Schooley Mitchell helps businesses reduce operational expenses and grow their bottom lines, keeping them strong even in the midst of economic hardships.
According to Forbes, “Typically as we enter recessions, companies look to quickly cut costs; that translates into laying people off and cutting back on hiring. Whereas your company may do that as a whole, CIOs and CTOs should be very thoughtful before they do that in their engineering and IT organizations because there likely will be continued demand for these services. We are still in a constrained labor market, so once a company lets these people go, it will be very hard to hire them again.”

For school districts, increasing costs are stretching budgets significantly. And while federal funding has been helpful as we emerge from the pandemic, those special funds might not be eligible to pay for day-to-day operating costs such as telecom—which is more important, and more complex, than ever.
Rapidly improving technology for telecom (phones, videoconferencing, internet connectivity, and related services) is allowing school districts to streamline systems and potentially realize cost efficiencies. But effective management requires monitoring numerous phone lines and devices, various rate plans which are often changing, and a host of other variables.
Many school districts don’t have the time or the tools necessary to keep track of those variables especially on a line-by-line and a device-by-device basis. So, they end up overpaying for telecom—sometimes by 40% or more—without even realizing it.
How can you make sure your school district isn’t one of them?
Getting a handle on your telecom environment can be eye-opening. At a minimum, here are the things you need to know to determine whether your district is paying too much:
Ultimately, that information will allow you to answer three vital questions:
This isn’t a one-time task: Even if you’re paying the right amount today, that’s no guarantee you will be tomorrow. Your district must go through this process regularly, because technology, pricing, and your needs all change. The upside, though, is immense—the more your district saves, the more it has to put toward other expenses or enhancements for students.
And the good news is you don’t have to do it alone.
