Solutions
Usage / Utilization
Put your data to work for your business.
Usage Management – also known as “Call Accounting” – got its start when telecom departments essentially served as a phone company for their organization. Now, years later, all kinds of organizations are seeking solutions to proactively manage the continuously expanding array of usage-based services both to recoup and reduce costs.
Whether you’re collecting CDR/SMDR data from phone switches and carrier files or managing other usage such as data services, print services, web services, etc., our team can help simplify the process of collecting, processing, and rating usage. This data can then be used for reporting, security inquiries, and chargeback.

Cable Infrastructure
Calming the chaos.
When your cable infrastructure is constantly changing, PCR-360 helps you keep track of everything and save money over the long haul. It’s one of the most overlooked areas in many organizations, but it makes a big difference for the businesses who make it a priority.
Tracking cable-related information ensures technicians are dispatched to the right place.

Chargeback / Billing
More than just cost recovery.
In just a few clicks, you can create monthly billing for your customers, including all usage, one-time, and recurring costs related to the services you provide. PCR-360 works with any financial system to automatically allocate charges by GL or budget codes and can also provide A/R functionality to create actual invoices that allow you to accept payments and track account aging.
Chargeback isn’t just about cost recovery. It’s about changing behavior to become more cost conscience across the organization. It’s ensuring you’re using the dollars you have in the savviest ways possible. PCR-360’s charge reports will help you gain better control of your expenses. Finally.

Expense Management
Find mistakes before they’re a big deal.
Communication services take up a large portion of your IT budget – typically 10-20% – and you need the assurance that the bills you receive from your carriers are correct. Managing this manually can be very time consuming and utilize some of your most valuable personnel resources. Utilizing a standard TEM service is very expensive and organizations with less than $5-10m annual spend typically see no ROI.
Our solution doesn’t have 50 or more audit points. Instead, it’s designed to pinpoint the most common vendor mistakes—the mistakes that really make a difference. By focusing on these areas, PCR is able to provide an incredibly affordable solution—saving you valuable time and money.

Reporting
Putting data to good use.
Having all of your data in a single repository is just a start. What good is that data if it isn’t helping you make better business decisions? While most vendors provide a number of canned reports and the ability for those with programming knowledge to create new reports, PCR takes a unique approach.
PCR-360 provides a variety of ways to assimilate data and create reports. With our solution, even non-technical staff can create reports and produce them in several different formats, in a matter of minutes. Together, we can turn your data into a weapon of productivity, efficiency, and cost savings.
