What is Vendor Management?

Customers increasingly require global management of their communications, but find that a single provider is not capable of offering the best technology solutions, or the best prices, for all the services. And our Vendor Management service is an alternative, of global scope, to these situations.

With this unified provider management service, customers can directly contract third-party services, or directly with Telefónica Global Solutions, and trust us to manage all their providers and act as a single point of contact, acting on their behalf with contractors. Take advantage of the bargaining strength of a world leader: better price and quality.
