Increased productivity through mobile working
With operations and employees dispersed across multiple locations, Computacenter needs to ensure its people can access key business data and applications regardless of where they are working. Although many staff were already using mobile devices as part of their daily routine, Computacenter wanted to take a more strategic approach that would maximise flexibility and minimise risk.

The solution will be a real game-changer in how we deliver functionality to users across the business.

OBJECTIVES
- Continuous Improvement/Innovation
- Growth/business change
Deploying Enterprise Mobility Management
We deployed an integrated Enterprise Mobility Management solution underpinned by Citrix technologies. We used our own technical blueprints, reference architectures and configuration guides to define, design and deploy the solution, which can provide a secure platform for both Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled (COPE) ownership models. The first phase of the solution provides around 750 staff with secure access to more than 10 corporate applications and a host of external apps on both iOS and Android devices. It will also enable business areas beyond sales to mobilise their teams.
Outcome
- Deliver a better user experience without compromising security
- Increased staff satisfaction
- Boosted workplace productivity
- Improve service delivery
- Enabled Computacenter to pass on knowledge and enhance the services it offers to customers
