Mobility
Mobility solutions have gone mainstream. No longer is a mobile project an afterthought, but rather one of a company's more strategic deployments.
In fact, Gartner surveyed 1,400 global CIOs and found that “mobile workforce ennoblement” ranked third as a technology priority for calendar year 2006*.
Benefits include better customer responsiveness, increased employee productivity, enhanced organizational efficiency, and streamlined business processes, all of which can lead to competitive advantages.
The mobile worker population on a global basis is exploding. In 2009, IDC expects there to be 878 million mobile workers worldwide. In today's global, instant-response world, it is important that organizations allow these workers to have important information available wherever they are. The most pervasive mobile application today, email, speaks to the importance of communication within an organization.
Technology advances in mobility in the areas of software, mobile devices and mobile operator services allow for quicker, less complicated and lower-priced solutions to be deployed in a much shorter timeframe. Additionally, these advances ensure that the solutions are not isolated entities, but integrated, extended components of an existing business infrastructure.
Businesses of all sizes are seeking to do more with fewer resources. They are seeking out mobility solutions as differentiators, a way to compete in the market.
They are asking questions such as:
How can we leverage new and innovative mobile technologies without increasing support costs?
How can these solutions drive improvements to end users and across a broader set of the company's employee base?
How do mobility solutions have a direct impact on my bottom line.
