    The Unauthorized Bio Of The Baby Bells 88 BOOK II Bell History and Strategies: Shareholders First, Customers Last What does the Star Wars' Evil Empire and Bell Atlantic Have in Common? James Earl Jones was the Voice of Darth Vadar and is the Voice Of Bell Atlantic— Are There Other Commonalties? The Unauthorized Bio Of The Baby Bells 89 "Food For Thought" Interlude— Conspiracy or Miscalculation? Book 1 leaves us with a serious dilemma, especially about the I-Way. First, we know straightforwardly that the plans were all scrapped and the announced services were never delivered. But we are left with wondering how both the telephone companies as well as their consultants, were so wrong. Let's look at the options: There were three massive errors in judgment: • Mistakes in the costs of rolling out the network • Mistakes in overestimating demand • Mistakes by the research/consulting suppliers Let's walk through each one: • Mistakes in the Costs of Rolling Out the Network: The original cost model for the I-Way was estimated at around $1,200 per household. However, Bell Atlantic stated that the cost of their trials came to $16,000 per line. This includes the cost of the various Info Highway components in the home, described earlier, as well as the cost of the fiber- optic networks. But, that's a difference per line of 1233%. Of course there are caveats. Most importantly, that the trickle of a rollout was only a "test" of advanced services, and with larger volumes of users, the costs would decline. In fact, Bell Atlantic's original plans may have actually called for a great deal less spending than $1,200 a line.

  • 27. Even Basic Services May Be Enhanced by the Merger. For
    27. Even basic services may be enhanced by the merger. For example, bilingual skills have enabled SBC to publish directories in Spanish, while Ameritech does not yet publish any Spanish speaking directories anywhere in region. Ameritech has considered producing Spanish language directories in Chicago, and SBC's skills could be quite useful. These skills could also improve the quality of customer service Ameritech provides to its Spanish speaking customers, while Ameritech's experience in such languages as Polish could be ofuse to SBC. 28. The new SBC will be able to support a virtual customer service center. By having customers and local sites in four U.S. time zones, and across the globe, the new entity will be able to service customers' needs on a 24 hour a day basis, regardless of where they are located. For example, a customer in England can call with a billing question at 2:00 a.m. English time, \vhich is 8:00 p.m. Chicago time, to talk to a customer service representative. Ameritech has not, as a stand alone company, had the base of customers or geographic scope to warrant these investments. In addition, over time, the new SBC will have uniform best practices customer care techniques across the globe, ensuring quality and availability ofservice. 29. The merger will enhance Ameritech's cellular roaming service capability by expanding our wireless reach to major markets in the Southwestern United States and on the East and West coasts. The expanded geography and consolidated mobile service support systems will allow for enhanced mobile security without the need for "PIN" 14 numbers and other unpopular security measures.
