Managed IP Solutions:
Global Service Providers
Rise to the Challenge

| August 15, 2008 | Business Technology Services - Europe | Advisory Report

| Analyst: Sandra O'Boyle, Research Director, Business Telecom Services Europe

Managed IP Service solutions are made up of a range of enterprise services provided by network operators, managed service providers and system integrators that manage network-centric applications that run over enterprise customers´ networks. These solutions are emerging to address the requirements of multinational corporations for more outsourcing of communications and IT services as corporations reduce their IT staff levels and outsource more and more of their network and IT operations.

“IP convergence has blurred the lines of engagement between network-centric telcos and application-centric system integrators,” said Sandra O’Boyle, Current Analysis Research Director, Business Telecom Services Europe. “Outsourcing deals involving the management of a global IP network that runs business-critical applications require telcos to have further skills in both IT and networking. The carrier-SI engagement model will become increasingly important and carriers and SIs need to know when and how to partner effectively.”

The Current Analysis Advisory Report includes a comparison of the strengths and weaknesses of current Managed IP Service solutions from BT, Orange Business Services, T-Systems, AT&T and Verizon Business. In addition, the report includes an assessment of the relative strengths of carriers versus SIs when delivering various managed solutions. Read Press Release.
