Abstract

An extensive and detailed coverage of development and implementation of MCI's services in the 1970-s - first half of 1980-s, especially of Execunet - a business line discounted service of which Roberts was named "father" and which was bringing MCI stable (and sometimes the only) revenue starting from 1975, constitutes the most important part of the Series. Documents present early stages of market studying and planning, technical and organizational aspects of service implementation, the defense of Execunet offering in the FCC and courts.
