Why work with Pointbroker.com

Navigating US, Canadian and European Markets

Target Audience: Enterprise IT & Procurement Leaders expanding networks between the US, Canada, and Europe.

US Clients Expanding to Canada & Europe:

    • Pricing Models: Canada’s carrier oligopoly creates high local loop and long-haul wave costs; Europe features a fragmented market with localized power indexation and cross-connect fees.

    • Tariffs & Regulations: Heavy import duties on network equipment (routers, optical switches), local VAT/GST, and strict data sovereignty laws.

  • Canadian Clients Expanding to the US:

    • Vendor Landscape: Navigating thousands of US alt-nets, metro-E providers, and local exchange points vs. Canada’s few incumbent carriers.

    • Hidden Surcharges: Factoring in complex US regulatory fees (USF surcharges, state/local right-of-way fees) that inflate base quotes.

    • Currency Risk: Managing USD contract exposure against CAD fluctuations.

How We Help (The Value Add)

  • Transparent Unbundling: Breaking down carrier quotes to reveal true baseline costs versus marked-up rates.

  • Global Procurement: A single partner for multi-region RFPs, local loop negotiations, and hardware tariff compliance.

Schedule a Cross-Border Infrastructure Assessment to audit your US, Canadian, or European carrier quotes before signing.
