Stop overpaying for yesterday’s technology. CMG aligns your infrastructure with modern market rates and performance standards. Through our benchmarking, sourcing, RFP management, or carrier market analysis, CMG has the right solution to meet your requirements.

Cloud & Data Center Efficiency

As workloads shift to the cloud, many organizations are left with “zombie” data center infrastructure and over-provisioned SaaS licenses.

• Data Center Right-Sizing: We audit your colocation power, rack space, and cooling to ensure your physical footprint matches your actual usage.
• Microsoft (MS) Optimization: A deep-dive audit of your M365 and Azure spend to identify unused licenses, redundant feature tiers, and “orphaned” cloud instances.
• Hybrid Strategy: We provide the financial modeling to determine which workloads should stay on-prem and which should move to the public cloud for maximum ROI.

POTS Transformation (Analog to Digital)

Traditional copper landlines are reaching “end-of-life,” and carriers are passing the maintenance costs onto you. We stop the price hikes by modernizing your specialty lines.

• POTS-in-a-Box (LTE/5G): We replace expensive analog lines with secure, cellular-backed appliances that emulate dial tone for critical services.
• Life-Safety Compliance: Seamless migration for fire panels, elevator phones, security alarms, and fax machines.
• The Impact: Immediate cost reduction of 40–60% and the elimination of unpredictable carrier “maintenance” surcharges.

Next-Gen Connectivity (MPLS to SD-WAN)

Rigid, expensive MPLS circuits are no longer the gold standard for cloud-heavy organizations. We help you transition to an agile, software-defined network.

• SD-WAN Deployment: We design a hybrid approach using DIA (Dedicated Internet Access), Broadband, and LTE to replace or augment your MPLS.
• Dynamic Path Selection: Ensure your critical apps (Teams, Zoom, ERP) always have the highest priority and lowest latency.
• Carrier Agnostic: We manage the RFP process across 200+ global providers to find the best bandwidth-to-dollar ratio for your specific footprint.

Internet & Bandwidth Optimization

High-speed connectivity shouldn’t come with high-margin “loyalty taxes.” Internet is a commodity, yet many enterprises pay widely varying rates for the same service across different locations. We rationalize your global internet spend.

• DIA (Dedicated Internet Access) Benchmarking: We leverage proprietary market data to ensure you are paying current market rates, often resulting in double the bandwidth for the same price.
• Aggregator Advantage: Instead of managing 50 different ISP invoices, we consolidate your global footprint into a single interface with a unified SLA.
• Carrier Diversity Audit: We identify “Single Points of Failure” where your primary and backup circuits might be sharing the same local fiber path, ensuring true uptime.

Voice & Collaboration (PRI to SIP/UCaaS)

Paying for fixed 23-channel PRIs is an outdated way to handle voice. We transition your organization to scalable, usage-based communication models.

• SIP Trunking: Move away from physical hardware circuits to virtualized voice paths that scale up or down based on actual call volume.
• UCaaS Integration: We facilitate the move to Unified Communications (Microsoft Teams, RingCentral, Zoom) to eliminate on-site PBX maintenance and hardware costs.
• Centralized Management: Consolidate disparate phone bills from multiple locations into one streamlined, optimized monthly invoice.
