Charleston, SC – April 16th, 2025 — In response to the escalating complexity and cost of managing datacenter collocation expenses, Sage Management, the industry leader in datacenter network lease audits, today announced a strategic partnership with Rackonomics to launch Sage Datacenter Expense Services (DCES) Powered by Rackonomics—a recurring, automated solution that transforms how enterprises manage and control their datacenter and Type II network costs.
Datacenter costs have rapidly become the fastest-growing network expense for global telecom carriers, enterprises, and government agencies. With over 11,000 datacenter operator locations globally—and M&A activity disrupting operational consistency—most organizations struggle with inconsistent inventory records, unmanaged cross-connects, and inefficiencies that lead to wasted spend.
For nearly a decade, Sage has helped clients realize substantial savings through its best-in-class physical audit of datacenter and wirecenter collocation networks. Now, by integrating Rackonomics’ powerful expense management software, the new Sage DCES offering enables automated, monthly reconciliation and optimization of datacenter expenses—a first in the industry.
“Enterprises shouldn’t have to wait for periodic audits to regain control over their datacenter costs,” said John Nolan, CEO of Sage Management. “With Rackonomics’ technology powering our proven audit framework, we’re giving clients an always-on solution that proactively eliminates waste and aligns costs with operational needs.”
Robert Davidson, CEO and founder of Rackonomics, added: “This partnership brings together precision technology and hands-on industry expertise to deliver real-time visibility and actionability across the entire datacenter ecosystem.”
