Mobility
Every Device, Every Carrier, One Accountable Partner
Key Takeaways
Managed Mobility Services (MMS) put the whole life of your company phones and tablets under one accountable provider: buying, setting up, securing, controlling the carrier bills, and recycling devices safely at the end. ObsidianX sources mobility across the AVANT portfolio, typically cutting mobile spend 15 to 30 percent while closing security gaps.
Phones, tablets, and hotspots multiply faster than any team can track. We manage the entire mobile lifecycle, from procurement and zero touch provisioning to carrier optimization, MDM security, and certified recycling, so your fleet stops being an afterthought that leaks money.

Key benefits of our Managed Mobility services
Consolidated billing and cost optimization
Unify every carrier invoice into a single, transparent bill. Automated auditing flags unused lines, plan mismatches, and overage charges, typically saving 15 to 30 percent on mobile spend.
Enterprise grade MDM security
Consistent security policies enforced on every device, corporate or BYOD: remote wipe, encryption enforcement, and compliance monitoring that satisfies HIPAA, PCI, and SOC 2 obligations.
Full device lifecycle management
Procurement, staging and kitting, break/fix repair, warranty management, and certified secure recycling at end of life. Every stage handled, nothing left to ad hoc processes.
Multi-carrier integration
All major wireless carriers managed through a single platform, so every location gets the best available network without your team juggling separate contracts, portals, and support lines.
Zero touch onboarding
New hires receive fully configured devices on day one, with pre loaded apps and automated provisioning. No more week-long waits for a working phone.
Device as a Service (DaaS)
Shift device costs from capital expenditure to a predictable monthly per device cost that includes protection, staging, repair, replacement, and secure storage.
Where it pays off
Taming a multi-carrier fleet
Organizations with 50+ devices across multiple carriers consolidate contracts, billing, and support into one managed relationship with real negotiating leverage.
Closing the BYOD security gap
Personal devices on the network get enrolled, policied, and monitored, turning a mix of unmanaged endpoints into a consistent, auditable mobile estate.
Day one onboarding at scale
Growing and seasonal workforces get preconfigured devices shipped with welcome kits, cutting onboarding from weeks to a single day.
Secure decommissioning and e-waste compliance
Departing employees and end of life hardware follow a formal wipe, recovery, and certified recycling process that protects data and satisfies environmental requirements.
Perfect for
- Organizations managing 50+ mobile devices or lines
- Multi-carrier businesses with no single point of contact
- Regulated industries whose HIPAA, PCI, or SOC 2 obligations extend to mobile
- Companies with field teams or distributed workforces

Managed Mobility in your industry
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions buyers actually ask about managed mobility, answered plainly.
What are Managed Mobility Services, and how are they different from MDM software?
MDM is a software tool that enforces policies on enrolled devices. Managed Mobility Services cover the entire mobile lifecycle around that tool: device procurement, provisioning, carrier and expense management, security enforcement, repair, and certified recycling, all delivered by one accountable provider. Analyst firms including Gartner track MMS as its own managed services category.
How much can managed mobility actually save?
Most organizations without centralized mobile management waste 15 to 30 percent of their mobile budget on unused lines, oversized data plans, and unmanaged roaming. Consolidated billing and automated plan auditing typically recover that spend within the first optimization cycle.
Do we have to switch carriers?
No. The first step is consolidating and optimizing what you already have: auditing every line, right-sizing plans, and unifying billing. Where a different carrier genuinely serves a location better, we source it vendor-agnostically, but switching is an outcome of the analysis, never the starting assumption.
What is Device as a Service?
DaaS replaces large upfront device purchases with a predictable monthly per device cost that bundles the hardware with protection, staging, repair, replacement, and secure storage. It smooths budgeting, keeps employees on current hardware, and removes end of life disposal risk.
What happens when a device is lost or an employee leaves?
Enrolled devices can be remotely locked and wiped immediately, protecting sensitive data before it walks away. Departing employees follow a decommissioning workflow that recovers the hardware, wipes it to standard, and returns it to inventory or certified recycling.
How do we pick a business cell phone plan across carriers?
Start from usage rather than from the plan sheet. Most estates carry a mix of heavy data users, people who mainly need voice and messaging, and a tail of lines nobody has used in months, and the plan that suits one of those groups is wrong for the others. Pooled data usually beats per line allowances once you have enough lines to average out the spikes, but pooling is only worth it if someone reviews the pool. The traps are device instalments still billing after the handset is paid off, international and roaming charges nobody predicted, and lines for people who left. Carrier choice then comes down to coverage where your people actually work, which is an address question rather than a map question. We inventory the estate first, then put carriers against the real profile.
