TnT Expense Management Launches Service Oriented Architecture for
Global Access to Telecom and IT Expenses
Integrated System Enables Real-Time, Internal Insight into Data
SANDY HOOK, Conn. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) February 25, 2008 --
In an effort to further expand its global TEM services and provide
access to important financial and IT related information, TnT Expense
Management, an industry recognized, premiere provider of telecom expense
management (TEM) services, today launched a new Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA) that will enable clients to access inventory, spend
and rate information directly from their own internal applications. TnT
Expense Management maintains in-depth information about clients’
IT and telecom assets with its copyrighted Telebase®
system, and the new SOA allows secure access and synchronization with
any application that a client is running regardless of the operating
system, language or platform.
The new SOA launched by TnT Expense Management will enable clients to
access a detailed inventory of devices, company spend and carrier rate
information in real-time and from any application or platform that they
run internally. This service is no additional charge for TnT Expense
Management clients and will alleviate the pain of manually pulling data
from multiple systems. International clients will also be able to
generate reports and pull necessary information about their offices
around the world, in their respective languages. Managing network
telecom and IT expenses across international business units presents a
growing challenge for companies, resulting in the growth of the global
management segment for TEM providers. TnT Expense Management is
continually improving upon its full service TEM offerings to provide
seamless management for national and international clients and enable
centralized management of expenses.
“TnT Expense Management has always been ahead
of the curve in providing the most in-depth reporting in the industry
and providing access to this information through single sign-on
integration,” said Michael Bodetti, president
and CEO of TnT Expense Management. “This new
technology allows us to go one step further and provide customized data
for each client through their own applications. TnT Expense Management
will continue to maintain the most detailed, up-to-date inventory and
clients will now be able to utilize this information as necessary
through a familiar system.”
Sample scenarios enabled with TnT Expense Management’s
new SOA include:
-
Ability for clients to approve payment of invoices audited and
processed by TnT Expense Management through their own A/P system
-
Option for IT managers of International companies in any country to
generate reports, in their own language and using their own
applications, to determine the number of wireless devices and data
circuits on-site at a location anywhere in the world
-
Utilize clients’ own internal expense report
program to evaluate total or itemized cell phone costs for employees –
the application belongs to the client, but the data is being pulled in
real-time from the TnT Expense Management Telebase system.
-
Ability to access real-time data versus cut and paste techniques to
generate client based reports
-
Functionality of clients’ current reporting
platform can be used – an application can
be set so that data is pulled from TnT Expense Management’s
Telebase system at predetermined times so clients’
are sure they have the most current information.
-
A clients’ procurement system can link to
the TnT database to access current inventory and pricing information
to be used for internal approvals or orders to vendors.
“This announcement of implementation of
Service-Oriented Architecture is a smart move by TnT Expense Management
that recognizes telecom expense management data needs to be more
accessible and part of a bigger system to provide maximum impact to
enterprises,” said Joe Basili, vice president
of research at AOTMP. AOTMP has found that the data behind enterprise
telecom and IT expenses is the most powerful tool for making decisions
in managing technology, growth, and budgeting.
