The modern workplace - more than just a catchword ...

In an extremely dynamic and budget-oriented business world, it is becoming increasingly difficult to support user devices such as desktops, notebooks and smartphones in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner while providing the very latest technology.  

For many years Kontron has been one of the best known Austrian providers of modern workplace services, with countless satisfied customers. Multinational corporations rely on Kontron's services just as much as typical Austrian medium-sized companies. 

The advantages of professional modern workplace management are clear: 

  • Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
  • Fast availability of workplaces
  • Innovative technologies ensure minimal installation and operating costs
  • Easy and efficient client management
  • Innovative financing models to ensure balance sheet optimisation, such as Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS)
  • Provision of modular services up to full outsourcing of client management

Kontron modern workplace services

Consulting: Modern workplace projects start with a thorough analysis of problems and potentials for optimisation. Best-practice models as well as experience from countless customer projects are discussed during a workshop, the results of which ideally flow directly into the design of an optimal solution. Taking a comprehensive view that includes logistics, costs and technology is usually important due to the increasing complexity. The result of this kind of analysis is usually a clear recommendation for action while taking the financial side of things into account. 

Integration: Well-established processes, outstanding know-how and problem awareness, a high degree of automation and efficient logistics ensure customer satisfaction when it comes to integrating modern workplace services and products. During the implementation process Kontron follows the recommendations of PRINCE2 methodology in order to minimise implementation times and risks. 

Outsourcing: Hardly any other company has such a flexible and modular range of services as well as the experience that Kontron has to offer in building a modern workplace. From pre-installation and roll-out to certified data erasure and recycling of old equipment, Kontron offers powerful solutions and outstanding know-how to ensure that optimisations can be made and problems avoided. The result is successful outsourcing projects which, among other things, create scope for developing measures to boost core business.
