FNT Joins Forces with Industry Leaders in TM Forum Catalyst Project to Drive AI-Native Network Transformation
Ellwangen, Germany (May 16, 2025) – FNT Software, a global leader in software solutions for network inventory and infrastructure management, proudly announces its participation in the TM Forum Catalyst project “PIONEER – Predictive Intelligence for Optimized Networks & Enhanced Experience Resilience”, an ambitious collaboration driving the future of AI-native, self-optimizing telecom networks.
In partnership with global innovators including Dell Technologies and NVIDIA, the PIONEER Catalyst aims to demonstrate how unified telecom inventory, generative agentic AI, and horizontal data layer architectures can fundamentally transform network operations and customer experience.
This Catalyst focuses on three key functionalities:
- Providing a horizontal universal data access and storage layer for inventory and AI
- Delivering an end-to-end inventory visibility across RAN and IP Transport domains
- Accelerating troubleshooting and operations through Copilot and Agentic AI
To achieve Level 4 Network Autonomy, a unified, holistic view and multi-domain inventory awareness is key. FNT Command Platform plays a pivotal role, acting as the unified inventory layer that provides a single source of truth across physical, logical, and virtual assets. With over 30 years of expertise, FNT delivers an AI-ready data model and end-to-end visibility that enables predictive analytics, intelligent automation, and closed-loop assurance.
“With PIONEER, we’re not just showcasing innovation - we’re building the future of telecom operations,” said Carsten Wreth, CEO of FNT GmbH. “Together with our Catalyst partners, we’re proving that a unified, standards-based approach—anchored in trusted inventory data—is the key to enabling Level 4 Autonomous Networks”.
The PIONEER Catalyst will be showcased at DTW Ignite on June 17-19, 2025, in Copenhagen, demonstrating the real-world feasibility and business value of this AI-native OSS strategy for Telecoms. TM Forum’s Catalyst program provides a collaborative environment to co-create innovative solutions that accelerate digital transformation across the telecom ecosystem.
