Actions
- 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.
- When cost model is complete, add cost to this report.
- 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.
- If per-product satisfaction survey data available, add to this report—help determine which end user device products to retire.
