BEFORE

With more than 1900 assets on deck, and 3 carriers to deal with regularly, this construction company was overflowing with mobile devices, different contracts and rate plans. The company’s data, such as their devices and assets, were tracked primarily through Excel spreadsheets and numerous portals. Employees would often go on vacation, or leave the country, without adding any roaming packages. The bills were piling up, and many roaming charges and mobile devices needed to be managed. Their desire for proper control and awareness over their technological spend were recognized. They wanted to adopt new efficient methods to keep track of their data as the time and money spent on manual methods, like spreadsheets, were costing them too much. The company’s primary goal was to not only manage their mobile costs and inventory across the organization, but also their overall processes as to lower their man hours. They wished to have some sort of versatile platform that could manage different types of tasks and workflows, without the usage of multiple programs and spreadsheets.

After the implementation of Cimpl’s Telecom Expense Management services, there had been a positive change in their mobile environment. An incredible amount of billing errors and mistakes on invoices and contracts were identified. Cimpl was able to capture $35,000 credits for the company. This was possible through filtering through billing issues such as missing monthly fees, lines that were activated on the wrong plan, incorrect charges for roaming, extra functions added on the lines that weren’t requested, and more.  Furthermore, they were able to receive better rate plans and deals that suited their telecom needs. With better contracts at hand, they had less to worry about incurring unexpected amounts on their bills from their carriers.
