'Workplace of the Future' Global Initiative

  • APAC (17 countries): 13,250 notebooks, 3,500 PCs
  • Americas (10 countries): 4,000 notebooks, 2,700 PCs

The SK Tes team embedded itself at the client campus with a 10-person team and established regional control towers in the US, Singapore, and Germany to manage a year-long transformation. A site-readiness algorithm and weekly rollout plan ensured real-time tactical response across diverse countries and time zones. A traffic-light quality system used by the client showed SK Tes maintained a "green light" and 99% customer satisfaction throughout the project, resulting in a "Best Vendor for the IT Sector" award.
