We want to organize a group of service providers to get better bargain power
on rates. The target is to have >500000 minutes per month. If you like to
work together on this project, please send email to me off-line!

thank you!

Best way is to setup a non-profit corp which is a co-operative association. The members pay initiation fees and membership dues. The association is the wholesale buyer that resells to members. That means vendors are only dealing with one larger customer for billing and collection purposes. The members can authorize the association to sell things like surplus minutes or no-longer-needed hardware to non-members.

This is all very do-able if lower-volume users are serious about getting good rates, LNP, E911 and other services. All we need is an honest lawyer to be the trustee for the initial funds.

I don't see why such an organization could not apply for CLEC status, either.
