Case Study: The Bon-Ton Stores reduces telecom costs with Bluewave Technology Group

Bon-Ton Stores Migrates from PBX to POTS

The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. partnered with Bluewave Technology Group to strengthen its financial position by reducing telecom costs across 62 retail stores. Bluewave’s Telecom Evaluation, Strategic Sourcing, and Expense Management services were used to identify savings opportunities and eliminate unnecessary spending.

Bluewave Technology Group documented all telecom lines by location, reviewed each one for need and cost efficiency, and helped migrate eligible PBX lines to lower-cost POTS lines while disconnecting unused lines. As a result, 377 lines were moved to a new vendor, reducing monthly line rates by $1,677 and delivering $8,598 in year-to-date savings, while 154 unneeded lines were disconnected for an additional $10,369 in monthly savings.
