Solutions to Reduce Recurring Costs
It's not the most exciting way to start - you won't be wowed by these solutions or dazzled by the possibilities they enable (though hopefully you will be with the rest) - but it's an important beginning. Before we look to change how you work and communicate, we prefer to start by making sure you're maximising what you've got.
Every month, quarter or year, most companies write a cheque for the following:
- Line rental for incoming lines: analogue and ISDN
- Call expenditure for inbound and outbound calls
- Data networks: broadband, high speed Internet and WAN links
- System maintenance for voice and data hardware
- Service contracts for reprographics equipment
- Mobile voice and data contracts - e.g. BlackBerry devices
The needs are simple:
- To reduce the monthly/annual spend in these areas
- To ensure that the solution is fit for purpose
- To consolidate supply chain and benefit from scale economies
We use our professional services to audit these areas and help you to take out cost. But we don't just think we can save you money. We think we can put together a more fit for purpose solution using emerging technologies (e.g. SIP trunking and VPLS access networks) that you may not be familiar with. Once we've maximised this area, we're ready to climb the steps towards optimising the whole organisation...
