  • <strong>We Can Help!</strong> We Can Help! “Throughout the course of a national project, we increased the overall discounts to 15% for monthly services, combined 40 accounts into one account, and eliminated multiple carrier solutions in a large portion of the West Region.
    The Above the Standard team drove this project by gathering detailed information regarding the current systems deployed and understanding the long term cost for those systems. We were better able to understand where Sprint was and was not a fit. The bottom line result was almost a 44% cost reduction per year. This resulted in a savings of $2,182,000 over the contract term."
