You could easily just put the extensions in different contexts. I'm not sure
how freepbx handles this, but Asterisk certainly supports having different
handsets in different outgoing contexts. This is probably your best option

Another option is to have gotoif statements, based on the callerID of the
handset placing the call.

Another option, although it's bad in my opinion, is to train everyone in
Company A to dial a 9 for outgoing calls, and everyone in Company B to dial
8. That give 0 security, so again, it's bad, but it could work.
