It’s
hard to believe April is already over and we’re into May with its additional
Coronation bank holiday so let’s hope the sun shines! This month, as we
continue to face high costs and a tight labour market, we take a look at how your
technology might be able to help you do more with less.

Following the pandemic’s forced shift to remote working, for
many this has become a permanent change to their working lives. However, many
firms have been left with a mixture of pre- and post-pandemic models that could
be incurring some unnecessary costs, especially important in an inflationary environment.
Areas to consider include:
- Devices – does your team
have the right equipment to effectively perform? Have you considered leasing
rather than buying?
- Telecoms – would a Microsoft
Teams phone system be better than your desk phones?
- Cloud services – when did you last
audit your cloud services and associated costs? Do you still need all these
services or are there better plans available?
- Working from home – do staff have a docking
station with large monitor and a fast and secure internet connection?
