Decline in average revenue per unit is also impacting the telecom industry. Telecom operators are under constant pressure to manage their capital expenditures in network deployment to reduce their operating costs. IT service providers help telecom operators achieve these goals.

IT services facilitates telecom operators to deliver the telecom services efficiently and effectively. Moreover, IT services enable operators to understand customer expectations and thus reduce customer churn by enhancing customer service. Increasing need to remain competent and rising financial pressures faced by the telecom operators are the factors driving the telecom IT services market.
Telecom IT services market offers a wide variety of solutions such as customer relationship management, mobile commerce, enterprise mobility, network management, supply chain management, operations support system and business support systems.
Moreover, the operator portfolio is getting complex mainly due to mergers and acquisitions in the industry. For instance, the takeover of Mobilink Telecom by Broadcom and Bellsouth by AT&T Inc. Integration of the new infrastructure with the exiting operating infrastructure is a challenge to the industry. The telecom operators lack the proficiency required to integrate complex operating infrastructure. Thus to reduce this degree of complexity pertaining to issues related with integrating network and services, telecom operators partners with IT service providers. Increasing cost pressure, decreasing profits and extensive competitive rivalry are some of the factors that have compelled telecom operators to reach to the IT service providers to optimize their business processes.
High capital expenditure needed for IT services and constantly changing government regulations are inhibiting the growth of this market. These factors have resulted in a reduced investment in this market and have proved to be a major hindrance affecting its development. Top players such as Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. and IBM Corporation dominate the global Telecom IT services market. This dominance is threatened by emerging technologies such as Software Defined Networks (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV). Features such as flexibility, virtualization, network automation and orchestration associated with these technologies are expected to create potential opportunities for the telecom IT services market in near future.
