Development strategy of Japan telegraph and telephone company

The information and communication industry is at a turning point in history, and multimedia and globalization will cause fundamental changes in three key areas.

The first is the field of communication services. When NTT completes the construction of digital network, NTT tries its best to ensure that it can provide various services to the maximum at competitive prices. Although NTT's telephone service has reached the international advanced level, it will continue to improve, providing services such as virtual private communication network and preferential call charges. In the field of multimedia, OCN is a new computer communication service. At the same time, the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) will continue to maintain a very rapid growth. With the growth of these services, in the near future, NTT's network services will keep pace with NTT's telephone services.

The second major change is the reorganization and allocation of NTT resources. Digital network has caused great changes in infrastructure, so NTT will devote itself to reorganizing manpower, material resources and financial resources. In order to develop new services, realize miniaturization and reduce costs, NTT puts the pursuit of technological progress in a very important position. In terms of equipment and facilities investment, NTT mainly focuses on introducing optical fiber into the access network, and considers using mobile phones, personal handheld telephone systems (PHS) and other wireless communication devices to enhance the network performance. NTT will also redistribute and train human resources to cope with these changes more effectively.

The third major change will be reflected in the strategic use of resources. The urgent task of NTT company should be to make full use of NTT's human and material resources. Therefore, NTT will improve the openness of the network, implement the global strategy within NTT, and establish a decentralized and collectivized organization. In the coming era, no enterprise or country can go it alone. They should not only cooperate with each other, but also compete with each other.
