Telecom Managed Services Are Transforming Carrier Business Models

Network operators are turning to managed services and outsourcing not only to reduce their operating costs but also to transform business models to compete more effectively, a trend that will continue growing, according to a new report from Pyramid Research.

The telecom managed services sector is entering its third phase of development, characterized by a greater focus by operators on how to adapt to the changing dynamics of the industry and position themselves better for future opportunities, notes Elizabeth Bramson-Boudreau, Analyst at Large and author of the report. "Drivers of third-phase outsourcing include network sharing and the emergence of over-the-top (OTT) applications, such as social networking, that can, if allowed, bypass operators almost entirely," says Bramson-Boudreau.

Widespread adoption of telecom managed services will change the telecom landscape significantly in the coming decade, Bramson-Boudreau notes. As more carriers offload bigger portions of their network operations to trusted partners, telco business models will shift away from simple service provisioning, she explains. "The operator of the past - with full control over all network functions, monopolist-style attitudes toward customer service, and slow delivery of new services - is unlikely to exist in the future," she adds.

South Asia Mobile Market Shrugs off Recession, Prepares to Grow

The global economic downturn had little impact on the fast growth mobile markets of South Asia and the maritime countries of Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines). Led by India's 52% annual growth, subscriptions in the region rose 31% in 2009, noted Strategy Analytics.

Despite lower average revenue per user (ARPU), service revenues in the region increased by 11%, five times the global average. They are forecast to grow at an average of 5% per year through 2015. "There is a lot of untapped demand in the area," notes Tom Elliott, Director of EMCS. "Price cutting and per-second billing from operators like Tata and Bharti Airtel are making mobile service affordable for a lot of new customers."

Serving these new customers profitably will be a challenge for operators. "With more new customers coming from rural areas and smaller cities, ARPU will fall while building out infrastructure and distributing handsets will be more expensive," according to Rahul Gupta, India Senior Manager for EMCS. Operators will have to look for efficiencies anywhere they can, their report points out, including sharing towers and other infrastructure with competitors.

East Timor Seeking to Break Telecoms Monopoly

The East Timor(Timor-Leste) government has outlined plans to liberalise the telecoms market by the beginning of next year. The Timorese deputy prime minister, José Luís Guterres said that there was a consensus within the Council of Ministers on the matter following the definition of the aim of liberalising telecommunications some time ago .

"Now we need to approve specific laws to regulate the entry of other operators and there are at least two companies that have shown interest: Ireland's Digicel and Indonesia's Telecomcel," he told local news media.

There had been talk of liberalising the market back in 2007, but nothing has been said about the issue since then.

Portugal Telecom, which is the main shareholder in current monopoly telecoms operator, Timor Telecom had been kept appraised of the developments. Portugal Telecom invested US$54 million in improving the telecommunications network last year. The company currently has a monopoly until 2017, although there has been precedent in several Caribbean countries who broke the Cable & Wireless monopoly to introduce competition into their markets.

Timor Telecom is the monopoly operator in the country, and the analysts at the Mobile World reports that the mobile operator ended last year with 355,000 customers - representing a population penetration level of 31%.

East Timor was a Portuguese colony until 1975, when it was annexed by Indonesia. The country gained independence in 1999. Following independence and the destruction of the existing network provided by Telkom Indonesia, Australia's Telstra expanded its cellular telephone signal into East Timor in 2000, and operated services until 2003 when Timor Telecom took over.
