Adapting Business Models to Integrated Mobile Solutions

The increasing overlap of services provided by fixed line and cellular telephony has important implications for future business models of most medium and large enterprises. “Fixed Mobile Convergence” (FMC) promises to significantly change the way enterprises deliver their products and services and how they organize themselves. Greater flexibility, quality of service and customer interaction can be achieved offering rapid return on investment with minimal disruption.

As the term implies, FMC is primarily about convergence between fixed-line and mobile communications, in other words, although there are currently different services and capabilities associated with each and limited interoperability, those differences are gradually being eroded so that users and providers will eventually be able to make use of identical functionality via both and manage interoperation between both irrespective of whether a device is mobile or fixed line. This seems simple enough and a natural step in the progress of communications technology. However the implications for the industry are enormous and there are signs that strategic moves are being made with an eye to future provisioning of services especially across the media and information service industries (also known as “infotainment” services). Companies that are not actively assessing their options may be left behind.
