Why this bill is flagged
This bill has problems on five services. Four internet lines were canceled, but you are still being charged for them. One line is billed higher than the contract says. You could be overpaying $2,400. That is $1,800 for canceled lines, $130 for an overcharge, and $470 for more canceled lines we cannot match to a cancel date.

What you get

Catch every mistake, without the busywork.

Reads every invoice line AI

Forward a bill or drop in a PDF. Our AI pulls out every charge, even on hundred-page invoices, with no typing for your team.

Flags overcharges and rate jumps Finds money

We catch charges that jumped, rates that drifted off contract, and new fees that should not be there, sorted by the dollars at stake.

Kills zombie charges Cleanup

Services you canceled but still pay for get caught the moment they show up on a bill, not a year later.

Spend by line and department Tracking

See exactly where telecom spend goes, by line, site, account, and department, so you can trim what you do not need.

Beyond the bill, the full lifecycle TEM to TLM

TEM checks the invoice. Telecom lifecycle management (TLM) manages the service under it, from order to disconnect, so waste is stopped at the source, not just spotted on the bill.

Connected expense controls Strategy

Review rate plans, right-size or disconnect unused services, dispute billing errors, and prepare renewal or sourcing evidence from one baseline.

TEM defined

What telecom expense management covers.

Telecom expense management is the operating discipline behind accurate bills, clean service records, controlled contracts, and accountable carrier work. It starts with invoice collection, but it only works when each charge can be tied to a service, location, contract, owner, and action.

Vigilis connects invoice audit with inventory, contract, RFP, and MACD workflows. A charge that does not match the inventory becomes a review item. A rate that does not match the contract becomes a dispute. A service that should be disconnected becomes tracked carrier work rather than another spreadsheet row.

Operating model

Software-only or managed TEM.

The right model depends on whether your team wants to operate the workflows or delegate the day-to-day carrier work. Both should use the same source records and controls.

Model Your team owns Vigilis provides
Software-only Review, dispute filing, approvals, and carrier follow-up Invoice ingestion, normalized records, alerts, inventory, and workflow
Managed TEM Priorities, approvals, and business decisions The platform plus review, dispute filing, carrier follow-up, and reporting
Hybrid Selected vendors, regions, or work types Shared workflow with managed coverage where capacity is needed

See Outsourced TEM for the managed operating model and Pricing for the current plan structure.

Data normalization

Where telecom mediation fits.

In expense management, mediation means taking carrier data that arrives in different formats and translating it into consistent records that can be compared. Vigilis normalizes invoice, account, service, and contract data so charges can be matched across vendors and locations.

This is billing and inventory normalization. Vigilis does not position this capability as network-event or call-detail-record mediation for carrier billing systems. That distinction matters when evaluating telecom mediation software.

Evaluation

What to require from a TEM platform.

Traceable findings
Every alert should identify the invoice line, comparison point, owner, and dollars under review.
Connected records
Invoices, services, locations, contracts, and changes should reconcile to the same source of truth.
Controlled execution
Approvals, disputes, and carrier changes should be logged from request through completion.
A clear operating model
Know which work your team performs, which work the provider performs, and how exceptions move between them.

Review the dated TEM platform comparisons for published vendor scope, or use the telecom RFP workbook to structure a formal evaluation.

Telecom expense management, or TEM, is the process of collecting telecom invoices, validating every charge, allocating spend, tracking services and contracts, and resolving billing errors. Vigilis connects those records so the finding and the follow-through stay in one workflow.
Telecom expense management (TEM) focuses on the bill: auditing invoices, catching errors, and tracking spend. Telecom lifecycle management (TLM) is broader, managing the service itself from order through moves, changes, and disconnect. TEM tells you a canceled line is still billing; TLM makes sure it was actually disconnected in the first place. Vigilis does both.
A complete program connects rate-plan review, service right-sizing, disconnect verification, billing disputes, allocation, and renewal or sourcing evidence. Full contract-negotiation and brokerage services remain with Socium.
A typical rollout runs in four phases. First, connect your bills and carrier portals so we can pull every invoice. Second, we build a clean inventory and baseline your spend, usually within the first few weeks. Third, we audit, flag, and start working disputes and disconnects. Fourth, it becomes continuous: every new bill is checked automatically and renewals are flagged before they hit. Email and PDF upload work the day you sign up; connecting a carrier portal end to end takes 2 to 4 days.
Phone, internet, wireless, and data bills from any carrier, as a PDF, a forwarded email, or straight from the carrier portal. Long, multi-account invoices are no problem.
Software-only TEM gives your team the records, alerts, and workflows to run the program. Managed TEM adds people who review findings, file disputes, and complete approved carrier work. Vigilis supports both models, including a self-service plan and managed plans.
