We do not have work cellphones, so can not help directly.  However, I
wonder if GoogleFi will roll into GoogleApps MobileDeviceManagement.
Someday, provisioning a user in LDAP  as a member of the SmartPhone org may
be all that is needed.

I want to bring cellphones into asterisk SIP, so they can be an extension
of our phone system.  Does having a biz plan open up doors for this?
