Customers Happy + (Bean Counter Happy && Bean Counter != Crook) + Time = Overall Business Success One shouldn't make the model too complex. Know your customers and what they want. Temper that with proper evaluation of cost (ie, don't run at a loss by giving customer bandwidth for free). This is no different than any other business, and I've yet to see a company with an SLA perform better than a company without an SLA that cared about their customers.
I assume this was a rhetorical question, since you know as well as I do that all major telcos fly by the seat of their pants. -Bill
Define major. Are you saying that Rural ILECs aren't major telcos?
I can assure you that is absolutely false Woody. -ren
Do you represent a major telco? If so, were you flying by the seat of your pants when you top posted? :) Everyone flies by the seat of their pants. If there was a single proven way, we wouldn't need nanog or have any of the issues that are prevelant today. -Jack
