Simple and Complex Cost Allocation
The Value of Benchmarking...
Regional managers may have budget responsibility for telecom, but without the right information, they have little power to control this costly item.
How does an east coast manager compare the cellular costs of a geographically dense urban sales force, with those of a geographically diverse western sales team?
Benchmark your telecom costs!
With all of your bills in one database, it is easy to cut across regional and vendor diversity. Perhaps your eastern team spends $10,000 per month on cellular, while your western team only spends $5000. But normalize that by person and sales dollar generated and see what you get. The western team may actually generate more dollars in sales per person, per cellular dollar spent than the eastern team. A little shared information about usage, vendors and contracts can benefit the entire company and impact the bottom line.
...regional differences make comparisons difficult...
Who says you can't compare apples and oranges? A single database of information makes it easy to compare vendors, regions and services in relation to sales and production. Your FACtt database stores all the telecom expenses, add the headcount and sales figures and apples really can become oranges. This kind of "normalized' data can be a powerful negotiation tool the next time your vendors come to call.
Empower your managers with information!
Many managers have budget responsibility for telecom, but few have any power to impact these expenses. The reason is lack of information and knowledge. While you can't expect these managers to become telecom experts but you can give them the kind of useful information that can lead to expense reduction.
Benchmarking your telecom expenses and highlighting the best and the worst can lead to discussion and change in usage patterns. Managers searching to increase their profitability can compare notes with the 'best of breed' and effect changes in how their employees use telecom.
...encourage savings with information...
It's not just about saving money, it is about getting the most out of every dollar spent. Technology is expensive and it's necessary, but the right information can make every dollar spent more effective. A good cellular or internet program can generate sales and increase profits while abuse of technical resources can unnecessarily drive up expenses with no corresponding increase in sales.
FACtt gives you the power to effect change across your organization and control telecom expenses.
