Real-time mitigation

The challenge
  • Employees previously needed to email IT teams to request keyboard and mouse exchanges.
  • Only IT engineers and their teams were authorised to place catalogue orders.
  • The ordering cycle was lengthy.
What we did
  • Employees, in addition to IT engineers, could place orders through the portal from listed catalogue products.
  • Users could independently order the hardware they required and receive it in a shorter duration.
  • The process reduced dependence on the IT team.
  • It provided access to a larger local-partner product market, using a bulk model with local vendors.
