Telecom Expense Management
“Telecom expense management means managing your wireless, voice, and data environment with the
goals of reducing risk and cost.”

spend, are ~20-50% off.

telecom expenses through software and professional services.
Putting the Pieces Together
Telecom expenses are categorized into three buckets:- Wireless- Wireline- Data
Wireless EnvironmentIf you have a mobile phone, tablet or any other device
without a wire it is considered “wireless”
Companies are experiencing an explosion of wireless devices, and mobile expenses are skyrocketing. Managing voice, data
and wireless is an enormous task.
Voice EnvironmentVoice means “fixed” or “wireline”
Even in this day of wireless everything, we'd bet that almost every desk in your building still has a phone sitting on it. Imagine the potential cost savings of
proactively managing that environment.
Data EnvironmentWhen information (data) is sent from one point to
another through a circuit.
Examples of data: Frame relays MPL Text messaging, etc.
