Client had a combination of corporate liable and individual liable users on both AT&T and Verizon. The individual liable users would expense their bills monthly. OpDecision was engaged to help negotiate with AT&T and Verizon to go exclusively corporate liable, while focusing on reducing costs and garnering incentives from the carriers.

OpDecision was able to negotiate a technology "refresh" credit valued at approximately $107,000 for BlackBerry devices, cell phones, and air cards.

The account savings was derived from several different components. OpDecision leveraged its carrier relationship and utilized the competitive bidding nature of the re-sign process to procure an 8% increase in the corporate discount, lowered the long distance and roaming charges, and utilized unpublished pricing to be implemented on the account.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.
