Adveo International : implements a new integrated workplace management center with Grupo Econocom

In the context of its transformation strategy, ADVEO has strengthened digitalization of processes and relations with vendors and customers

Madrid, May 10th 2018.- Aiming at improving both intern users and customers experience, ADVEO has implemented various initiatives to strengthen digitalization of processes and relations with vendors and customers. One of the key measures is the implementation of an integrated workplace management center with help from Grupo Econocom.

This cooperation agreement will stand for 5 years and the solution designed by Grupo Econocom covers logistics and distribution operations, installing and setting equipment, services linked to the maintenance of infrastructure, financing, in situ support and a 5languages helpdesk for the users of the ADVEO equipment and basic applications. All this will be implemented under a pay-per-use model, covering more than 800 positions in 6 countries.

With this new model of services ADVEO, apart from saving costs with respect to its former situation, will have a lever available to make its intern processes more flexible. This will be decisive to support operations with its customers and suppliers in the future.

"The flexibility that offers Econocom as an international operator has been determining to implement this project in France, Italy, Germany, United Kingdom, Spain and Portugal. This has allowed us centralize the project in an only contact point and make our processes more dynamic, that is, giving a more efficient answer and more quality in delivering our services", states Daniel Lago, Head of Corporate Technology at ADVEO.

"This 360º solution in a pay-per-use model will not only report improvements for the company, but will also revert in a better service for all our customers. This solution will allow us update our hardware more easily, responding to individual needs and making easier to acquire cuttingedge technologies, something essential for us, since we need to have the best technological resources to reach a business model according to the current digital reality", underlines Daniel Lago.

"It is a great pleasure for Econocom to count on ADVEO's trust; and it's an innovating challenge to deploy all our capacities in this project, creating a transformation plan for the workplace that covers from distribution to financing, including support and value services for infrastructure and applications", affirms Enilio Álvarez, Head of Strategic Accounts and Business Solutions at Grupo Econocom.
