Quick Insights: End User Devices Per Employee 

Tue May 22, 2018 03:28 PM

 

This report is part of a series. See full collection of Quick Insights.

 

Actions

  1. Discuss end user device (EUD) results with business unit or location heads. Determine why some BUs and locations have relatively high number of devices per employee. Decide if targeting a lower number (and by when) is an appropriate step.
  2. When cost model is complete, add cost to this report.
  3. If End User Devices.Consumer (name of employee) is available, add to this report—this will improve estimates of number of devices per business unit and location.
  4. If per-product satisfaction survey data available, add to this report—help determine which end user device products to retire.
