How would you like
to spend less for more?

In just the past 12 months, ProfitLine has negotiated carrier contracts saving clients 42.36% of their telecom spend. These millions of dollars in savings are just part of the higher value TLM Sourcing delivers. Our clients also have acquired higher network performance, better terms and conditions, and stronger service level agreements (SLAs). We will do the same for your organization.

And if you're a TLM 360 client, we'll leverage our involvement in other lifecycle areas such as invoice processing to deliver even more value. Applying advanced business intelligence analytics to your billing data, ProfitLine is able to enter negotiations on your behalf in an even stronger position—and come out with a stellar deal.

How Would You Like to Achieve
an Enviable Deal with Minimal Exertion?

ProfitLine generally completes sourcing engagements—from benchmarking to contract signature—in a third to half the time it takes most companies to do their own deal. We handle all the preparation, while providing you with complete visibility into deal strategy and status. Speedy negotiations mean you start accruing savings months sooner. And the process is so cost-efficient, it's practical to renegotiate annually allowing your enterprise to take greater advantage of dropping prices, service changes and market dynamics.

How Do We Do It?

ProfitLine brings unique advantages to your side of the negotiating table during each stage of the sourcing process:

What makes us unique is the powerful way we leverage people strengths with technology strengths:

Telecom expertise & negotiating savvy. Our experts have decades of experience crafting telecom deals, so they know precisely how each carrier prices, negotiates and operates. Because we are focused on the telecom industry and working deals every day, our professionals are sensitive to even the smallest industry developments which may offer additional leverage to a negotiation.

Automated systems enable us to quickly apply our knowledge to your data in minute and exacting detail. While most companies require weeks or months to analyze and benchmark telecom contracts and expenditures at even a summary level, we do it in just days, down to the line item level. This provides clarity—a powerful position from which to negotiate, since carriers often deliberately cultivate obscurity. We continually update the details during the process to maintain this strong bargaining advantage all the way through.

This interplay of broad industry knowledge and deep analysis of your data also enables ProfitLine to help you determine how new IP-based services may enter into your negotiations. We pin down vendors on the incremental value these services, (which they are so eager to migrate your network to) will actually bring to your business.

We use industry data we have compiled on IP network expenses in conjunction with your own data to project the impact on your budget and pinpoint optimal timing for change. ProfitLine obtains discounts and other concessions to help you make transitions smoothly and with the least total cost. We are the trusted partner you can rely upon to steer your telecom expense budget safely through this time of unprecedented change.

In addition ProfitLine offers Professional Services, including consultative and customization project, to complement and extend TLM Sourcing .
