A software company with approximately 700 employees faced inconsistencies in payroll processing and wireless telecom expenses, leading to unexpected costs and budget overruns. The company's CFO engaged Mobilia Consulting to analyze these two categories and ensure they received competitive rates and optimized services.



Mobilia Consulting's primary objectives were to conduct a detailed analysis of the company's payroll processing and wireless telecom spend, identify inefficiencies, negotiate better contracts, and provide ongoing customer support to streamline operations. The comprehensive approach began with an in-depth review of all payroll, wireless invoices, and contracts, revealing significant inconsistencies and unnecessary charges that inflated the company's costs.



Payroll Processing



Through meticulous analysis, Mobilia Consulting identified areas for improvement in payroll processing. Mobilia negotiated a new payroll contract with the current provider by leveraging their expertise and industry knowledge. This negotiation resulted in a 35% reduction in costs and secured price guarantees for the next 36 months, all without any change in service quality. The new contract ensured the company continued receiving reliable payroll services from a prominent national provider while significantly lowering expenses.



Wireless Telecom



Similarly, Mobilia Consulting thoroughly reviewed the company's wireless telecom expenses. A detailed analysis revealed opportunities for cost savings through plan optimizations and removing unnecessary features and services. By aligning usage patterns with the most cost-effective plans, Mobilia could streamline wireless spend, achieving a 29% reduction in costs without requiring direct negotiations with the vendor.



Ongoing Customer Support



One of Mobilia Consulting's key value additions was providing ongoing customer support. This support ensured that the software company no longer needed to spend time dealing with its wireless telecom carrier or payroll provider, relieving the organization of approximately 25 hours per month. This effort freed up valuable internal resources and ensured continuous monitoring and management of expenses to maintain optimized savings, providing a sense of reassurance.



Results



The results of Mobilia Consulting's intervention were substantial. The company achieved an overall reduction of 35% in payroll processing costs and a 29% reduction in wireless telecom spend. Mobilia Consulting achieved significant cost savings by negotiating a better payroll contract and optimizing wireless plans. Mobilia's ongoing support ensured the sustainability of these savings and allowed the company to focus on its core operations without worrying about expense management.
