DES PLAINES, Illinois (December 09, 2020) — In RAM Communications’ two decades in business, its work with the Glen Ellyn Park District stands out even among the company’s many success stories. RAM Communications delivered 45% percent savings in telecommunications costs without a single interruption in service. The Glen Ellyn Park District saved so much money with RAM, it recouped the cost of its phone service revamp in just one month. RAM Communications' work with the Glen Ellyn Park District began in 2009. The park district’s finance director wanted RAM to inventory the AT&T accounts for its growing number of facilities and provide a more cost-effective service agreement. RAM looked at each phone line, circuit, and related equipment on-site to verify the information listed in the park district’s phone bills were accurate. After testing each number and service, RAM was able to get rid of outdated lines. RAM Communications then presented the Glen Ellyn Park District with three separate package options for review. “RAM took the time to explain what we had and how our services work,” said Glen Ellyn Park District Director of Finance Laurelyn Woods. “We have an updated inventory of all our services. [RAM Communications owner Rob McCoy’s] staff found several new plans and we were able to choose one that best fit our needs.” Once the Park District chose its package, RAM Communications managed the paperwork and billing changes. RAM now tracks all the order numbers, accounting, and quality control on the park district’s behalf. RAM Communications can draw upon its years of experience working alongside several park district clients across DuPage and suburban Cook Counties to deliver such success stories. Those clients include the Arlington Heights, Bloomingdale, Glen Ellyn, Park Ridge, and Winnetka park districts. The company also joined the Illinois Parks & Recreation Association (IPRA) this year.
