- Increase in adoption of collaboration tools and cloud-based workplace technologies during COVID. Workplace collaboration platform providers offered some of their services complimentary.
- Increase in demand for digital workplace services from Healthcare, and Retail industries as telehealth and online sales gained significant boost during COVID.
- Digital workplace services revenue is spread across different industries with Manufacturing (17%), High-tech (13%) and Retail (11%) as the top three sectors.
- Outcome-based models and experience level agreements (XLAs) gain traction (29% of the total digital workplace services engagements in March 2020).
Avasant's Research Leader, Shwetank Saini, added, "Progressive organizations that already embraced the idea of digital workplaces, were able to respond better to the pandemic, while those who were behind the curve faced many challenges responding to these challenging times. As businesses gradually move forward, they need to evaluate where they are in the maturity curve. Focus should be on adopting cloud-based models, in conjunction with other technologies to enable better ways of working."
