The Real Advantage

Take the Gamble Out of the Decision

Tel Tech Services provides a real advantage by removing the guesswork from selecting a communications company and telephone system. Receiving comprehensive information in advance enables you to make an informed decision based on an understanding of system performance, pricing, and service. As a national account installer for several manufacturers Tel Tech Services has been recognized for our strategic direction and dedication to quality technology implementation. We are proud to serve as advisory council members for manufacturers and the provincial apprenticeship board creating an important conduit for customer input with key business partners.

Our goal of establishing a long-term relationship with our clients begins with the first contact between Tel Tech Services and the prospective client. Our job is to listen to customer needs and provide a consultative approach to achieve their goals. By evaluating the expected outcome with the client, we help them to recognize the steps they need to take to achieve that outcome, and the sequence in which those steps should be taken.
Tel Tech Services can coordinate and implement projects starting with the ordering of telephone lines and digital circuits and ending with a complete communications solution.

The Tel Tech Services team takes great pride in successful project management. Our vast knowledge and experience allows us to implement solutions for a wide range of projects including simple upgrades to current telephone and client/server systems to complete voice, data, and video solutions, for start-up companies or companies that are moving/expanding.

The origins of our success in project and account management stem from our dedication to successful business relationships. Tel Tech Services understands the mission-critical nature your LAN, WAN, and communications hardware play in the smooth operation of your business. We provide the proper education and guidance to our clients from the beginning stages of their project. It is critical that we help our clients to understand system performance and functionality, hardware, pricing, and operations from day one of the project. Our emphasis on pre-planning helps to minimize confusion before and after the day of installation.

When a project is successfully completed, we maintain a partnership with our clients. We believe it is vital to develop a communications strategy and long-term technology plan based on company organizational structure, operations, department functions, business practices, and competitive approach. With client input, this working plan is designed to provide optimum return on voice, data, and video systems.

All of this adds up to a real advantage for your company.

Robust Solutions

 

When you examine the organizations that realize the greatest gains from technology, you find that it is never just one solution that helps them achieve their competitive advantage. More often than not, they have figured out a way to effectively integrate a variety of solutions into a unified communications platform that directly supports their business processes. Today, productive and effective business communications is a multimedia experience.

START WITH WHERE YOU ARE

Before Tel Tech Services can recommend a solution, we need to understand the fundamentals of your business — what you do, how you do it, and how you stack up against your competition. Are you competing on the basis of price or value? Are your team members centrally located or spread across the country? How are you presently communicating with customers, employees, and vendors? If a vendor doesn’t take the time to get to know you, how in the world can they recommend the right solution for your business? Our initial discussions with a client are always aimed at building an understanding of their core business. We then have a common foundation and can move forward as partners.

LOOK AT WHERE YOU’RE GOING

Tel Tech Services not only needs to understand where you are, but where you are going as well. How will your industry or company need to evolve in the next five years to remain competitive? What will you need to do to become or remain an industry leader and outpace the competition?

LEVERAGE TECHNOLOGY TO GET THERE

Every industry in America has embraced communications technology in one form or fashion to help them reach the “next level”, but what technology is right for you? How can it be integrated to enable a greater return on investment than similar stand-alone solutions? Let Tel Tech Services get to know you and your business, and we can help answer these questions.

Telecom Systems

 

We believe that your phone system is the heart and lungs of your organization. If the phones are not working properly, sales stop and customer service grinds to a halt. Likewise, a professional telecom solution will tell your customers that you are reliable and easy to work with, and that you expect and deliver high-quality solutions.

That is where Tel Tech Services comes in…

COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY

A properly designed telecom solution will help you better communicate with your end customers. Maybe it’s more effective in-bound call processing with a call center or automated attendant. Maybe it’s a strong music-on-hold campaign to better communicate your capabilities to the caller. Or maybe, it’s a leading edge mobility solution that helps your clients connect with you or you with your office from anywhere in the world. The bottom line is that effective communications solutions will help you increase revenues and customer satisfaction.

