		<description>I really appreciated the perspective on the industry outsourcing wave. I have watched the segment focused on Global Capacity, Inc.&#039;s very unique blend of network management and cost-optimization technologies.

It has always seemed to our firm that the delivery of this type of service is most effective if the solution is as &quot;Turn-Key&quot; as possible.

Wholesale service level agreements (SLA&#039;s) can sometimes create issues in network operations that require a higher level of support and maint., where most of these agreements tend to be &quot;no-frills&quot; and &quot;un-supported&quot; offerings.

I am sure that the sourcing companies that will survive will have to develop both the carrier relationships and the customer service reputation to operate well in the space.

I look forward to more reporting on the space. Keep up the good work.</description>
