Communication Strategies worked with a national client on a wide range of projects focused on voice and data infrastructure migrations. The client appreciated our standardized processes and expertise and asked if the Com-Strat team would take a look at their current mobile device services and billing.
The client was spending $218K annually on 300 mobile devices. Com-Strat assessed the current plans and determined there was room for improvement, then researched and presented the options.
- Stay with current provider, and realign services for a net annual savings of $36K
- Move to competitive provider “A” for a net annual savings of $60K
- Move to competitive provider “B” for a net annual savings of over $100K
Several factors were included in the decision process:
- Performing a thorough inventory assessment of all corporate liable mobile devices
- Salvaging existing hardware where applicable
- Decommissioning older hardware
- Standardizing on specific set of mobile devices and versions
- Incorporating a corporate Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Mobile Threat Management (MTM) strategy.
