Mobility - Voice and Data Procurement Intelligence

The mobility - voice and data category is projected to witness growth at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2024 to 2030. In 2023, Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share (32%) of the global category. Key drivers of this region include a consistent increase in the business/enterprise subscriber base for voice and data, deployment of VoNR (5G) network by key players, and a shift towards virtualization and software-defined networking (SDN). Asia Pacific is also anticipated to witness the fastest growth rate during the forecast period, due to the increasing need for business agility, focus on cost efficiency by businesses, and adoption of digital technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

In 2023, North America held the second-largest share of the global market. The key growth drivers include large coverage of 5G networks by key service providers, increasing adoption of edge computing infrastructure, and focus on sustainability initiatives. Key driving factors for Europe include extensive voice and data coverage in remote areas owing to government initiatives, increasing deployment of high-speed fiber optic networks, and focus on cyber security.

Key technologies driving the growth of this category include AI and Machine Learning (ML), quantum computing, edge computing, cloud computing and virtualization, and IoT integration. Edge computing is used to enhance the processing and storage of data, reduce latency, improve bandwidth, and enhance customer experience. By using a distributed network architecture, this technology processes real-time data at quicker speeds. Similarly, the use of virtualization enhances network infrastructure utilization, reduces hardware costs, and improves agility, by using virtual machines in place of hardware resources.

Key service providers of mobility - voice and data services compete based on various factors such as subscription rates, innovations in technologies and services, user experience, scalability of services, and data privacy and security. Clients (specifically business customers) consider factors such as service type (4G/5G), service deployment (cloud/on-premise), service transmission (wireline/wireless), service reliability (uptime/downtime), service speeds (download speeds typically range from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps), and extent of network coverage (based on area covered). Specifically, business customers may also look for add-on features such as call routing, data integration linking, caller identification, and call monitoring.
