Abstract

The disclosed system defines a hierarchical subdivision of a geographic area including a unit, a cluster, a region, and an area, where the area includes multiple regions, the region includes multiple clusters, and the cluster includes multiple units. The system obtains KPIs associated with a unit and obtains a network score for the cluster by combining each KPI associated with each unit in the cluster. The system obtains a competitor network score associated with a competing network. Based on the competitor network score and the network score, the system can determine whether the cluster, the region, and the area are performing satisfactorily.
