Cost Saving Audit

The challenges facing schools are growing. Schools are required to become more business-like, as they are faced with ever decreasing budgets, putting pressure on School Business Leaders to identify savings and cut costs.

The Hurdles

97% of schools are being overcharged for their telecom’s products and services, the main reasons for this are:

School Business Leaders are extremely busy, as a result telecoms contracts and pricing are rarely reviewed
The telecoms market is complex and constantly changing
It is difficult to obtain industry knowledge and benchmark pricing
Schools are often subjected to and unaware of hidden costs

How to cross the Finish Line

Our Cost Saving Audits identify areas where savings can be made. We do all the work so there is minimal impact on your time. This service is financially risk free, guaranteed to save you money and covers the following areas:

Our experience and procurement methods ensure that we can always source lower pricing than schools can achieve themselves. Whilst price is important, we only procure from reputable suppliers, so that quality and service levels are maintained.

As an Academy School we are committed to ensuring that we get value for money on all products and services that we purchase. Following a recommendation, we employed TGE Solutions to carry out an audit of our telecoms estate. We were amazed by the results of the audit, immediate savings of over £2,500 per year were found and recommendations on how we could make further cost savings in the future were provided. We believed that we already had competitive contracts in place, it just goes to show the benefits of employing a company like TGE Solutions.
