Do you really need a telecom audit?
When it comes to telecom audits – we have seen a major shift within the last year. It seems more and more businesses are attempting to wrap their arms around their telecom inventories and spend. All companies from small individual ownerships to large corporation are looking for areas to cut costs in every aspect of business. Telecommunications can be a large but absolutely necessary expense. Without your telecom infrastructure, you would not be able to properly run your business. The benefits of telecom audits will aid your company in cutting expenses.
Let’s Start Here
There are two distinct types of telecom audits. The first is a cursory / one-time audit. This is a one-time peak into a telecom environment, where a TEM firm or consultant comes in for a short period of time to make recommendations for lines to be disconnected and requests credits on their client’s behalf. The second type of audit is the comprehensive / on-going audit. This type of audit is Valicom’s wheelhouse. We always recommend the on-going audit, as it gives our clients longer term control of their spend and overall ROI.
