Plan Optimization
Optimizing data plans and usage to ensure IoT devices operate cost-effectively.
How we can help:
Usage Reports: Providing monthly usage reports to tailor data plans based on actual needs.
Plan Adjustments: Regular plan reviews and adjustments to ensure cost-efficient operation of IoT devices.
Lifecycle Services
Managing the lifecycle of IoT devices is crucial for continuous operation and cost efficiency.
How we can help:
Device Management: Efficient handling of device adds, moves, changes, and cancellations to adapt to the dynamic nature of construction projects.
Asset Tracking: Comprehensive lifecycle reporting and planning to keep track of all IoT devices and plan for future needs.
Reverse Logistics: Streamlined capture, refurbishment, and redeployment of devices, minimizing downtime and costs.
Expense Management
Managing the costs associated with a large number of IoT devices can be challenging.
How we can help:
Real-Time Monitoring: Continuous tracking of device usage and expenses to prevent budget overruns.
Cost Optimization: Identifying high-cost and zero-usage devices to optimize resource allocation.
Detailed Reporting: Monthly executive reports and bill allocation to maintain financial control and transparency.
Cellular Benchmark Insights
Data Governance
Data governance focuses on identifying who drives data usage and uncovering savings opportunities through data plans. We examine four components:
- Data Pool: ensuring efficient collective data allocation
- Average Usage per User: identifying patterns and outliers
- Usage Alignment: verifying users are on suitable plans
- End-user Reporting: providing transparency and accountability
Financial
The financial component focuses on ensuring cost stability and competitiveness. We address key questions such as whether your costs are stable month-to-month, if you’re receiving best-in-class competitive pricing, and the impact of roaming charges. The four components analyzed are:
- Total Cost: providing an overall expenditure overview
- Cost per User: identifying per capita spending
- Roaming: assessing the financial impact of roaming charges
- Device Capture/Reuse: evaluating the efficiency of device utilization.
Fleet Health
Fleet Health evaluates the condition and management of your devices. Key aspects include:
- Device Aging: monitoring the lifecycle and age of your devices
- Device Plan Matching: ensuring each device is on the most suitable plan
- Device Repair/Replace: assessing the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of repairing versus replacing devices
Contract Cleanliness
Contract Cleanliness focuses on optimizing contract terms and usage. This involves:
- Plan Alignment: ensuring plans match actual usage
- Identifying and eliminating Unused Lines: to avoid unnecessary costs
- BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Conversion: which assesses the potential savings from allowing employees to use their own devices
