Case Study: an international telco achieves 10% circuit spend savings with Cartesian

International Telco saves 10% on circuit spend with Cartesian

An international telco engaged Cartesian to help optimize its spending on Tier 2 EMEA circuit suppliers. The client sought to analyze its existing inventory, target smaller vendors for cost reductions, and obtain a clean inventory for future management activities.

Cartesian prioritized key suppliers and liaised with them over a 12-week period. This process resulted in over 90 suppliers providing cost reduction proposals, which Cartesian then benchmarked and negotiated further. The vendor's efforts secured over 50 approved proposals, generating an annual savings of approximately 10% of the client's circuit spend. Cartesian was subsequently engaged for additional carrier supply management activities.
