Cost Cutting Makes Sense

• Telecom and utility costs can amount to 25% of the total company operating cost.
• The telecom budget, combining voice, data, mobile and Internet shows an increase of 15% each year, despite the decreasing rates of providers. Currently, the average annual telecom cost per employee in the service sector, amounts to 1.000 €.
• Telecom charges represent the 4th or 5th heaviest cost of an enterprise, production costs not taken into account.
• Electricity and gas have become increasingly expensive: exorbitant oil prices, scarce resources, pollution tax…
• High energy consumption contributes to the green house effect, a concern to all of us.

It is therefore quite logical that reducing utility bills (telecom, electricity, gas, heating oil, and water) can significantly improve a company’s net result.

Yet, modern companies, immersed in the day-to-day stress of running a business, often overlook a detailed analysis of these costs, and therefore fail to optimise their budgets.

The telecom sector is a constantly evolving, highly technical business. It not only requires grasping the typical jargon, but also needs adeptness and the necessary know-how to cope with the ever increasing waves of new products and offers (xDSL, GPRS/EDGE/3G/HSDPA, VPNs voice and data, VoIP/ToIP):

1. each country counts several providers, with different offers and specific services, culminating in a real price war
2. the multitude of available operators, products and services, is running well over a thousand
3. multiple invoices and detailed contracts require an in-depth analysis

As for electricity and gas, their familiar appearance hides highly complex rates and intricate billing structures which require an in depth knowledge of the entire technical infrastructure.  These costs are usually relegated to the lesser-known aspects of a company, resulting in a lack of visibility, making it difficult to see any possibilities for optimisation.

Within this maze of proposals and new technologies, often pushed by insistent commercial salesmen, companies find themselves at a loss. They have other things on their minds, more urgent matters to tend to, lack the resources to really manage their telecom and utility expenses…even if they wanted to.

As a result, the financial management of telecom and utility services is often considered a low priority and the company loses visibility of its assets (infrastructure and utilised services) ànd its cost (justification, optimisation, errors).
