mobility

Today’s workforce relies heavily on mobile devices to get the job done – and this is just the beginning of the sea change that mobility will drive over the next decade.
 
At NPI, we understand the overwhelming cost and complexity that keeps finance, IT and procurement professionals up at night as they strive to govern mobility costs. In fact, the average enterprise overpays 38% for wireless services.
 
NPI helps clients eliminate this overspending, gain consolidated visibility into mobility costs, and break through the complexity to arrive at a clear mobility strategy. We help clients manage their spending for immediate and long-term savings. Once current spend is understood and optimized, we also advise on tools and services to keep mobility spending tightly managed.
 
Initial savings can be achieved at any point in time (regardless of carrier contract term):

  • Without changing carriers
  • Without new contracts
  • Without any impact to users

 
How? Through a mixture of:

  • Usage analytics – for example, identifying top data, international or directory assistance users and assuring they are matched to the right plan to yield the lowest cost
  • Bill audit – errors are common

 
NPI also assesses the overall mobility landscape and recommends strategic changes that can drive additional savings.

that hasn’t been explored is this: How will BYOD impact carrier contracts?

The advantages of BYOD are many, but they come with a few risks… Read more >
