Powering a Data-Driven Future
Globe won a Silver Stevie® for Technology Team of the Year at the Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence 2025.
The winning nomination showcased three high-impact Data & Analytics initiatives led or supported by Enterprise Data & Strategic Services (EDS), in partnership with various teams across Globe:
Next Best Offer (NBO) – by Globe rewards team, Feel Valued Tribe, in collaboration with EDS.
Customer Experience Management (CEM) Program – by Globe Customer Experience , Network Technical Group & EDS.
True Modern Open Data Architecture – by EDS & Globe Information Systems Group.
These initiatives reflect Globe’s strategic push to advance enterprise-wide analytics maturity, optimize performance, and improve customer outcomes.
A key milestone is the deployment of the Next Best Offer (NBO) engine, an AI-driven platform that generates 5 billion scores weekly and delivers 2.5 billion personalized offers twice a week. The platform boosted campaign efficiency by +304% and increased offer acceptance by 317%, clearly demonstrating the ROI of data-driven personalization.
The Customer Experience Management (CEM) Program—powered by the real-time Customer Experience Index (CEI)—enabled faster, more market-responsive decisions. This led to incremental revenue across 420 locations and helped reduce customer complaints by 20%. The CEI dashboard now facilitates hourly monitoring of network quality, trimming issue resolution times by 30%.
Meanwhile, Globe also became an early adopter of True Modern Open Architecture, implementing Apache Iceberg v2 in a cloud-agnostic environment. The transformation improved “Time to Insight,” cutting ETL execution time by up to 90% and yielding 84–93% cost savings. For instance, one use case showed a drop in processing time from 23 minutes to just 1 minute.
These innovations underscore Globe’s long-term commitment to becoming a data-smart, AI-enabled organization, where technology is not just a capability—but a competitive advantage.
