Pipe Dreams and Beyond:
How are Service Providers Viewing Capex? |

Yeo Senior Program Manager

Today's challenging business environment
continues to weigh heavily on the telcommunications
market. Gone are the days of hefty spending. Against
this backdrop, service providers need to continue
to invest wisely for the near future as demand among
their customers shifts. Service Providers need to
weigh the cost of deploying and supporting all the
different service types that may be in demand in
the marketplace against the expected revenue stream.
Miss Yeo will examine IDC's latest results from
its carrier capital expenditure tracker and service
providers' current and future network equipment
expenditure for the Asia/Pacific region. |

The past three years of economic and
political uncertainties have posed a challenge to
service providers across Asia/Pacific. Meeting their
financial charter required not only managing costs,
but also looking for growth opportunities amidst
their reduced capital expenditures. This presentation
will give you an insight into how service providers
salvage mismatched data, disconnected processes
and recover from lost revenues and stranded network
assets through prudent IT investments in the telecom
space. |
