STRATEGIC SOURCING

If you’re searching for a way to streamline your request for proposal (RFP) process and ensure you receive the best cost and terms in your technology contract, look no further. As leaders in our industry, we’ll identify trusted solutions that work for your business, leverage our proprietary software to automate RFPs, and negotiate favorable terms to satisfy you and your vendors.

BUYER MANAGEMENT

BUYER MANAGEMENT

Don’t have the time or internal resources to quickly complete the RFP process? Our proprietary software can help. We’ve created an automation tool called DirectRFP that makes it simple to write, manage, and respond to RFPs, with thousands of prewritten questions built into our library. This lets you easily get the information you need from suppliers in a fraction of the time.

MOVES/ADDS/CHANGES/DISCONNECTS (MACD)

With countless technology providers to choose from, the procurement process can be lengthy, complex, and confusing—especially when your industry is bound to compliance and transparency requirements. Whether you need to change carriers, add new services, or simply disconnect a service, our team of experts will manage your entire procurement process.

SERVICE ORDER WORKFLOW

Backed by the expertise of trusted telecom and cloud specialists, our management platform provides service order workflow for all moves, adds, changes, and disconnects, giving visibility and tracking to the status of requests.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

CARRIER SERVICES INVENTORY

Our management platform provides a central repository of all your carrier inventory, searchable by location, service, reference ID, or numerous other available fields. All orders, charges, contracts, and associated cost center assignments are tied to the inventory.

INVENTORY RECONCILIATION

Submitting all service requests for moves, adds, changes, and disconnects through the platform helps keep your inventory clean and accurate. When new services appear on your invoices, we can easily validate the charges by identifying when the service was ordered.

VENDOR MANAGEMENT

CARRIER MANAGEMENT

Our team of provisioners works closely with carrier resources to scrub and accurately submit all orders. We drive escalations to ensure accuracy and timely delivery of services you procure. From verifying technical specifications to validating product compatibility with your equipment, we focus on ensuring the success of your deployments.

CONTRACT MANAGEMENT

After years of industry experience, we know what to look for in our clients’ contracts and will work with you and your vendors to negotiate the best terms for all parties involved. Our management platform provides access to all of your contracts in one place, so you get a centralized repository for documentation including vendor account reports, network diagrams, and master service agreements. Contracts are linked to corresponding IT assets and renewal timeframes, making this the go-to place for all information on your IT assets.

BENCHMARKING

Before signing on with a provider, you should know which ones are working with companies like yours. Our benchmarking services offer insight into the complexity of service you’ll need as well as what price point you should be paying, based on market-specific data related to your industry. Every benchmark comparison provides a full breakdown of best-case scenarios for each analyzed vendor, allowing us to negotiate the best price for your business.

DirectRFP® is the first RFP software platform to let you gather exact, measurable responses through an automated process.
