Telecommunications Consulting, Vendor Management &
SLA Negotiation

In today's rapidly changing technological landscape, it's crucial for businesses to have clear commitments from their service providers. However, many companies accept standard Service Level Agreements (SLAs) due to a lack of expertise or resources to negotiate better terms. Toledo Consulting bridges this gap by working with clients and service providers to create tailored technology solutions and agreements that include defined performance metrics and compensation for non-performance. We help you get the most out of your technology investments. Toledo Consulting is a full service telecommunications consulting practice. We design, negotiate, implement, and manage voice, video, and data networks (VOIP, SD/WAN, ISP, WIFI, Ethernet). We manage the relationship with the service provider and hold them accountable to key performance metrics. Contact us for your telecom vendor management in Toledo.

Profitability is closely tied to system controls in the service industry. Accurate inventory and cost analysis are crucial in assessing the financial performance of your business. Toledo Consulting offers solutions that provide management reports to help you understand your operations, including inventory and cost control. We work with your staff to implement controls that boost profitability and minimize waste. Our team includes certified professionals such as Kevin, an Ohio Level 2 ServSafe Manager, and Ohio ServSafe Instructor and Exam Proctor and ServSafe Alcohol instructor.
