Technology Expense Management FAQs
What is technology expense management (TEM)?
Companies’ tech expenses continue to climb as innovation creates new ways for businesses to transact. Companies are looking to save money but identifying cost-cutting opportunities isn’t as easy as it used to be. In many cases, expense data is siloed across multiple systems based on how or where the transaction occurred (telecom, mobile, cloud, etc.). TEMs automate and optimize IT invoices to help organizations cut costs across their IT infrastructure.

Is it telecom or technology expense management?
In the past, TEM was limited by categories like telecom and mobile. But to really see effective change, every bit of IT spending data needs to be accessible from a single platform. This approach allows you to see a holistic view where small costs are adding up and helps identify redundancies or nonessentials in your budget.
How does a TEM cut costs?
In order to mitigate the rising costs of technology, many companies cut high-cost initiatives. But in the long run, that can stifle necessary IT investments and doesn’t address the real challenge: invoices. As invoice numbers skyrocket, so too does opportunity to automate and optimize. Technology expense management provides insight into spending, and critically identifies the multitude of issues hidden in monthly payments that add up to make a huge dent in your company’s spending.
