YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Making Fibre Expansion Profitable Beyond Urban Areas
- Fibre networks now reach more than 7 million Dutch homes, yet lower-density areas bring higher civil-work costs, slower take-up and complex access planning.
- YCP helps operators prioritise rollout zones, refine wholesale models and build investment cases that balance coverage ambitions with sustainable returns.
Defending Margins in a Highly Competitive Market
- Three national mobile networks and multiple fibre providers intensify price competition, while customers increasingly expect converged, high-speed services at low cost.
- Through customer segmentation, pricing strategy and portfolio redesign, YCP helps providers protect value while improving retention and cross-selling.
Converting 5G Spectrum into Enterprise Growth
- The 2024 3.5 GHz auction allocated 300 MHz across three operators, increasing pressure to turn network investment into tangible consumer and enterprise revenue.
- YCP connects 5G network choices with industry use cases, partnership models and go-to-market plans that create clearer routes to monetisation.
Strengthening Resilience Under Rising Security Demands
- Telecom networks face growing cyber risks and stricter NIS2-related obligations, requiring stronger governance, incident readiness and third-party oversight.
- YCP supports practical resilience roadmaps, aligning security controls, operating models and compliance priorities without losing focus on service continuity.
