We've seen it time and time again. Procurement teams focus on the wrong success metrics, like cost/meg, but fail to understand the effect that projected utilization has on more important metrics, like effective cost/meg. Your total spend on IP transit is over budget, and you are probably wasting tens, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars a year unnecessarily.
We'll start by taking a look at your contracts and your NMS to determine if you are over-buying.
We'll analyze your netflow stats and topology
You'll get recommendations for how to change your buying process and metrics, as well as see if there is an opportunity to save costs by disintermediating the transit provider with peering.

We've been on both sides of the table, selling and buying IP transit and know the right buttons to push
We've negotiated peering agreements with the biggest, toughest guys in the industry, Comcast, AT&T and Verizon to name a few.
We talk to some of the biggest networks in the world on a monthly basis, and in many cases, have them on speed dial!
For one customer, we reduced their transit traffic by 40% in just a few months by selectively targeting the right peers and getting them connected.
Big Picture
Often times, backbone topologies are arrived at through small incremental growth decisions.
Sometimes you end up with a star topology, or sometimes a long strand of serialized connections from POP to POP.
These architectures often result in increased cost and less resilient because they fail to take into account common fiber routes and your major traffic sources.
Where you put your Internet "drains" matters because you get charged a premium for buying transit in tier 2 and tier 3 markets.
