This report constitutes the non-financial part of the Periodic Report to be delivered two months after the end of the period (M20).

Project handbook

Set-up of management procedures and documentation handbook.

Initial design of 5G End-to-End Service Platform

This deliverable will present the gap analysis made over 5G-TRANSFORMER and other 5G systems in terms of functional and technical requirements to satisfy 5Growth use cases. This deliverable will use 5G-TRANSFORMER system design as a baseline, including vertical slicer, service orchestrator, resource layer and interfaces among them, to propose an initial 5G end-to-end system design that incorporate functional and technical innovations (e.g. algorithms, new functional blocks and interfaces).

Specification of ICT17 in-house deployment

Deliverable containing the technical solution for an in-house business validation of the vertical use cases.

Techno-economic analysis and business model validation methodology

Development of a techno-economic analysis focused on the defined business models and identification of the methodology that will be used to validate the business model.

This deliverable will report the achievements of WP5 during the first year and will present an update of the Communication, Dissemination, and Exploitation Plan (CoDEP) after the initial phase of the project.

Initial Communication, Dissemination, and Exploitation Plan (CoDEP) draft including Standardization roadmap

Report on the initial CoDEP Plan and the roadmap for the coordinated standardization activities.

Service and core KPI specification

Definition of service and core KPIs, and their relationships.
