Trust and outcomes are key factors in new long-term business relationship
CHICAGO, March 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cannon Group's ability to deliver solid results has earned them an opportunity to work hand-in-hand with DeVry procurement on more comprehensive telecom activities.
According to Michele Danza, Senior Director of Supply Management at DeVry, the "award of increased responsibilities to Cannon Group results from a strong and continued confidence" in the Cannon Group team. "Cannon Group is client-focused and a great advocate for DeVry," Danza says. "They bring a high level of inspection and scrutiny to DeVry's telecom contracts and our growing infrastructure. We entrust their team with priority telecom-related projects."
Cannon Group's managed telecom services and responsibilities have broadened to include sourcing strategy, contract negotiation and expense management. Cannon Group and DeVry will continue to collaborate on projects that help deliver a better experience for the student and administrative population at campus locations throughout the U.S.
Tom Cannon, Principal of Telecom sourcing, consulting and expense management for Cannon Group, says it's these collaborative efforts that define the firm.

Since hiring Cannon Group in 2007 to manage its primary carriers, DeVry's telecom environment has evolved to include a more complex set of carrier services.
