data analysis to understand the most suitable areas across the UK to provide their service. They also wished to improve operational efficiency in a number of areas by improving their reporting process, and assessing team performances.
Data
DH Productions first carried out supply and demand research for the fibre broadband network. Through big data analysis using the programming language Python, we were able to provide insights that have directly influenced Zzoomm’s network build decision process, contributing to the strategy of reaching over one million homes across the UK. This project had a very broad objective and many possible routes to a solution, there were a number of technical challenges to overcome.
DH were then tasked with improving Zzoomm’s reporting system, while a much larger changeover of software continued internally. This was yet another significant piece of programming, organising data and producing helpful KPIs and visualisations so that Zzoomm could better monitor their business success.
Zzoomm also required the assessment of certain build teams’ productivity, and so by analysing vehicle data and other key metrics, DH offered insights into areas for potential improvement.
