Munich, January 23, 2019 – Leading analyst firm Gartner has recognized Fujitsu as a Leader in its latest Magic Quadrant for Managed Workplace Services, Europe1 for the third consecutive time2. Fujitsu was also positioned highest overall among vendors for its ability to execute.
In its Magic Quadrant report, Gartner identifies that innovative Managed Workplace Services give organizations a competitive edge, with the workplace as the front line of digital change and employee engagement. Gartner says: “With the workplace as the front line of digital change and employee engagement, innovative managed workplace services give organizations a competitive edge.”
Fujitsu maintains a strategic approach to Managed Workplace Services, recognizing that the focus has shifted to transformation of the workplace as a key enabler of digital capabilities, and away from straightforward cost reduction. As businesses transform in this digital era, they aim to enhance their workers’ ability to realize their own potential and add value. Increasingly, Fujitsu believes this demands the ability of providers to offer solutions and devices that accommodate the blurring of personal and work life, and employees’ resulting expectations of flexibility and convenience.
Fujitsu believes that unlocking digital potential requires the skills of a managed services vendor that can deliver context-aware services, provided via a simple, automated digital user experience. This seamless access to the right services at the right location, delivered at the right time, in a way that users want, ensures workers gain access to the right data and the functionality they need to be effective.
In creating its latest Magic Quadrant for Managed Workplace Services, Europe1, published on January 14, 2019 by analysts David Groombridge, Claudio Da Rold and Federica Troni, Gartner evaluated 16 leading Managed Workplace Services providers in Europe – whose offerings include digital workplace services, such as service desk and outsourcing services that provide a cloud-first, automated and integrated support to end users.
Martin Smithen, Head of Digital Workplace Services offerings at Fujitsu EMEIA, says: “The Fujitsu Managed Workplace Services portfolio is focused on enabling organizations to provide a joined-up, positive experience for their employees, allowing them to effectively leverage applications and data in simple and efficient ways. And we believe that Gartner’s recognition underlines our strong focus on skillful service delivery, a clear market vision, and ongoing, active efforts to build and improve our competencies.
“We achieve this through our human centric approach, which focuses on improving the end user experience with connected services,” continues Smithen. “We believe our positioning in this Gartner report underlines how this approach is resonating with our customers – they have made their voices heard. We are very thankful for the feedback they have provided, as we feel their opinions contribute significantly to Gartner’s positioning of Fujitsu.”
