Is your digitalization strategy stuck in a jam? Then let agile IT procurement set your wheels in motion again. It can significantly reduce the burden on your IT department, increase buy-in across your organization, and boost employee satisfaction and productivity – both at home and abroad.

At the start of every project, there is the question of budget and the right type of finance. There are a number of ways to incorporate flexibility and meet specific requirements. Rental models can be implemented at short notice, but often come with fixed conditions such as prescribed manufacturers and services. Leasing models have the advantage of being customizable and easily integrated into your processes. You are free to choose your devices, service providers, payment streams (incrementally increasing or decreasing, etc.), and usage period, while options such as an early-return service can bring maximum agility to your IT landscape. It is important to determine in advance which services and systems will be needed over the IT equipment’s entire usage period to ensure that the right decisions are made based on a comprehensive TCO analysis.

Digital processes can go a long way to making IT procurement less of a strain on scarce IT resources. A digital asset management tool such as tesma can automate the entire order process, bringing an end to endless paperwork and lengthy approval processes. An integrated self-service module gets users involved in the order process, thus boosting employee buy-in and motivation across the organization. The delivery of IT equipment directly to remote workers’ homes provides an additional boost to employee satisfaction. And pre-configuring devices using Intune or Autopilot saves time while further improving user satisfaction and productivity. Empower your end users and reduce the burden on your departments.
