Wireless Optimization Many enterprises get "stuck" when they try to get a handle on their existing (usually growing) wireless spend, and then try to consider a fully competitive wireless procurement. Simply looking for additional corporate "discounts" off standard plans tends to get overwhelmed by the high costs of activation and de-activation, not to mention the waste of minutes inherent in individual call plans for end-users whose usage varies wildly. In fact, because no standard call plan really exists, different suppliers' call plans cannot be explicitly compared to each other on a unit rate basis (as you would compare different suppliers' rates for interstate voice, for example). True baselining and benchmarking must assess how an enterprise can move to an overall corporate pool of minutes and evaluate the shift from the value of the individual user/call plan to the overall value of the pool, all while taking into consideration that enterprise's specific chargeback methods for individual business units.
TC2 offers a proprietary method of building a wireless Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model based on an extensive baseline of all users' explicit usage patterns. This forms the foundation for then assessing carriers' rate plans, inputting the suppliers' pricing into the TCO model, and conducting an optimization of wireless usage across the enterprise. We can also compare the optimized user base against rate plans extracted from our proprietary wireless rate plan database. The result is a complete and meaningful optimization, benchmarking and procurement process that truly results in the best outcome for your unique wireless usage patterns - present and future. Finally, given our experience we work with you to develop best-practice policies for enterprise wireless usage to keep this crucial element of your total telecom expenditure under firm control.
