A BI Research announced the launch of a new source of business intelligence for the wireless industry, the Business Mobility Research Service. Like the company’s other Research Services, it provides a bundle of research and analysis products that blend strategic industry assessment with robust quantitative data. These include individual Research Reports and ABI Insights, along with highly granular Market Data and analyst inquiry support.

"Business customers, who have enjoyed tremendous efficiency gains from mobile services, have traditionally bought mobile services from telecommunications operators," says principal analyst Dan Shey. "This dominance is changing as a result of a mobile ecosystem that is expanding and growing increasingly competitive while at the same time becoming ever more interconnected." New mobile capabilities created with new device technologies, access technologies, and new applications and services, are expanding the mobile ecosystem. And these technology enablers - as well as mobilization of desktop applications and services - are in turn increasing competition and providing more choice for the mobile customer.

 

Highly interconnected mobile ecosystem

"Yet," says Shey, "No one player can provide all the capabilities required to address the needs of the business customer, which results in a highly interconnected mobile ecosystem. This reality is fostering great opportunities, but also great complexities as traditional mobile companies, along with newcomers, try to decide how to adjust their capabilities, resources, and strategies for success."

It addresses mobile applications, device platforms, air interface technologies, operating systems, and application middleware components.
