Bangalore, India, November 24, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The National Outsourcing Association (NOA) has presented Infosys and BT with the 2013 award for excellence in telecommunication, utilities and hi-tech outsourcing. The project has made it easier for BT’s 20,000-strong field engineers to work on the move and has led to significant productivity improvements.
Highlights
The solution addressed the inefficiencies and costs associated with traditional ways of coordinating, managing and tracking the workload of a mammoth field force.
Infosys and BT collaborated to improve the field engineer’s experience and accelerated response rates by taking a transformational approach to field management.
The system leverages advances in mobility and uses a new device-agnostic system to enable the field force to dynamically react to change requests.
An easy-to-use, intuitive user interface also helped accelerate learning cycles
The solution is well on its way to delivering productivity improvements of more than 30 percent.
