Telephone System Procurement Service

Due to advances in technology we recommend that schools replace their phone systems every 7-9 years. In addition to this most schools will be forced to upgrade or replace their existing phone systems by 2025 as BT have announced that they will be switching off their PSTN and ISDN line networks.

The Hurdles

It is vital for the safeguarding of pupils that the correct phone system and supplier are selected for your school. It is one of the most difficult products that schools must procure because of the following:

The choice of systems, technologies and suppliers are vast and complex
Schools have limited knowledge as phone systems are rarely purchased
Most telecoms companies don’t understand schools’ requirements and have limited products in their portfolio
As a result of the above schools are often exploited and overcharged

How to cross the Finish Line

Our in-depth knowledge of the telecoms market coupled with experience gained from helping hundreds of schools to procure new phone systems, make us the perfect partner to help your school.

By working together, we will ensure that your school benefits from the features that a modern phone system can offer, from the safeguarding of pupils and staff to improved communications.

Changing the telephone system is a daunting prospect as the technology involved is something staff in schools are not familiar with. We worked with TGE Solutions to help with the procurement process, most importantly they took time to understand our specific needs and provide guidance on the marketplace and options available. It was refreshing that TGE were not trying to sell me a system but to provide advice on the most suitable solution and then obtain the best price.
