Engineering the 5G World
June 19, 20205G is the next big leap in communications technology. It is set to advance the current age of wireless connectivity by ushering in monumental improvements in performance and efficiency, driving significant changes in the way a cellular network and its enabling infrastructure are engineered. 5G has considerably impacted the telecom industry’s engineering priorities and has brought to the fore specific engineering imperatives corresponding to the impact themes. For the telecom ecosystem’s consumption side, 5G’s advanced network performance characteristics will empower new user experiences by transforming human-to-human, human-to-machine, and machine-to-machine interactions across all key industry segments. Though the global adoption of 5G has been picking up momentum, the COVID-19 crisis has posed some roadblocks, impacting the Engineering Research & Development (ER&D) spend on 5G rollout. Thus, the commercial rollout of 5G is likely to get impacted in the short-to-medium term. However, owing to its enhanced network performance characteristics, 5G will emerge as one of the top engineering priorities in the post COVID-19 scenario. This viewpoint provides insights on 5G technology, its impact on engineering activities in the telecom domain, and the specific engineering imperatives for the telecom provision ecosystem, primarily infrastructure providers, telecom service providers, end-device vendors, cloud vendors, start-ups, and academia. The viewpoint also presents multiple use cases across key industry segments that 5G is going to enable and enhance. Scope Industry: telecom (5G) Geography: global Contents In this viewpoint, we study the following topics: Core 5G technology components and the key network characteristics they enable Engineering imperatives for 5G providers and enablers 5G’s impact on consumers of telecom network services Implications of COVID-19 on the commercial rollout of 5G Fundamental convictions on the future outlook for 5G Membership(s) Engineering Services -

Leading the Pack: Trends for the Top 200 Engineering Research & Development (ER&D) Enterprises
Dec. 06, 2019In today’s world characterized by a constantly evolving technology landscape and rapidly changing customer needs, Engineering Research and Development (ER&D) has become a key contributor to an enterprise’s ability to differentiate itself and stay competitive in the market. Realizing this, companies are making strategic investments in ER&D to stay ahead in the technology race and introduce innovative products quickly. In this research, Everest Group deep dives into the global ER&D market and assesses the global top 200 enterprises with the highest ER&D spend across eight key industries, with special focus on the companies’ key investment priorities and technologies driving ER&D spend. The global business spend on ER&D activities increased by 4% in 2018 to reach US$740 billion; enterprises featured in this report accounted for approximately 56% of this spend. Our research also shows that while use cases around Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Internet of Things (IoT), and blockchain continue to be implemented in industries as diverse as medical devices, consumer electronics, and automotive, industry-specific themes such as 5G, 5nm chip technology, electric and autonomous vehicles, and immersive technologies in consumer electronic goods have also come to the fore. Additionally, the report provides industry-level insights on enterprise R&D spend growth, R&D intensity (R&D spend as a percentage of revenue), and a timeline of recent R&D initiatives and investments. Given that enterprises are increasingly engaging with service providers to leverage talent, technology, and process know-how, the report also lays out the implications for engineering service providers.
