DESCRIPTION
The vendor will provide and implement a robust, secure, cloud-based telecommunications expense management (TEM) solution for use across city departments. The platform will centralize and streamline management of telecommunications services, assets, contracts, and expenses, supporting wireless, wireline, voice, internet, WAN, broadband, cloud communications, conferencing, and emerging telecommunications technologies.
The solution should provide automated workflows, configurable business rules, invoice processing and reconciliation, inventory management, reporting and analytics, audit support, contract compliance monitoring, vendor accountability, departmental ordering, and chargeback capabilities. It should also integrate, as appropriate, with the city's existing financial, procurement, identity management, and IT service management systems.
The city seeks measurable improvements in telecommunications visibility, cost control, financial transparency, audit readiness, billing dispute resolution, lifecycle management, government rate plan compliance, and operational efficiency. The system should identify opportunities for savings and improve the accuracy and oversight of telecommunications assets, services, contracts, and expenditures. Questions must be submitted by August 7, 2026.
