The future of the telecommunication industry is an exciting future. No longer can these companies depend on telephone service plans to maintain profit.

One month has to look at competition since the early 1990’s, especially since the act 1996 act. The most effective competition has come from technology evolution that enabled multiple platforms with different product-characteristics and economics to compete. They, in turn, then forced each other into cycles of further innovation. When the telecommunications act of 1996 has passed, there were hints of incipient competition in both the long-distance and video-distribution markets as a result of new technology. Local telephony was still essentially a monopoly. Although wireless was thriving, it was seen primarily as a purely mobile service.”

At the telecommunications company, the more crucial operations are represented by the development of new technology and its integration with the already existent systems, in order to ensure sustained functionality and continuous

     In today’s telecommunication market there is a lot of competition by industry giants such as Sprint,

The business case presented focuses on insatiable demand amongst a growing population for a service built on dilapidated, poorly maintained infrastructure, against a backdrop of government deregulation in the telecoms sector. As of 1992, there were a mere 78k telephone lines for the 27m people living in 4.7m households (a population set to double over the coming 24 years), with users suffering success rates of just 25%. Demand was forecast to grow to 500k subscribers by 1996. The recent deregulation of the telecoms sector (via the break-up of TPTC into TPC and TTCL) and the formation of a regulator (TCC) had
