The program provides five principal services: switched voice, switched data, dedicated transmission, packet switched, and video transmission. This report identifies which agencies are using FTS 2000 and compares telecommunications costs between selected agencies that use FTS 2000 and those that do not provide information on the cost-effectiveness of FTS 2000.
This report identifies agencies that are using the Federal Telecommunications System (FTS 2000) and compares telecommunications costs of agencies that use FTS 2000 with those of agencies that do not. GAO focuses on four FTS 2000 services: switched voice and dedicated transmission, which constitute the bulk of FTS 2000 use, and packet switched and compressed video transmission. As of March 1996, 139 agencies and other government entities were using telecommunications services provided under the FTS 2000 contracts. GAO's comparison of telecommunications costs incurred by a sample of agencies that use non-FTS 2000 networks with what FTS 2000 would cost produced mixed results, with some costs comparable, some less, and others more.
