Day-one readiness of new starters

No matter where they're located

Off to a flying start

For many, the first day of a new job is a thrilling mix of nerves, excitement, and anticipation. Having the right IT equipment in place and ready to go from hour one goes a long way toward making this special day run smoothly.

Ensuring a new starter is online and productive from the beginning, wherever they are, directly impacts bottom line profitability, enriches company reputation, and reinforces employee satisfaction. Global organizations face the herculean task of transforming end-user device provisioning systems to cope with remote working and ensure your end users remain motivated and productive – no matter where they're located.

As a result, more organizations are evaluating how their ecosystems of IT suppliers and emerging technologies can provide reliable, efficient, and high-quality end-user device provisioning for the newest members of their workforces.

The first step is engaging your solutions provider to handle logistics, stock your inventory, and ship directly to employees' homes.

Traditional and modern device configuration

SHI works with many organizations that prefer to have technicians physically configure devices for new users. Devices are imaged, configured, and packaged in SHI’s global network of integration centers, alleviating customers' hardware storage, configuration, and shipping logistics.

We also work with large organizations to modernize their end-user device provisioning with Zero Touch X technology. Instead of physically setting up the device, our hands-off approach replicates a mobile device model in which the end user simply powers on the device and follows a few easy prompts. When complete, our cloud-based solution delivers a customized end-user experience, including imaging, VPN configuration, and security certificates.

Our specialists can help you leverage automated tools like chatbots to help facilitate new-starter setup conversations. A bot can handle many of the typical new-starter questions that would otherwise be routed to IT, freeing up your helpdesk and ensuring your new employee is set up for success from the start.
