Summary
NDC remains committed to the design and provision of networks which reflect the Customer's stated requirements rather than designs reflecting what vendors consider to be "the way the industry is moving". This means that Customers get maximum network performance without implementing "fad" technologies which:
- add significant cost, and
- may become obsolete
NDC considers that network design should include elements of pragmatism and real-world applicability in order to best serve the needs of the Customer.
