Telecommunications has become so complex in the 21st century that most experts assume customers with un-audited telecomm systems routinely over pay their bills by at least 10 percent. For this reason, most enterprises engage in some level of auditing, commonly known as Telecommunications Expense Management or TEM. This spread sheet is designed to help you estimate the potential savings TEM can provide.

The benefits of TEM often extend beyond savings on the corporate phone bill. By carefully tracking contracts and usage, TEM can spotlight areas where contracts should be modified to eliminate unnecessary costs such as vendor penalties associated with over- or under-usage. This calculator can help.
