NTT DATA Introduces Rapid, Secure and Cost-Effective Remote Workforce Solutions

Plano, TX – May 20, 2020 – NTT DATA today announced new rapid workplace solutions to help clients address challenges through improved remote productivity and collaboration, secure operations and optimized costs. As part of their comprehensive pandemic response portfolio, NTT DATA has customized four secure and cost-effective workplace solutions to enable new ways of working and drive productivity:

• Workspace as a Service: Cloud-hosted, fully managed virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and virtualized applications

• Omnichannel User Support: Rapid rollout of self-service user support solutions through channels of choice (chat, phone, etc.)

“The impact of the global pandemic has accelerated many of our clients’ workplace transformation plans. In fact, in a recent pulse survey* conducted by NTT DATA, 85 percent of employees said they want to continue working from home at least one day a week after the COVID-19 pandemic. 58 percent said they’d be likely to leave their employer if they were required to return to work and they felt unsafe,” said John DuBois, VP Digital Operations Practice, NTT DATA Services. “NTT DATA has built cloud-enabled, employee-focused solutions that are available now and can be delivered in a matter of weeks. These rapid solutions support clients today while accelerating their digital business agenda.”

NTT DATA’s Dynamic Workplace Services team has helped dozens of clients and tens of thousands of employees move quickly to adapt to remote workplaces, including:

• Helping a worldwide public health organization quickly scale to 100 percent remote work by ramping up a service desk and responding to a 500 percent increase in requests
• Scaling remote connectivity to support up to 10,000 simultaneous users and enabling secure remote access for all knowledge workers in 80 locations at a leading food packaging manufacturer
