Telecommunications Network Management (TNM) originated in 1988. It was created by the International Telecommunication Union for the purpose of standardizing the creation and classification of interfaces. The first of its kind, this concept allows networks to be managed uniformly across all service and equipment providers. Without such a movement, telecom expense management would not be what it is today, as it would be much more difficult to consistently document how utilize your service networks. Since TNM was introduced, we have seen a large, unified effort to track ands define various network elements.
Services
While this concept is infinitely beneficial in the world of telecommunications, it also made telecom service and expense far more difficult to manage. Not only is telecom one of the most time-consuming services to manage, for any business, it is also usually one of the top three largest expenses. This is only made more frustrating when you consider that there are no members of your company who are specially trained to review and evaluate telecom expenses.
Vendors generate very complex service agreements and invoices. What you commonly end up with are hundreds of invoices that are full to the brim with complicated language and prices that would take serious reviews to verify. Prices also change constantly, making it difficult to ensure that you are being charged according to your original agreement. Vendors do not feel it necessary, in many cases, to inform you when there are more affordable options available. You may be paying the price you originally agreed upon, when there are new, cheaper prices available.
The focus of our telecommunications management is cost reduction, with or without carrier changes. We can guarantee to save you money in some way, whether by getting you refunds for overpayment or changing your service to a new provider. After thoroughly reviewing your contracts and invoices, we can find errors that will be refunded to your company. We will also act as your negotiator, obtaining and comparing quotes from multiple vendors to find the best one for you. Our services, though multifaceted, focus on two main processes:
1. Review of your invoices and contracts to find opportunities to save money and obtain refunds
2. Researching vendors to find the best rates and terms, then implementing service changes and following up to ensure satisfaction with vendors
