SWOT for Ericsson WEAKNESSES
While we have good exec/VP/Director level relationships- we need to leverage it to turn into revenue Lack of tools in general ; GINA’s readiness Thought Leadership- being 2 steps ahead Solutions Diversification of Services/One trick pony STRENGTHS Relationships- Mapping and Account contacts across CU, Sourcing and operations Proven Track Record as ARP in RAN domain and with Managed Services team Understanding of internal processes Approved ARP Approved ASP under process with MSA being finalized Perform similar services at much lower costs than internal Ericsson OPPORTUNITIES Staffing – CSI domain; OSP engineers, GIS engineers, Cloud/NFV/SDN engineers; OSS/BSS engineers All Accounts – Driveless tuning Leverage GINA ATT DOT deployment Benchmarking/ Drive Testing=network quality/assurance E911 Accuracy Compliance Verification Multi-vendor microwave deployment for TMO and Sprint (?) OSP Engineering – ATT and Google THREATS OEM self performing with internal resources + offshoring centers in India and Mexico. Vendor Consolidation Competition is furious with large vendor pools across all domains Internal Politics and frequent internal changes

What did we sell in 2015? Ericsson Sales revenue till September: $637,000.00 Projected year end revenue of $726,000 Division Product Value Why did they buy from us? Optimization Staff Aug – EMS St. Louis Mkt $240k Relationships with Amy Kidwell and Merle Haslem (KC) Transport Engineer Staff Aug $178k Relationship MVV Enginer $40k Relationship + strong recruiting support OSP Engineer Staff Aug - $55k Microwave Services – Celone in AZ Turnkey – TDM to IP migration $124k Relationship with reasonable costs that internal Ericsson team couldn’t match (35% higher quote) TOTAL $637k

What did we not sell in 2015? Product Value
Why did they NOT buy from us? Who did they buy from and why? ATT OSP FTTC engineering $100k Higher driver pricing, Lack of MSA at the time and proper team of resources Competition had a forward thinking solution Google fiber deployment in San Jose >$1M GTA not self performing this work; had to apply for CA state construction license The awards were given out to few ASP’s; the work is delayed into Q1 2016 Comcast Wi-Fi access point survey $150k+ GTA only went after 33% of the markets; Ericsson awarded work to one ASP – potential sites Staffing positions – OSP, GIS, MRE engineers, CSI domain openings in software, OSS/BSS, cloud, SA etc $500k+ General shortage of OSP resources; Few candidates we found ended up taking roles with other ARP’s; Lack if our recruiting team’s knowledge and network in CSI areas Other ARP partners of Ericsson
