Industry that combines two different mediums of telecommunication and claims no two businesses are alike – The integrated telecommunication services industry

Integrated Telecommunication services industry is the industry that has companies who specialize in integrating two forms of communication that are different in one form or the other. It can be in the way that information is sent to the cell phone via laptop; a fax sent trough a fax machine but received by e-mail by many receivers. The industry has been established for a long period now and has established footmarks. It works by making certain protocols that allow information sent by one medium to be translated into other. This is the whole concept of integrated telecommunication services.

The industry provides voice, data, cellular and video solutions to businesses around the world and is in high demand over the recent past because of two reasons. One being that there is an increased reliance over the internet and technology in private and public corporations and secondly the means or mediums of telecommunication are increasing day by day which gives a lot of choice and hence requires some kind of integration in order to communicate e.g. wireless and wired technologies.

This analysis shows that the industry has done a good deal of work and demand seems to be rising. Industry experts have observed an increase of 12% over the last 2 years in terms of revenue. The cost structure is complex and highly capital intensive as it involves development of protocols etc. The labor required is skilled and therefore is costly and rare however, the industry has been expanding and because barriers to entry are low there is a very high threat from competitors. Due to this very reason companies need to be flexible and agile if they want to gain competitive advantage.
