General Contractor Uncovers $1.25M in Hidden Mobility Waste

How a leading US contracting firm running 3,500 devices across 12 regional offices replaced four disconnected systems with one governed view and recovered $1.25 million a year.

The mobility program was functioning. Devices were issued, invoices were processed, and internal processes were in place. But it was not optimized.

As the company scaled, mobility became more complex, more manual, and harder to govern. Growth wasn’t the problem. Complexity was. What appeared operational on the surface concealed fragmentation beneath.

The Challenge: Fragmented Systems Created Operational Strain

Carrier data resided in the Verizon portal, device management lived in Workspace ONE, lifecycle updates depended on cross-checking multiple systems, and financial tracking sat within internal accounting.

Every month, IT reconciled carrier billing files, device inventories, usage records, and internal lifecycle logs.

🧩

Four disconnected systems

Carrier portal, MDM, lifecycle records, and accounting each held part of the picture — none held it all.

💸

Overspend accumulated quietly

Inactive lines remained active and plans drifted from real usage, month after month.

⏳

Delayed lifecycle actions

Replacement devices waited while teams verified status across multiple systems.

We weren’t managing mobility. Mobility was managing us.

Manual reconciliation became routine. Overspend accumulated quietly. The issue was not connectivity, but the absence of a unified mobility program delivering visibility, control, and continuous improvement.

The Solution: Unified Mobility Control, Automated Outcomes

Carrier data, device records, usage activity, and billing were consolidated into a single, real-time mobility view. Line status, assignments, and lifecycle updates were synchronized, eliminating conflicting records.

Three integrated solutions established control:

Smart Optimization

Continuously analyzed billing and usage to eliminate zero and low-usage lines and ensure plans matched data usage.

OneSync

Connected Verizon data with the Workspace ONE MDM platform, aligning usage, device status, and support activity into a single view.

Smart Asset Management

Centralized device tracking across deployment, repair, and retirement, restoring lifecycle visibility and consistency.

Together, these solutions replaced fragmented oversight with automated governance, real-time visibility, and measurable mobility control. What had been operational became optimized.

The results

Governed Mobility, Measurable Control

With unified visibility in place, mobility oversight shifted from manual coordination to structured governance — and leadership gained confidence in the data guiding decisions.
