Executive Summary (1/3)<br />

> Telecommunication <strong>service</strong>s are undifferentiated and commoditized, competition is<br />

fierce, ,pressure on margins high, ,growth in established markets negative<br />

> Incumbent opera<strong>to</strong>rs are desperately trying <strong>to</strong> differentiate through better <strong>service</strong>,<br />

challengers through price; the impact of new <strong>product</strong>s and <strong>service</strong>s on the <strong>to</strong>p line is<br />

not visible<br />

> With the ever evolving technology and new and more complex <strong>product</strong>s, incumbent<br />

opera<strong>to</strong>rs have potentially a powerful asset they can leverage: their technical field<br />

<strong>service</strong> organization and capabilities<br />

> Companies in similar circumstances, e.g. computer or telecoms HW (like IBM, HP,<br />

Dell, Ericsson etc.) or printing (Xerox etc.) have demonstrated, that <strong>service</strong> can be an<br />

attractive "second leg" <strong>to</strong> stand on providing growth and better margins<br />

> In order <strong>to</strong> establish a <strong>service</strong> revenue stream in its own right, i.e. not as an addendum<br />

<strong>to</strong> a <strong>product</strong>, it is important <strong>to</strong> provide the right platform from which <strong>to</strong> grow<br />
