Collocation RFP
“The collocation RFP developed by Communication Strategies is one of the best and most comprehensive I have ever seen!”
— Rick Moreno, Director of Network Operations, Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton, LLP
Telecommunications Expense Auditing
“After some confusion in determining the most effective long distance carrier, I was referred to Communication Strategies. They reviewed our bills and took a physical inventory of our circuits & telephone equipment. Somewhat to our surprise the most cost effective solution was a rate plan with our existing carrier, AT&T. In addition they found unused circuits and reengineered our Pacific Bell services. In total they reduced our telecommunications expenses by 25%!”
— Dan Vuletich, Operations Manager, Aidells Sausage

“We have relied on Communication Strategies over the last 10 years to assist us with critical telecommunications decisions and contacted them to review our telephone expenses. After physically auditing our equipment, circuits, and telephone services, they were able to provide us a detailed easy to understand inventory and recommendations. We were pleased with the annual expenses reduction of $87,000, a 26% savings! Also, we felt confident of the recommendation of a top tier carrier.”

Systems Design, Bidding, Implementation
“We understood the decision on a telephone systems platform would be long term and decided to involve consulting assistance. Ultimately we hired Communication Strategies to select a system that would grow in size and capabilities, such as voice over IP, as well as serve our branch offices. Their consulting team performed a detailed needs review of telephone and messaging usage as well as call center applications. From this they developed a customized RFP and managed a competitive bidding process. Because they help numerous clients with the same process they were able to negotiate a savings that was more than their fees! Finally, the implementation was managed flawlessly and on time with no cost surprises.”
