21 January 2002
PA Consulting Group, the leading management, systems and technology consulting firm is set to confound sceptics of 3G by demonstrating at 3GSM World Congress (19 to 22 February) that the Group's technological innovation is making 3G a reality for manufacturers and operators.
The PA wireless team will be on hand (Stand G52 Hall 2) to demonstrate PA's end-to-end solutions for 3G and to explain and show how the Group's technology has banished some key obstacles to successful 3G including:
Despite gloomy predictions, PA believes mass acceptance of 3G technology is just around the corner, and the key to success is how vendors and operators define, rollout, package and price the products and services they offer.
Phil White, Deputy Head of Wireless Technology at PA Consulting Group's Cambridge Technology Centre comments:
"Vendors and operators need every advantage they can get, and need to achieve earliest time to market with competitive offerings. We know the problem areas for manufacturers and operators including such elements as system integration, radio planning, infrastructure sharing and the introduction of new services. PA is ahead in truly enabling 3G."
