Services / Telecom
Telecom Consulting
Independent advice on networks, carriers and communications for companies operating across the US, Portugal and the Middle East.
The challenge
Telecom costs and complexity keep growing
Most companies run on a patchwork of carrier contracts, legacy phone systems and connectivity bought one site at a time. Pricing is hard to compare, contracts auto-renew, and nobody inside the business has the time or leverage to challenge the providers.
We sit on your side of the table. We do not resell services, so our advice is independent.
- Rising carrier bills with little visibility into what you are paying for
- Contracts that auto-renew on unfavourable terms
- Ageing phone systems that do not support hybrid or remote work
- Inconsistent connectivity across offices and countries
- Too many providers and no single owner for the relationship
How we help
What an engagement includes
1
Assess
We inventory your circuits, numbers, contracts and invoices, and benchmark what you pay against the market.
2
Design and source
We design the target network and voice setup, run a competitive tender and negotiate terms with the shortlisted carriers.
3
Transition
We manage the cut-over with the new providers, track delivery dates and make sure the old services are cancelled on time.

Do you sell telecom services?
No. We are independent advisors, so our recommendations are based on what is right for your business, not on commissions.
Can you help if our contracts have years left to run?
Yes. We can plan ahead for renewal, find billing errors and look for options to restructure before the term ends.
Do you work outside the US?
Yes. We support projects in the US, Portugal and the Middle East, and can coordinate international carriers.
