Contract Management

Our mission is to empower our clients to obtain leading edge communications services at "world class" prices while maintaining the contractual flexibility necessary to manage their business.

The communications contract process is designed to cause confusion and protect the carrier's profit margin. Utilizing our decades of insider experience we will give you the upper hand in procuring communications services.

We begin by working with you to prepare a long-term vendor strategy and identifying short-term opportunities to reduce costs. Only then do we engage the carriers to obtain favorable pricing.

  • Our service is risk free - you pay us if we save you money.

  • We save you money by completing the process in weeks, not months.

  • We are an independent consulting agency - we do not accept any form of compensation from carriers.

  • We deal with carriers in a professional and honest manner.

  • Our clients are always in control of the process - you make the final vendor selection.

You are in control throughout the process and we provide you with extensive financial analysis to assist in decision making. We see the project through to completion by negotiating other terms and conditions, reviewing and finalizing the contract, and verifying the first bill against the new contract.

"Mr. Hartley identified several options to move some of these services to other carriers and save money. The vendor responded with a offers for a new contract that reduced costs by 40%.
