AbstractSmall- and Medium-Sized Businesses Keys to Market Opportunities
The widespread adoption of information technology, the Internet, and
advanced telecommunications tools has changed the way Americans conduct
business by doubling production in an efficient and cost-effective manner.
While small- to medium-size enterprises account for more than 95 percent of
all U.S. business establishments, they are the most underserved in terms of
high-speed data access services, offering participants new areas for growth.
This Frost & Sullivan research evaluates the potential for major technology
choices in business data access service markets, including DSL, T1/T3, ISDN,
and broadband wireless services. It examines market drivers and restraints
and presents accurate forecasts for each segment. With such an insightful
guide to the future of the field, your firm will be poised to maximize
its revenues.
Open Access Issues Impact Smaller Participants
Open access to the telecommunications infrastructure remains a critical issue
in the business data access service industry. "Although the Federal
Communications Commission ruled that incumbent local exchange carriers
(ILECs) must allow competitors to share the main telephone lines into homes,
ILECs still own most of the copper wiring in the market," notes the study's
author. "Consequently, ILECs have a significant competitive advantage both in
terms of provisioning time and economics."
If regulators open long-distance lines to ILECs, these carriers could further
strengthen their position. "Allowing ILECs to carry data across long distance
boundaries would cause a cataclysmic change in the data market," says the
author. This study assesses the impact of changing regulatory issues on the
marketplace, enabling your company to better prepare for what lays ahead.
Economic Downturn Threatens to Impede Market Growth
"The overall economic downturn is making it difficult for companies to
negotiate and obtain necessary financing and operational capital," says the
author. As businesses strive to reduce operational costs to survive, potential
customers of business data access services will select solutions primarily
based on price.
Meanwhile, service providers will find themselves struggling to turn a profit as
they try to keep prices low despite their own high capital investment costs.
"Not every service provider in the market has the resources, scale, and
customer base to support such a long lead time to profitability." This study
pinpoints the challenges that market participants will face and highlights
winning strategies, helping your company develop an effective business plan.
