Strategic Sourcing of Global Network Services
A global financial services provider faced rising telecom costs and growing complexity across 20 international office locations. Rapid expansion had led to a fragmented network of 33 different providers, inconsistent service levels, and limited transparency - exacerbated by internal knowledge loss over time. MMG stepped in as a strategic sourcing partner to redesign the network approach. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of all connectivity services - including cloud access, data centers, MPLS, Ethernet, and IP gateways - and led a global tender process. The results were immediate and substantial:
Impacts
49% cost savings across all network services
Consolidation from 33 to 4 global providers, reducing operational complexity
100% risk-free engagement with full alignment on business continuity and security
