from their mobile investments. Today’s lack of visibility into enterprise mobile’s transformative capabilities and results can be expected to create innovation in devices, operating system and management platforms. As a result, rapid innovation will layer on more complexity to an already difficult-to-manage mobile landscape.
Second, now that enterprises have seen mobile’s ability to offer strategic business advantages, today’s pace of mobile change and increasing complexity can be expected to accelerate. Market leaders now acknowledge the value of mobile initiatives to transform enterprises. As mobile begins to touch every operational facet of the enterprise, the demand for sophisticated mobile expertise quickly outpaces the ability of internal IT teams, already stretching to maintain business-critical systems, to meet scale and support requirements. Working against a backdrop of increasing complexity, enterprises frequently seek out an expert MMS provider with deep technical knowledge of devices, planning and deployment strategies, "management platforms" and "24x7x365 support" Collaborating with an MMS provider delegates responsibility to a turnkey mobile specialist, freeing internal IT teams to focus on business-critical technical initiatives.
In the next few weeks, Stratix will publish a series of best practices-based information on how a MMS provider can solve one of mobile’s toughest challenges – the need to support mobile users 24x7x365, while lowering mobile’s total cost of ownership. In addition, Stratix will share proven ways to provision and deploy mobility, while meeting users’ high expectations for always on connectivity. Finally, Stratix will conclude with an explanation of how a well-designed Mobile Center of Excellence can help market-leading enterprises transcend siloed line-of-business mobile projects with an enterprise-wide mobile strategy and execution plan.
