A contract is the telecom vendor's rule book for your account. It sets the prices, and it sets the terms for those prices. Once you have agreed to a contract, it becomes the standard by which all vendor and client performance is measured. The question is, who is in control of setting the standards and doing the measuring - you or your vendors?

Our Contract Compliance service is, in essence, the first stage of our full-scale Contract Optimization and Negotiation service. It delivers the critical foundation work that must be done for best-practice telemanagement, whether by you or by us.

The key aspect of insuring full compliance is to put the contract to the test. TelAssess knows what to look for and how to resolve issues of non-compliance -- whether they are inaccurate billing, calling categories that don't sync up with call patterns, or issues related to falling short of or exceeding your spend commitment.

TelAssess has designed and built a proprietary engine that digs deep into the raw data contained on your billing CDs. We then match that data against your contract and other data sources which are relevant to the process. We do NOT use the stock reports provided on the CDs as we have found them to be unreliable.

Checking compliance can provide benefits at any point in the contract lifecycle. Based on our analysis, you will know if your bills are aligned with contract terms, and you will have the information needed to enforce or improve them from a price, flexibility, performance or other perspective.

Recently Signed Contracts
Any time a new contract is in place, it's important to make sure the billing is accurate. Were waivers properly applied? Are all billing categories aligned with the contract? Carrier billing CDs do not provide the level of detail and accuracy that our processes do.

Mid Term Contracts
We will project spending run rate in relation to your commitments, insure proper application of performance credits, and find billing errors before you've accumulated large overpayment totals or reached limitation dates on refunds. If company transitions have generated new call types we can identify their impact.

End of Term Contracts
Most agreements run 2 years or more. That's a lifetime in telecom years. With so many changes in your business and the telecom world, what was good then is likely not so good now. Before entering into any new agreement, an analysis of what you use, what you need, and what you should pay is of great importance.

A small change in your contracts now can mean large changes in your telecom costs later. Let TelAssess improve your contract situation and help drive costs down.