COMMUNICATE EFFICIENTLY

In today’s hectic business world, you also need solutions that help you accomplish more in less time. Tel Tech Services will show you how to consolidate your points of contact with Unified Communications, how to know if someone is at their desk before you try to call them, by utilizing a Presence feature, or how to avoid time-consuming travel by collaborating with others through web and video conferencing solutions. Time is a precious commodity, and we can help you streamline your processes to maximize its use.

COMMUNICATE PRODUCTIVELY

You can have effective communications solutions, and you can have efficient communications solutions, but what good are they if your people don’t know how to use them? What really sets Tel Tech Services apart from the competition is our passionate commitment to your productivity. We design and deploy solutions that are easy to use. Tel Tech Services relentlessly and proactively provides continuous training for your staff to ensure that they will know how to use the tools you’ve provided for them. Whether you’re looking for a simple, traditional key system for a small office, or you need a complex Voice-over IP solution that ties multiple locations together, we’re the partner for you. Let us show you how to communicate more productively!

Processes & Checklists

Getting the Most from Your Communication System

Tel Tech Services installs solutions designed specifically around your needs and agreed project scope. We utilize a structured project time line, prepared before contract acceptance. Our trained customer service representatives, trainers, and project coordinators work to design a customized implementation schedule with you.

How it works.

Front End Package. The FEP tells you who we are, why we’re in business, and what we do for you.

We meet with you. We look for two things during this meeting, how we can help your business be more profitable, and how we can give you a competitive advantage. We discuss the improvements you would like to make to your business. We take this away and develop a summary outlining the things we believe you said you wish to accomplish. We summarize this in a “project overview” and ask for your agreement that it represents your goals for the project.

We take a global approach to your overall telecom spend. We analyze your local lines, your long distance bills, your data bill and your cellular bill, to make sure you are spending the correct amount for your network services.

We meet with you again. With agreement on the project overview we prepare the proposal and schedule a meeting with you to present our solutions, including any network savings we find.

Upon approval of the project:

  • We submit the changes required to your Telephone line provider of your choice. This typically is the longest part of the cycle.
  • The project manager develops your project time line and application solution into a detailed implementation schedule. The team assigned to your project uses structured pre-planning strategies to minimize confusion throughout the project. Your participation and involvement is required to ensure the solution is custom-fit to your needs.
  • The scope of training needs, curriculum, and employee availability are defined, with particular attention paid to mission-critical groups or answer positions. The system administrator is selected. Pre/post-cut training is then scheduled.
  • A pre-survey is executed to determine where the system will physically be located, what phone numbers are present at the site, who gets what extension number, how your voicemail will be set up, etc. This provides the installation technician with a blue print to work from on install day.
  • Systems are then set up on our test bench and pre-programmed. This is based on the pre-survey worksheet and our own technical specifications. Technicians use a programming checklist to ensure consistent and complete adherence to our technical standards. The system is then allowed to run in our test environment to be “burned in” prior to installation.
  • On installation day. The installation date sees assistance from project management, training, and sales personnel on site.
  • During training, each employee will receive a Tel Tech Services designed “cheat sheet.” System administrators will be provided with more extensive support documents as well as a customer login id/password which they can use to manage the day to day changes to your system that come up. We also provide access to a series of training videos you can use to brush up on how to use features. Participants in the Partner Program have access to additional training any time they need it should you hire new employees or just forget how to do something.
  • A pre/post installation analysis is conducted by the team to evaluate project success and customer satisfaction, in some cases you will be asked to complete a Customer Satisfaction Survey to help ensure we are meeting customer satisfaction targets
  • A Post Install Checklist is executed about a week after installation has been completed. The checklist ensures Tel Tech standards have been adhered to. A site specific password is also entered at this time to maximize the security of your system against unauthorized access.
  • All systems are configured for remote access so we can quickly access your system to make any desired changes or determine the status should you find something not working properly.

In using these structured techniques, Tel Tech Services have the ability to execute a quick and seamless install that ensures customer satisfaction.

Project management will continue to provide additional assistance for as long as you are covered by our Tel Tech Partner Program

5 Year Warranty

Coverage You Can Count On

At Tel Tech Services, we believe the quality of the products we sell should be directly related to the warranty we offer on those products.   Since today’s telecommunication systems have become more complex and software driven, companies recognize the need to control ongoing costs.

  • For the first 30 days, all programming changes are non conditional and are made at no cost.
