The ambiguities and confusions around mobility solutions, products and policies around mobility trends are many. The questions range from where to start from to how to do it to deploying the solution.
The ambiguities exist around policies. With BYOD being the mandate, convincing the top management about security, formulating policy creates certain degree of confusion. While the BYOD strategy can offer benefits including improved productivity and cost savings, for instance, it can also open the door to risks to corporate data security and protection.
Here is a checklist
- The first and most crucial step is to look at how enterprise mobility fits in within the overall strategic direction and define the core reasons for adoption
- Look at the current state of business and assess Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), upfront investment for BYOD and ongoing operating costs
- Calculate the potential savings and generate an estimated ROI
- Assess the compatibility of apps across various platforms. For example, may be new screens have to be developed to fit into the screen. Portals should be made reactive to auto fit into the screen
- Plan to serve information contextually to enable faster decision
- Develop a high degree of user friendly applications
- Understand the short to mid-term targets in terms of number of apps, downloads, end users etc.
- Comprehend the business objectives behind mobility- -customer service, operational efficiency improvement, revenue/profitability enhancement, lead generation etc
