Telecommunications Consultants (TC) vs. Telecommunications Management Consultants (TMC)

What’s the difference? This is a question that was recently posed to me for further clarity. It is a legitimate question that I thought I would clarify on my blog. To sum it up briefly, the difference is rooted in the services and the clients it services.
Telecommunications Consultants (TC) are providers of voice, video, and data solutions for the end user. Their classification or NAIC code is 517 and classifies as a telecommunications service provider.
While Telecommunications Management Consultant (TMC) providers classify in NAIC code 54168 of management consultation services or specifically “other Management consulting services. Most of their clients are businesses that require an expert opinion of improving internal operations. Telecommunications management consultants have no partnership with providers insuring an unbiased opinion.
In short, TCs are routing in the practice of engineering while TMCs are in Management.
I hope this clears things up.
Keep Achieving
