The workplace continues to change in response to evolving employee needs, and mobility is key. It’s hard to imagine work life without smartphones and tablets. 75% of users say their smartphones make them more productive, and 96.77% of users say productivity apps are the most dominant kind of apps on mobile.
Field-based employees, those who travel, and other mobile workers are a large percentage of the workforce. Recent trends like bring your own device (BYOD) and remote working are intensifying demand for new, cutting-edge devices. Businesses need a managed mobility strategy now more than ever.
This article will cover what managed mobility services are, their benefits, and where you can go.
What Are Managed Mobility Services?
Managed mobility services (MMS) transform a business into a mobility-equipped enterprise. This includes the:
- procurement of devices.
- deployment of devices by delivering them to the right people with the right settings and configurations; think business apps, tools, and content.
- management of devices.
Altogether, this virtually bridges the connection between the remote workforce and the enterprise.
Benefits of Managed Mobility
A strong MMS solution from a reputable provider comes with a number of benefits.
Achieve the Best Terms and Conditions
A good MMS provider brings a deep understanding of the industry and what they are offering. They will help you achieve the best possible contract terms, rates, and conditions.
Follow Ownership Best Practices
Get insight into ownership best practices. By having the right protocols and processes in place, like data encryption and password protection, your business benefits are maximized and challenges mitigated.
Improve Bottom-Line Results
By having mobility managed outside the business, employees are freed up to focus on core activities and to work more strategically. This efficiency and productivity lead to significant cost savings, thereby improving bottom-line results.
Increase Productivity
Increase productivity for employees who work some or all of their time outside the office. Allow others to work remotely for the first time, too. When employees can be agile and flexible with how and where work is done, they are more productive, and customer experiences improve.
Optimize Mobile Devices
Have mobile devices set up with the specific software, settings, and apps you need before delivery. This way, everything will be ready to go. Some common examples include installing Microsoft Outlook for email, Skype for video conferencing, and CRM software specifically needed for individual workers or departments.
Receive Lifecycle Management Support
A good MMS provider will support you throughout the entire mobile lifecycle. Should this reach the end-of-life stage, activities include:
- erasing all data from every device.
- refurbishing working devices.
- recycling any devices beyond the point of repair.
- the buyback of any device no longer needed by the company.
