BODY OF THE REPORT BODY OF THE REPORT

01. INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study :


In Bangladesh, mobile telephone was opened to private sector

for more than a decade now and during the period four mobile operators came up to serve the people in this sector, But they could not fulfill the public demand as anticipated, nor could they cover the whole geographical area of the country. Moreover, the quality of service being provided by them is not very satisfactory and, above all, their call charges are too high. Under these circumstances, the idea of establishing mobile telephone project (the Project) in the public sector was conceived. Title of the Project was `10 (Ten) Lakh T&T Mobile Telephone Project (1st Phase- 2.5 Lakh) at an estimated cost of TK. 7.96 billion.

05. Literature Review


14

To be successful over the long term, a business must hold some advantage relative to its competition. In the simplest terms, such a competitive advantage can take one of three forms that reflect basic customer values: customers want goods and services (1) better, (2) cheaper, and (3) faster. We refer to these forms of competitive advantage as (1) differentiation, (2) cost leadership, and (3) quick response, respectively, Different refers to the extent to which the customer finds the ...... products or services unique in some way that makes them more attractive and therefore worth a premium price.

Following are some attributes that can differentiate

products :
Product features After-sales service Desirable image Technological innovation Reputation Manufacturing consistency Status symbol

06. Recommendation
15

Teletalk is a better position now than before. Their market position better day by day. Now they are competing with they market king Grameen Phone but Teletalk has some problems which keeps them behind. Here in Grameen Phone we identify some problems and recommended how to solve it. Grameen Phone provides the various packages with special features where Teletalk provides specific package. They should give the following facilities to the customers. Ensuring proper network Ensuring minimum outage time : : System planning System operations

Ascertaining qualified and competent human resources Generation and distribution of accurate and timely billing : It and Billing. Development of office Automation packages It and billing Preparation of yearly budget, actual as well as forecasted balance sheet and income statement.

Teletalk must raise its level to the stature of other big operators in terms of number of ............ and quality of service.

16

07. Conclusion

By analyzing this report we have seen that Tele-talk is lightly developing company in our tale communication market. Now they are competing with other market king such as Grameen Phone. We strongly believe that it will reach their own goals. At last we can say that Teletalk is a mile pillar in our tale communication system.
