The Era of Consolidated Communications
Gone are the days of a single telecom bill. Today’s IT and communications spending spans UCaaS, MDM, SaaS licenses, SD-WAN, and multi-cloud infrastructure like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. This digital transformation has unlocked agility—but also created a perfect storm for unmanaged costs.
If your business still treats expense oversight as a simple telecom audit, you’re missing out on significant savings and strategic insights.
The Hidden Drain: Unseen Costs in the Cloud Era
Modern IT spending is fragmented across dashboards, vendors, and platforms. Without visibility, waste is inevitable.
- Cloud Waste Is Real: Nearly half of executives believe 30% or more of their cloud spend is wasted, often due to poor visibility and complex pricing.
- Billing Errors Persist: Businesses routinely save 10–30% by identifying outdated contracts, unused services, and billing inaccuracies.
- Complexity Is Costly: Telecom billing now includes recurring charges, usage-based fees, and variable cloud rates—making it nearly impossible to manage without expert help.
From Telecom Audit to Technology Expense Management (TEM)
A traditional audit focuses on fixed lines and circuits. A modern Technology Expense Audit, led by a Professional Technology Advisor, covers:
- UCaaS & CCaaS: License optimization and contract alignment.
- SD-WAN & Cloud Connectivity: Bandwidth right-sizing and SLA enforcement.
- Mobile & IoT: Inventory control and roaming cost management.
- Cloud FinOps: Eliminating idle resources and maximizing reserved instance savings.
The global TEM market is projected to reach $5.2 billion by 2026, highlighting its growing strategic value.
