Top 10 Reasons for Partnering With
TelCon Associates for Your Next Telecom Audit
- Longevity and Experience. Don’t trust your telecom audit with a company that may be out business in 6 months. TelCon Associates has been a leader in the volatile telecom industry for almost 40 years. When it comes to auditing, experience matters.
- Proprietary Systems. While many telecom auditing firms concentrate on one or two areas for savings, TelCon Associates has developed systems for uncovering savings in ALL areas: bill errors, sub-optimum rates, sub-optimum facilities/vendors, overprovisioning,exemptions, fraud and abuse. Don’t trust a firm that only looks for billing errors, or simply sells you on contracting with a different vendor. We deliver tangible, bottom-line savings (large or small) – every time.
- No upfront fees or retainers. Many firms ask for large upfront fees or retainers before they begin work. Others ask for all fees to be paid within 30-60 days. TelCon Associates does neither. We implement all approved savings, then share equally in the savings for 12 months. This means that no “new” money will ever have to be budgeted to benefit from our audit service.
- Our Consultants receive no commissions. When savings are not immediately apparent to “commissioned” employees, they will naturally want to complete the assignment and move on. Commissioned auditors can stop a thorough audit dead in its tracks because they are concerned with their pocketbooks – not yours. Our consultants are salaried employees. They dig deep to find every bit of savings for you, even when these savings are not easily detected at first glance.
- We won’t waste your time. We never make frivolous or inconsequential savings recommendations. We treat your bills as if they were our own. On average, 90% of our savings recommendations are accepted by our clients.
- No affiliations with telecom vendors. Be careful of auditing firms that are actually carriers or vendors in disguise. TelCon Associates has never partnered or had any affiliations with vendors. Our recommendations are completely unbiased. Always have been, always will be.
- On-site surveys and personal interviews with end users. It is our belief that many savings opportunities at large locations cannot be identified unless on-site surveys and end user interviews are conducted. There is simply no substitute for these activities to help identify additional savings opportunities. You will be hard pressed to find another auditing firm that will go to this length to save their clients money.
- Written savings reports are provided for every location. Our savings recommendation reports are clear and easy to understand so that the savings opportunities we recommend for every one of your locations is laid out in complete detail.
- Electronic inventory is provided for all accounts. Your circuit inventory can either be managed by your own staff, or our Bill Management service can manage and audit bills on a monthly basis for you. Either way, having a complete and up-to-date circuit inventory of all accounts is important for keeping costs under control going forward.
- Audit services are Performance based. Unless we deliver savings, you won’t owe us a dime.
