"On average 7% to 12% of telecom service charges are in error."

Consumption of usage-based telecommunication services by end-users typically accounts for 75% of telecommunication service costs within a business. Therefore, a key aspect of managing telecommunication costs is managing the behaviour of end-users.
The key to managing usage of telecommunication services is to establish a policy for the use of telecommunication services. Without policies on acceptable usage and regular reporting against these policies, usage costs can spiral out of control and performance can be impacted. Policy can be enforced by a combination of system restrictions, such as call barring and URL filtering, and monitoring.
