Powering the data-driven future

Globe won SilverStevie® for the 2025 Stevie Technology Awards.

The award-winning nominations showcase three high-impact data and analytics programs led or supported by Enterprise Data & Strategic Services (EDS), working with various teams around the world:

• Next Best Quotation (NBO) – Constituted by the Globe Rewards team, Hee HeeT Fiew Tribe works with EDS.
• Customer Experience Management (CEM) Program – by Globe Customer Experience, Network Technology Group and EDS.
• True modern open data architecture – EDS & Globe information system group.

These initiatives reflect Globe’s strategic efforts to improve enterprise-wide analytical maturity, optimize performance and improve customer outcomes.

A key milestone is the deployment of the Next Best Quotation (NBO) engine, an AI-powered platform that generates 5 billion ratings per week and offers 2.5 billion personalized offers twice a week. The platform has increased campaign efficiency by +304% and increased acceptance of offers by 317%, which clearly demonstrates data-driven personalized ROI.

Customer Experience Management (CEM) plans (capable of real-time customer experience index (CEI)) enable faster and greater market responsive decisions. This resulted in incremental revenues at 420 locations and helped reduce customer complaints by 20%. The CEI dashboard now facilitates hourly monitoring of network quality, reducing problem resolution time by 30%.

At the same time, Globe has become an early adopter of truly modern open architecture, implementing Apache Iceberg V2 in a cloud locale. Transformation improves “insight”, reducing ETL execution time by 90%, and savings of 84-93% of costs. For example, one use case shows that processing time is reduced from 23 minutes to just 1 minute.

These innovations underscore Globe’s long-term commitment to becoming a data-intelligent, AI-enabled organization where technology is not only a capability, but a competitive advantage.
