Expense Management - Cost of Telecommunications Review
What is a Cost of Telecommunications assessment?
Organizations pay hefty bills for telecommunications services, and they often do it with very little insight into where the money is spent. Individual costs vary widely from a few thousand dollars a month for a small physician practice to hundreds of thousands or millions for big, multi-state businesses. But big or small, they all face a bewildering array of telecommunications service agreements and invoices.
A telecommunications cost assessment is a close examination of telecommunications invoices to determine if your organization is spending money unnecessarily on services that are unused, inaccurate, or ill-suited to their intended purpose.
Why would I need one?
- Your pay a substantial amount of money towards telecommunications expenses but do not know exactly what you are paying for.
- You have remained with the same service providers for years and have not conducted a marketplace assessment to determine if a more cost-effective option is available.
- Your vendor is asking for a substantial increase to the services they are providing without adding more value.
- You want to see if there are newer services available that would better meet your needs.
