Services - Assessment

Assessment - Benchmarking - Management - Project Management

Precise analysis. Genuine savings.

Sound decision-making starts with an accurate and integrated understanding of your telecoms asset inventory. But network providers’ bills are notoriously difficult to audit, especially when you factor in multiple locations, fixed lines, mobiles and data. They are also prone to errors caused by things like complex circuits and trunks, numerous rates and tariffs, maintenance costs, usage-sensitive discounts and various surcharges! So what chance do you stand?

Our service reviews all aspects of your telecoms expenditure, enabling us to assess the current situation across all of your mobile and fixed line telecoms providers. From this we can build up an accurate picture of your entire telecoms estate, including all fixed and variable costs. This comprehensive assessment covers areas such as:

  • the rates, terms and conditions of your contractual commitments
  • employee spend assessment
  • billing and service inventory accuracy
  • spend and trend variances
  • utilisation and configuration of communications services

It also provides you with a complete asset register of your communications estate, which details every line and every service you are paying for.

How do we do it?

In order to carry out an Assessment, all we need from you is:

  • details of your existing contracts and tariffs from the network providers you require to be analysed
  • your last three months fully itemised bills from each
  • a list of your current office locations and any subsidiary companies

And that’s it, apart from telling your telecoms suppliers that you’re happy for us to talk to them.

The MH2 CONSULTING LIMITED platform uses up-to-date information from all the tier one and tier two network providers and enables us to analyse your entire telecoms situation in fine detail, something which is impossible to do manually when bills are delivered by the box load! It can identify a huge range of issues including:

  • unused lines
  • expensive legacy contracts
  • incorrect tariffs
  • historic and current billing errors
  • staff misuse
  • high-cost fixed line to mobile calls
  • unnecessary maintenance charges

What does it cost?

We combine our Assessment and Benchmarking services into one simple charging structure as these are usually carried out together. This is based upon a percentage of your current annual telecoms spend as an initial fee, followed by a percentage of the savings we identify. If you prefer these two areas to be costed separately we can discuss this on an individual basis.

It’s easy to find theoretical savings in almost any service, but at MH2 CONSULTING LIMITED we don’t deal in theories. Which is why we also we build contract termination costs into every recommendation we make. In fact, we’re so confident of being able to offer genuine benefits on our Telecoms Cost Management program’s, that if the saving we identify is less than 10% of your annual spend, then we refund the initial fee in full and you pay nothing.

Planning for the future

The complete view of your external communications which MH2 CONSULTING LIMITED provides can also help you to understand the impact of implementing new technologies. Our experience in evaluating Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and potential Return on Investment (ROI) can help you to justify future spend on mobile, fixed line, data and VoIP technology. We can work closely with you to understand your business needs and your potential voice and data communications usage, in order to assess the commercial viability of these future plans.
