Be the Force Behind the Broadband Evolution

The UK business broadband market is evolving and the opportunity for Communications Providers (CPs) has never been greater. Businesses are actively seeking faster, more reliable connectivity and better value. The urgency is clear: 71% of business leaders say poor broadband harms operations, and the average employee loses 38 hours a year due to connectivity issues. Thankfully, the barriers to switching are coming down. Simplified processes, clearer requirements and reduced risk of disruption are making it easier than ever for businesses to move to better services with confidence. This shift is unlocking growth, fueling competition and driving innovation across the broadband sector. For CPs ready to lead, the moment is now. With proven expertise, innovative solutions and commitment to seamless connectivity, TNS is ready to help break down barriers, simplify switching and accelerate growth in the new era of broadband competition.

Built for Business Success: TOTSCo and CSF Ready

In the UK, business broadband switching can follow two key architectural approaches.

  • Single destination model through TOTSCo
  • Distributed model via Switching for Business as outlined in the Gaining Provider Led Business (GPLB) process

As a trusted Managed Access Provider (MAP), TNS supports both models, offering the flexibility and expertise CPs need to align with their business strategy and operational goals. CPs rely on TNS’s Managed Access Gateway (MAG) platform to simplify and accelerate the switching process. By enabling real-time coordination between gaining and losing providers, TNS delivers a seamless, efficient experience that results in reduced errors, lower costs and improved business outcomes.
