Overview:
Carrier Source partnered with a leading U.S. children’s apparel retailer generating over $1.6 billion in annual sales, operating nearly 500 stores, and achieving $675 million in online revenue.
Through strategic telecom solutions, Carrier Source addressed critical infrastructure challenges related to cost, performance, and reliability, transforming the retailer’s operations.

Challenges
- Significant Billing and Service Issues
- Lack of a Secondary Data Center
- Unreliable Website Hosting
The retailer faced significant hurdles impacting cost efficiency, reliability, and scalability across critical areas of its operations. Excessive costs and service issues plagued POTS lines and broadband services at store locations, with additional charges for unrendered services. Corporate internet and private circuits carried disproportionately high expenses, further straining budgets. The absence of a secondary data center created a single point of failure, leaving the organization vulnerable to downtime and potential data loss. Compounding these issues, unreliable and unscalable website hosting jeopardized the retailer’s ability to support $675 million in annual online sales, especially during peak periods.

Value Add
- Billing and Telecom Services Review
- Secondary Data Center Deployment
- Website Hosting Modernization
- RFP Management for New Broadband Services
Carrier Source executed a two-phase approach to address the retailer’s challenges and drive operational improvements. In Phase I, a comprehensive review of billing and telecom services for POTS lines, broadband, corporate internet, and private WAN circuits uncovered discrepancies and inefficiencies. Carrier Source worked with carriers to resolve billing issues, negotiate cost reductions, cancel unused services, and secure credits for non-operational accounts. Additionally, a redundant secondary data center was designed and deployed, backed by a detailed RFP, business case, and ROI analysis, enhancing IT resilience with seamless failover capabilities and minimizing downtime.
In Phase II, Carrier Source modernized the retailer’s website hosting by migrating it to a reliable, scalable Tier-1 provider, ensuring high uptime and robust performance to handle peak traffic demands. A meticulous RFP process was also conducted to select a new broadband service provider, resulting in faster speeds, improved service quality, reduced costs, and consolidated billing across store locations. This strategic approach delivered immediate and long-term value to the retailer’s operations.
