CHR Builds the Fast Lane to Cloud Computing
For CSPs, the Automated Cloud is the Future
As we've seen, offloading IT costs to a cloud environment can enable companies to reap substantial savings, but enabling CSPs to automatically create, market, and provision their own catalogs of services they can offer to their business clients is the onramp to the future.
"The future goal for CSPs will be their ability to offer a productivity suite that enables SMBs to fulfill their IT business requirements without the CapEx exposure," explained Marc Hayden. "The ideal scenario would be the ability for a SMB to self-provision their connectivity and IT requirements online via the CSP's website. Whether it is the availability of PBX, IPTV, VoIP, productivity needs, or billing, the end goal is to enable self-management of these IT requirements."
Not only has CHR built this onramp, it has secured federal funding for rural CSPs to take advantage of these new opportunities; grant writing is part of CHR's extensive experience. The National Broadband Fund has released about $900 million in funding so far for rural operators.
"We wrote the grant request for 60 percent of the telcos, and 100 percent of the requests were granted," Hayden says.
