READ ONMany employees across Australia and New Zealand are now adapting to a more permanent remote workplace model that depends on reliable, up-to-date technology. This also has implications for how obsolete technology is upgraded, with a shift toward employees being responsible for managing their own technology refresh, leading to the end of organisational technology refresh programs.
This white paper explains why common delivery models for IT infrastructure fail to provide the agility that companies require. It shows how greater transparency, flexibility and cost control become possible when IT assets and services are unbundled, while business interruption risk and accounting risk are eliminated.
Conventional IT procurement methods are complex, protracted, and take up a lot of resources. IT departments waste valuable time on installing new workplaces and maintaining the existing systems landscape – time that could be used to address important strategic matters. The complete digitalisation of procurement processes and the involvement of users via a self-service portal frees up time and increases user satisfaction.
A good user experience is an important factor in creating value and achieving success. It enables companies to keep employees happy, accelerate digital change processes, and improve business outcomes. A digital workplace journey makes this easier to achieve than you might think.
The intelligent procurement, use, and remarketing of IT equipment allows companies to cut costs and be more resource-efficient and sustainable. This is a competitive factor that is growing in importance.
