Leading provider of medical devices in the global healthcare sector
Supporting the customer´s move to a cloud-first strategy
How the customer reduced TCO of their IT, increased employee productivity, optimised application performance and delivered improved flexibility and security
Business drivers – why move to the cloud?
This leading provider of medical devices needed to adopt a cloud-first strategy that allowed their business to collaborate with a vast global partnership ecosystem including Microsoft, Zscaler, SAP Exertum, Cegeka, Spot IT, and Tam Tam Consulting. Additionally, their move to SAP on Azure was a catalyst in moving to the cloud.
With 25,000 employees globally, and 1,500 employees in EMEA, this Tier 1 company chose Colt to move to a cloud-based ecosystem, which therefore also allowed improved productivity and global collaboration across their business.
