How large is Telecom Expense Management (TEM)? Will suppliers find that they can't grow because they saturate the market? What is the future of an enterprise employee that is working in a TEM department? The answer depends on TEM is defined. If TEM is limited to focusing on auditing phone bills in the US the market is small. A good case can be made that enterprise customers expect more then just bill uditing from their TEM suppliers.
The ultimate goal of Telecom Expense Management is to ensure accurate and optimal spending on communication services. An effective TEM program manages the full lifecycle of telecom expenses with a focus on six major service domains: managing inventory, sourcing, ordering and provisioning, invoices, expenses, and payments. This broad definition allows for many additional services to be included as part of TEM. This in turn allows us to increase our estimates of the size of the TEM market.

What is Telecom Expense Management (TEM) and why is it critical to understand TEM? If you are like most large organizations, you are faced with tough times and a need to cut expenses. If it is done right, TEM is a great way to reduce expenses without cutting programs that you need. Improving how your organization manages telecom expenses, can have a dramatic impact on saving money . But TEM is often shrouded in a veil of complexity. Best practices in managing telecom expenses are not well understood, and many enterprises struggle with defining what to include in TEM programs.
