Client was approximately 50% out of contract with T-Mobile. OpDecision was engaged to bring other carriers to the table to identify what the competitive market could offer. At the conclusion of the review ARUP determined that staying on T-Mobile was the best fit for their company. OpDecision was able to negotiate a no cost technology "refresh" for hardware including BlackBerry devices and cell phones. OpDecision, for the re-sign, was also able to negotiate a credit of approximately $40,000 on the account.

The savings on the account was derived from several different components. OpDecision leveraged its carrier relationship and utilized the competitive bidding nature of the re-sign process to procure a 2% increase in the corporate discount, identified over 50 lines of service that had no use (for 6 months or longer), lowered the long distance and roaming charges by close to 50%, and utilized unpublished pricing to be implemented on the account. All of these factors, in addition to optimization to avoid usage or overage charges, led to the cost savings.
