Telcom Cost Control offers two options to analyze your current cost structure:

Incentive Basis

We will provide our cost analysis service on a risk-free incentive basis. With an incentive based analysis, our fee is based on your savings. In addition to our audit expertise, we have extensive billing experience working inside the carriers' billing systems. We use this knowledge to quickly identify areas which are likely to have problems.

We will usually finish these projects within 10 weeks of receiving bills. We will identify potential cost recoveries and cost reductions. With the client's approval, we will negotiate these changes with the carriers and provide you and the carrier the information necessary to implement changes. An incentive based analysis includes the service details listed on the right.
