      • Key Quality and Value measurement discussion

        • Quality side

          • A lot of this subjective until we see deployment.

          • Once we do see deployment, then what should we start to observe

            • As a vendor: what do we see in the RFIs and RFQs

              • g. badge required, not required (it is becoming real)

              • g. is the badge mandatory (i.e. if you don’t have badge won’t buy from you)

              • g. do we need a survey/poll? How close are we for telcos to mandate as a gate?

            • As operator:

              • Common activities vs. special sauce–focus on common activities

              • Business case; the common framework is taking a longer time range.

              • Can we capture deployment time frames?

            • How many VNFs have badging on their product development roadmap?

            • How many VNFs have badging?

            • How many Operators have the RA on their architectural design roadmaps? By RAx?

            • Are we seeing convergence between roadmaps (Supplier / Operator)

            • Do separate polls for Operators vs. Vendors?

            • How skeptical or optimist?

          • Value side (subjective value, objective $$$)

            • Look for methods for value delivered

          • This data serves adoption strategy.

        • Do we need economic models, spreadsheet?

        • How do we move from ‘marketing’ to ‘actual’ data?

        • No public access to what it costs to deploy today?

          • Cost of testing, cost of procurement, costs of integration and customization?
