The IT department had concerns about consolidating carriers and getting reliable service to remote locations, so the client looked to BlueSky to recommend solutions, select providers and provide implementation and support.   **Solution:** BlueSky managed the RFP process, presenting seven top-tier carriers including a wholesale solution. BlueSky’s field technicians installed 110 sites in only 36 business days.   - RFP management - MPLS migration - Implementation - Support - Billing   **Impact**: The new solution saved 40% — totaling $1.8 million over three years — while increasing bandwidth 600% across all sites. The new solution also improved service by decreasing hold times and increasing resolution rates with the client’s NOC. ## Shared this post [Share via Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscover.blueskyitpartners.com%2Fcase-studies%2Fmoving-on-from-legacy-mpls-sd-wan) [Share via Twitter](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscover.blueskyitpartners.com%2Fcase-studies%2Fmoving-on-from-legacy-mpls-sd-wan&text=Moving+on+from+legacy+MPLS) [Share via Email](mailto:?subject=Moving+on+from+legacy+MPLS&body=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscover.blueskyitpartners.com%2Fcase-studies%2Fmoving-on-from-legacy-mpls-sd-wan) [Share via LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscover.blueskyitpartners.com%2Fcase-studies%2Fmoving-on-from-legacy-mpls-sd-wan&title=Moving+on+from+legacy+MPLS&summary=Moving+on+from+legacy+MPLS+SD-WAN) ![](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/hubfs/BlueSky-BPT-All-White-Logo-Small.webp) - [IT Consulting](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/it-consulting/) - Solutions - [Cloud & Data Center](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/cloud-data-center-solutions/) - [Cybersecurity & AI](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/cybersecurity/) - [Unified Communications](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/unified-communications/) - [Network Services](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/network-telecom/) - Services - [Field Services](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/field-services/) - [Lifecycle Management](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/lifecycle-management/) - [About Us](https://www.blueskyitpartners.com/about-us/) - Learning Center - [Blog](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/blog) - [Resources](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/learn) - [Case Studies](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/case-studies) - [Events](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/events) - [News & Awards](https://discover.blueskyitpartners.com/news-and-rooms) #### Contact Us BlueSky IT Partners 2429 Bissonnet, Suite 483 Houston, TX 77005 #### Local Phone: (713) 929-0950 #### National Toll Free: (877) 303-8037 #### Email [solutions@blueskyitpartners.com](mailto:solutions@blueskyitpartners.com) #### Follow Us © 2025 BLUESKY IT PARTNERS.
