A Communications
Audit
establishes a baseline of services. A Communications Audit reviews
contract and terms for your telecommunications. A Telecom Audit is about
financial practices and improvement.
Through a telecom audit, your company will benefit from lower monthly
expenses, recovery of overpayments to carriers, and a more efficient and
effective network.
Refund Systems knows that an opportunity exists to reduce and streamline
your telecom expenses. Our communications Audit will provide you
cost-effective way to retain internal control over telecom services and
associated processes. This includes billing reviews and payment
processes.
Our data collection methods are comprehensive and include all of your
carrier's agreements, bills, records and other relevant data. This
automates the process of the telecom audit and gets you to project
savings very quickly.
We have preformed these audits throughout the United States. Savings
vary based on each client but we have found no less than a 20% annual
savings for many of our clients.
While there is no way of predicting your actual funds to be recovered
until about one quarter of service is audited and agreements are
reviewed. We do establish estimates in the project that have many times
have proven to be an accurate assessment of the recovery opportunity.
Refunds or credits from your telecom providers are usually recovered
with credits to existing accounts or direct cash refunds. In almost all
cases the provides prefer credit's but many times the savings are
significant enough that we recommend a cash refund be requested.
Our reports and findings will also provide you with other options that
may better serve your telecom needs in terms of quality and cost. This
is truly and roadmap to better overall network and telecom
configurations and lower overall costs.
Refunds Systems provides detail comprehensive technical solution backed
by extensive experience.
For enterprises with large, complex networks that produce a multitude of
invoices from a long list of vendors - the management of the telecom
spend becomes a daunting challenge. This is the solution.
Automated Expense Management is offered as either a hosted application,
leased or purchased software, or as a complete business process
outsourcing (BPO). It begins with the establishment of business rules
including rules for contract enforcement and fulfillment, receipt and
validation or dispute of monthly invoices and correction of errors, and
invoice payment processing and GL and cost center reporting. It includes
reconciliation of monthly changes (MAC/D) to invoices. All this is
supported with our state-of-the art platform.
Expense Management Automation leverages technology to:
" Maintain contract and invoice payment integrity
" Allocate costs
" Develop the data points for continuing analysis
" Automate invoice validation and payment
" Improve control by driving down responsibility to cost drivers
" Provide the supporting detail for focused procurements
The implementation of telecom expense automation for many of our clients
is the perfect follow-up to the permission-based telecom audit. But for
others, it's a starting point.
At the end of the day, you will know what you have, why you have it, and
how to use it better. Net results are lower telecom costs and increased
control over your ever-changing network.
