Intelligent Care
Deliver resilient, always-on network operations with AI-powered insights and expert-led decision-making for complex, multi-domain environments
Intelligent Care: Managing complexity in the AI-driven era
Nokia Intelligent Care is a new approach to network maintenance, designed for the complexity and criticality of today's AI-driven networks. Combining the speed of AI and its depth and breadth of data with the experience and judgment of human experts, Intelligent Care goes beyond standard ticket handling to assure the performance and reliability of your critical network infrastructure. In a world where infrastructure performance defines business success, reliability is non-negotiable, security must be continuous, and innovation cannot introduce risk. As network innovation accelerates, continuous change becomes the norm — Intelligent Care minimizes major disruptions and shortens service-impacting events.
Supercharged AI expertise
Nokia's AI-powered Intelligent Care is enriched by insights from millions of resolved cases across diverse network environments worldwide, combined with deep R&D and product knowledge across fixed, IP and optical networks. This enables confident resolution of complex, cross-domain and previously unseen issues.
Human-in-the-loop accountability
AI accelerates detection, analysis and resolution, and Nokia's AI-native Care experts validate every action before it impacts live services. This ensures faster, first-time-right outcomes while keeping you in control.
End-to-end, service-centric support
Intelligent Care moves beyond siloed, product-centric approaches to provide issue management across technologies, supported by intelligent swarming methodologies that immediately bring the best expertise to bear without layer-by-layer escalation.
Nokia Intelligent Care also provides value for stable, mature networks operating in simpler environments, improving MTTR by reducing the time required to detect failures, diagnose issues, execute repairs and confirm full system restoration.
Why complex, AI-enabled networks need a new care model
Networks are becoming more distributed, software-defined and multi-vendor. Hardware, software, cloud platforms, automation systems and operational tools are increasingly interdependent.
This means failures can cross product and domain boundaries, making root-cause identification and service restoration more difficult.
AI-assisted and increasingly autonomous operations add another dimension. Automated decisions need to be accurate, explainable and traceable.
When systems behave unexpectedly, customers need more than reactive product support. They need cross-domain expertise, visibility into system behavior and controlled intervention to restore operational stability.
The challenge is not just maintaining individual network elements. It is assuring the performance, resilience and trustworthiness of the complete operational system.

Maximize network availability, minimize risk, unlock full infrastructure value
With Nokia Intelligent Care, you can:
Protect business-critical operations
Nokia Intelligent Care is designed to deliver what AI alone cannot: accountability, oversight and control in your most critical situations.
Quickly resolve complex issues the first time
AI accelerates detection, analysis and resolution while Nokia's AI-native Care experts validate every action before it impacts live services. The result is reduced mean time to resolution (MTTR) and confident decision-making for complex scenarios with multiple resolution paths.
Gain deeper visibility across technologies
Replace siloed, product-centric support with end-to-end, service-centric issue management, providing clearer ownership and coordination across domains.
Control costs and extend infrastructure value
By handling complexity with greater clarity and speed, Intelligent Care helps optimize operational costs, reduce financial risk and extend the value of your infrastructure investments over the long term.
Stabilize faster when it matters most
In high-impact, business-critical situations, intelligent swarming methodologies bring the most relevant expertise to bear immediately, without layer-by-layer escalation, shortening the duration of service-impacting events.

Customer success stories
Frequently asked questions
Nokia Intelligent Care is a new approach to network service delivery that combines the speed of AI with the judgment of human expertise. Rather than only focusing on standard ticket handling, it is designed for complex, high-impact situations where network performance and business continuity are at stake.
Nokia's AI-native Care experts work alongside AI-driven tools to accelerate detection, analysis and resolution while validating every action before it impacts live services. The result is accountable, faster, and more accurate outcomes.
Nokia Intelligent Care also adds value for stable, mature networks operating in simpler environments, as it inherently accelerates detection, analysis, and resolution.
AI and automation accelerate customer operations but can also blur the root causes of failures.
When failures occur, technical engineers could face greater ambiguity in determining whether the root cause lies in the underlying system, the automation workflow, or the customer AI model itself, making troubleshooting and root cause analysis more challenging.
Multi-vendor environments add further complexity, combining hardware, software and automation controllers from multiple providers.
At the same time, the business impact of downtime is growing. In a real-time, AI-driven economy, a single outage can translate directly into lost revenue and reputational damage at scale.
Traditional break/fix models are no longer sufficient for this level of complexity and criticality.
Nokia's AI is powered by insights from millions of resolved cases across diverse global network environments, combined with deep R&D and product history and knowledge. This accelerates troubleshooting, reduces MTTR and minimizes manual intervention.
However, AI cannot operate autonomously in complex, high-risk scenarios. It lacks the ability to interpret intricate, multi-domain network behaviors and cannot manage unforeseen or unprecedented events.
Nokia intentionally combines AI with human experience and judgement to ensure that every AI action is validated before it impacts live services.
AI provides speed and large-scale analytical power, but judgment must come from experienced professionals. Nokia's AI-native Care experts can see beyond isolated data signals, interpret ambiguity, insert nuance into the judgement, and make informed decisions in situations AI alone cannot resolve.
Before any action is implemented on a live network, it is validated by a human expert to prevent unintended consequences. This “human-in-the-loop model” ensures decisions are not only fast but also safe, giving you confidence and operational control.
With Intelligent Care, Nokia Care experts remain accountable for the final decision to improve the accuracy and reliability of AI.
With Nokia Intelligent Care, customers can expect faster resolution of complex, high-impact issues, improved accuracy through AI-driven analysis and reduced operational risk through clear human accountability. The model helps customers transition from less predictable cost incident exposure to controlled, reliable outcomes, while securing the value of asset infrastructure investments.
Nokia Intelligent Care is based on intelligent swarming, bringing in critical situations the best expertise to bear immediately, without layer-by-layer escalation.
Nokia Intelligent Care covers your connectivity across fixed, IP and optical networks, providing integrated, service-centric support across technologies rather than fragmented, product-by-product care.
