Making it your platform today
• The risk of XaaS is being vanilla
• Scale, Boutique, On-Prem, Hybrid
• Where is your office?
• Don’t be limited to your services
• Point of aggregation
• Think beyond technology
• IoT, Big Data, AI – arriving at the speed of light

• Subscription – all costs built in, Security and DR/BC, Additional apps – expenses, travel booking
• Service menu, automation & self service
• All HR contracts, legal forms etc for “working from home”
• Differentiating Value Prop – for the returning Mum
• Managed service to make home office “baby” safe and offer quality home broadband & wifi
• Remote training & “help”
• Your processes & business IP to make things “easy” e.g. Sharepoint workflows
