AOTMP Identifies Key Criteria for Evaluating TEM Supplier Strength and Viability
(firmenpresse) - INDIANAPOLIS, IN -- (Marketwire) -- 07/27/11 -- Hundreds of suppliers and consultants offer telecom expense management (TEM) technology platforms and business process outsourcing (BPO) services to support fixed and mobile telecom management practices, making the selection process challenging for enterprises. According to , a leading information services company, a supplier's financial state and potential for long-term partnership should be key considerations.
"Evaluating a TEM supplier that will be responsible for financial transactions of tens or hundreds of millions of dollars on an enterprise's behalf requires keen attention to the supplier's business itself," says Timothy C. Colwell, senior vice president of global performance management at AOTMP. "Enterprises must consider if a supplier is financially stable, regulated and technically sound."
Financial strength of a TEM supplier reduces the risk of business downturn and enables adequate staffing of projects, resulting in improved performance. Being that enterprises are financially liable to telecom carriers for payment of service invoices, independent of who is processing and remitting payment on their behalf, financially unstable suppliers can be a liability.
According to AOTMP, suppliers that are struggling to grow are generally acquired, often causing degradation in support of an enterprise's current system. Enterprise clients are then forced to migrate platforms altogether.
To meet current and future business needs, AOTMP recommends the following evaluation criteria when selecting a TEM supplier or consultant:
Align capabilities with business needs
Determine financial strength
Review standards and regulatory compliance
Evaluate technical strength
Validate service transparency
