Reduce costs and retire legacy technology. Renegotiate the contracts that fund what's next for your business.
Trusted Advisory Solutions Group partners with Fortune 500 IT sourcing and procurement organizations to decommission end-of-life technology and negotiate directly with AT&T, Verizon, Lumen, and the world's leading carriers — turning renewal cycles into material savings, cleaner contracts, and stronger vendor accountability.
We negotiate directly with the carriers your enterprise depends on
What We Do
Sourcing and negotiation, engineered for enterprise IT
We embed with your sourcing and procurement teams to run the technical, financial, and contractual work that carrier negotiations demand — and that internal teams rarely have the bandwidth or leverage to run alone.
Telecom Contract Negotiation
Direct negotiation with AT&T, Verizon, Lumen, and other carriers on MPLS, SD-WAN, dedicated internet, voice, mobility, and managed services agreements.
Legacy Technology Decommissioning
Structured retirement of end-of-life circuits, PBXs, MPLS, and legacy carrier services — with clean cutovers, credit recovery, and disconnect discipline.
RFP & Sourcing Strategy
End-to-end RFP design, carrier down-selection, term-sheet development, and MSA/SOW negotiation aligned to your enterprise architecture and roadmap.
Benchmarking & Spend Analysis
Line-by-line invoice audits, market-rate benchmarking, and rationalization to expose overbilling, ghost services, and above-market pricing.
Network Transformation Advisory
Independent guidance on SD-WAN, SASE, cloud connectivity, and next-generation WAN — vendor-neutral, sourced to your business case.
Contract Governance & Optimization
Ongoing contract lifecycle management: renewal calendars, true-up defense, service-credit enforcement, and mid-term amendment leverage.

Built to sit on your side of the table
Trusted Advisory Solutions Group is an independent advisory firm serving IT sourcing and procurement organizations inside Fortune 500 enterprises.
