Introduction
I have been very grateful for being chosen to do this report, I have found some very interesting facts that I would love to share with you. Telkom is a very important company in South Africa. The reson why why telkom is very important is because, Telkom is Africa's largest integrated communications company, providing integrated communications to all types of clients.
Investigative method
The method that I've used in this research was mostly the internet (www.Telkom.co.za). I also went for an interview with Mr. Van Rensburg, the Manager of the main Telkom branch. I have also been able to send them e-mails with my queries that will help me to complete this report to the best of my advantage. Telkom has had the pleasure to responded to some of my
e-mails and therefore I am very proud to consider them as a very assessable company.
Findings
I found it very easy to contact this company, but not everyone was able to give me the information I needed for this report. They answered me via e-mails as well as they were willing to have an interview with me where I asked all my questions. The way the company is gathering there information and storing it is very interesting they usually gather the information by interviewing their most valuable clients by asking them, what do they prefer and how they will be able to improve their service to them.
Conclusion
The general information was easily assessable in the World Wide Web. Telkom doesn't have an increase in competition in international and long distance infrastructure that would benefit to the market by what they do have is poor information systems that are used to communicate to the world outside.
Recommendations
I honestly think this company is well orientated and very assessable. If someone logs onto the World Wide Web there are many sources of information from all over the world that will usually answer many questions that a person might need an answer for.
