"More and more, telecom businesses are working to optimize the value they deliver to their customers," said Robert H. (Hal) Turner, chief executive of Pac-West Telecomm. "A one-size-fits-all approach just doesn't work – traffic patterns, billing requirements, quality guarantees, and payment terms are all components that need to be matched to the business."
