Case Study: US Navy achieves significant mobile cost visibility and savings with Calero-MDSL

U.S. Navy’s AT&T Usage Reporting Solution Powered by Calero-MDSL

The US Navy needed a robust, carrier-level mobile reporting solution to give insight into escalating mobile communication costs and satisfy strict usage-reporting requirements. AT&T partnered with Calero-MDSL to deliver a custom wireless reporting capability — the AT&T Wireless Invoice Analysis module powered by Calero-MDSL — to meet the Navy’s 20-point analysis and contract reporting specifications.

Calero-MDSL built a granular, automated reporting platform that exposed major waste and unexpected charges: one Marine unit had $121,000 of a $136,000 invoice in international roaming because no international plan was assigned, reports uncovered tens of thousands in charges for unused devices and non‑approved subscriptions, and 4% of users had charitable charges. The Calero-enabled AT&T solution delivered measurable cost savings, earned the Navy’s endorsement as the best carrier reporting option, and prompted thousands of Navy/Marine Corps customers to move to AT&T to take advantage of improved mobile spend management.
