About BakerHostetler

BakerHostetler is a leading national law firm with a complex infrastructure that requires precise expense management to maintain operational efficiency and clear financial reporting across a large footprint. With a massive national presence, they rely on seamless communication to manage orders and customer inquiries across North America.

The Opportunity

In a high-stakes legal environment, network downtime is not an option. The firm needed an advisor who could provide more - they needed a strategic partner to vet providers, prepare annual budgets, and lead technical transitions like SD-WAN and SIP migrations.

The Solution

BAZ has acted as an extension of the firm's IT and Finance teams through several phases:

  • Voice Transformation: Re-architected local services to support centralized IP Telephony, yielding 56% savings.
  • Proactive TEM: Managed wireless carrier relationships and office moves while consistently outperforming Gartner’s industry savings benchmarks.
  • Network Modernization: Provided strategy and implementation for SD-WAN and SIP to increase redundancy and resilience.

The Results

The partnership has secured hundreds of thousands of dollars in credits and millions in cumulative savings. BAZ continues to manage the firm’s telecom environment, ensuring that every new technology initiative is both technically robust and financially optimized.
