Aberdeen Report Explores Wireless Spending
TeleBright Sponsors Research
Rockville, MD – July 19, 2007 -- Wireless communications have rapidly changed the face of telecom. As a pioneer in this industry, TeleBright is on the innovation edge for its client’s survival with surging wireless costs. TeleBright has sponsored the Aberdeen Group report “Wireless Mobility Expense Optimization“ to uncover the impact of wireless spending on businesses.
The Aberdeen report provides insight on the Best-in-Class organizations who spend an average of $72.40 per user each month compared to $124.50 for businesses who are falling behind in technology, known as Laggards. These same Best-in-Class organizations have two times less staff to manage the wireless device lifecycle. Best-in-Class companies have well documented wireless policies and procurement portals to ensure accountability and compliance.
“Two and one-half times more Best-in-Class organizations have visibility into an accurate, up-to-date inventory of wireless devices compared to Laggards. Inventory needs to be tracked with personnel status, job function, usage, and costs. As employees leave the company, enterprises must request that the carrier disconnect service and billing or reassign to new employees. This helps to explain why Best-in-Class organizations are able to spend nearly two times less on their wireless expenses compared to all others even though they have 21% more wireless devices,” stated Joe Basili, Research Director at Aberdeen Group.
