Mobile telephony is an integral part of the business world today.
For managers at all levels, through to field sales and technicians, the mobile phone plays a vital role, ensuring that all parts of the organisation, regardless of their location, can communicate effectively, enabling a fast co-ordinated reaction to changes in business circumstances and priorities. The rapid growth of mobile telephony has resulted in major challenges for many organisations. For some, responsibility for mobile telephony has filtered down to the cost centre level with little formal cost control or centralised visibility of the organisation's mobile assets. Others have a degree of centralised control but the benefits of this centralised control are negated by the upwardly spiralling cost of resources required to manage the mobile fleet. Only those organisations with a centralised mobile communication strategy will be in a position to gain the maximum benefit from the current and next generation of mobile communications.
