A central problem in the system of PTCL is lack of contact & feedback from & to employees there is a lack of co-ordination between different departments of the organization as well as into a specific branch. Another problem is lack of trained staff & political pressure for transfers/postings etc on middle management. Likewise Lack of automation and state-of-the-art latest IT technology for correspondence between the contents of the company causing the delay in work and negatively affecting the overall performance of the company 1. Introduction of the organization The telecommunications industry is at the forefront of the information age—delivering voice, data, graphics and video at ever increasing speeds and in an increasing number of ways. Whereas wire line telephone communication was once the primary service of the industry, wireless communication services and cable and satellite program distribution make up an increasing share of the industry. The largest sector of the telecommunications industry continues to be made up of wired telecommunications carriers. Establishments in this sector mainly provide telephone service via wires and cables that connect customers’ premises to central offices maintained by telecommunications companies. The central offices contain switching equipment that routes content to its final destination or to another switching center that determines the most efficient route for the content to take. While voice used to be the main type of data transmitted over the wires, wired telecommunications service now includes the transmission of all types of graphic, video, and electronic data mainly over the Internet. These new services have been made possible through the use of digital technologies that provide much more efficient use of the telecommunications networks. One major technology breaks digital signals into packets during transmission. Networks of computerized switching equipment, called packet switched networks, route the packets.
