Rivermine's Telecom Expense Management software and managed services save many companies and government agencies MILLIONS of dollars per year.
Rivermine for Government Agencies
Rivermine’s Federal division is committed to assisting Federal agencies and departments seeking to apply automation to the management of their telecommunications processes. Our standards-based, enterprise-class software package was written to specifically address the entire lifecycle of telecommunication management and control.

“Agencies must describe and identify the functional characteristics, capabilities, and interconnections of the hardware, software, and telecommunications”

GovernmentNetwork Convergence – Many challenges face consolidation efforts of voice or data networks. Quite often, there is no understanding of what services exist, nor is there an automated process for decommissioning circuits and re-purposing hardware. Migration strategies to VPNs and VoIP are rarely based on steady state analysis and optimization reporting. Rivermine Software accomplishes these tasks with a unified software solution set and an easy-to-navigate web interface.

Continuity of Operations (COOP) and Disaster Recovery (DR) Planning – Expedient recovery from power outages, network viruses, system failures, or even carrier problems is greatly exacerbated without an accurate inventory of telecom assets. Rivermine Software assures up-to-date visibility into ones data, voice, and wireless footprint.

Sarbanes – Oxley Compliance – The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Government Accounting Office (GAO) are mandating increased regulatory compliance. Rivermine Software’s Financial Management module significantly increases accuracy of invoices, facilitates bill dispute and resolution, and properly distributes costs to specific billing codes and cost centers.

Wireless Deployments – Automated order, distribution, billing and disconnect processes are necessary to support the deployment of wireless networks and associated devices from cellular phones to Blackberries, Land Mobil Radios, pagers, and even calling cards.

The above issues demand the use of software that provides a comprehensive inventory of circuits, services, equipment, and users. Based on this complete and accurate inventory, government agencies can then efficiently, and accurately, order and provision telecommunications services, allocate costs, and automate the process of receiving, auditing and paying telecommunications invoices.

“Effective internal control is the foundation of reliable financial reporting and effective and efficient program operations.”
