We’re entering a new age of the mobile experience, as smart devices and business productivity tools change how we work, communicate, sell, and buy. But workers in the Automotive industry around the globe now need to access, make decisions, and take action on sensor-and-device-generated mission-critical enterprise data from wherever they are.

The buzz: “Connectivity is productivity” -Huffington Post 021215. While we as consumers spend more time on mobile devices than on traditional computing devices, the transformative power of mobile has not fully reached the workplace. Beyond getting email, alerts and chat on a phone, workers across industries around the globe cannot access mission-critical enterprise data, make decisions or take action from any location on the devices they love. Why not? Underlying business systems are not linked through a digital core to provide a seamless end user experience, resulting in wasted time and added complexity. The experts speak.
