Historically, voice and data traffic have been managed as separate technologies: voice using circuit-switching technology, and data using packet-switching technology.  A new mode of voice transport — Voice Over IP— holds the promise of lowering transmission costs, improving asset utilization, and simplifying maintenance by combining voice and data traffic over a common, standards-based infrastructure.

Convergence is happening.  Private network providers are engineering their services to accommodate voice grade requirements.  Switch manufacturers are building VoIP interfaces for their existing TDM-based systems or building new ones.  The entire telecommunications equipment industry is in the middle of a massive transformation to this new architecture.  The key issue is when and how your organization should adopt VoIP.
