Digital Transformation and Computing Devices
Ensuring employees have the right tools with the right features to deliver effectively on your business objectives, will be crucial to success. Consider three key objectives for endpoint devices in your overall strategy:
- Enable ANYWHERE working: In today’s organizations, almost 40% of the workforce is mobile**, and that number is only increasing. This mobile workforce doesn’t have a designated place of work, and depending on their role, might be working from ANYWHERE: their home, office, constituent site, supplier; the list is endless. Enabling this kind of work environment requires not only a strong IT backbone, but also smart endpoint devices that are adaptable, connected and productive from anywhere, just like their users.
- Enable ANYWHERE working: In today’s organizations, almost 40% of the workforce is mobile**, and that number is only increasing. This mobile workforce doesn’t have a designated place of work, and depending on their role, might be working from ANYWHERE: their home, customer site, café; the list is endless. Enabling this kind of work environment requires not only a strong IT backbone, but also smart endpoint devices that are adaptable, connected and productive from anywhere, just like their users.
- Enable ANY-WAY working: Another essential work requirement is the ability to create, collaborate and present when required. While today’s organizations must rationalize their workforce, employees often have varied responsibilities and will need different devices according to the roles they must perform.
