Digital technologies have undergone a radical transformation. The contemporary workplace is no longer a physical location where we clock in from 9 to 5. Instead, we now anticipate the ability to work remotely from any location, at any time, and on the device of our choice.

Technology continues to reshape and revolutionize how we live and work: Automation, IoT, intelligent systems, and seamless, cross-platform cloud solutions enhance the user experience. Technology companies must exert more effort than ever to offer support and solutions.

Always Innovating

International organizations face an additional challenge: they must find cost-effective ways to procure services at scale while delivering services tailored to the local context. To operate most effectively, IT systems must be crafted with a thorough understanding of local preferences, regulations, and cultures.

To prosper in today’s fiercely competitive and virtual business landscape, organizations must be nimble, operationally efficient, inventive, and laser-focused on meeting customers’ needs – all while supporting their staff.

Global service providers must retain the kind of local expertise and capability businesses have long depended on. This is why we established the Global Workspace Alliance (GWA).

High Expectations for the Global Digital Workplace

Connectis leads the way in technology, developing new solutions and partnerships to cater to and advise our global customers in their digital requirements. GWA was established in 2009 by the Getronics Group, the group we belong to, and has been central to our service offerings. We take pride in the fact that Gartner recognized the  GWA as the world’s first Alliance of IT Providers, and it has been a fixture in the Gartner Magic Quadrant since 2010.

The GWA is a single ecosystem providing a network of partnerships that spans the globe, enabling us to deliver hyper-local IT solutions at scale with a seamless experience for our customers, including consolidated billing. Together, we are continuously innovating to find new ways to deliver better, quicker, and more efficient services for our customers.

The GWA ensures that we can operate on a global scale while acting with a local touch – providing a tailored digital solution crafted around each business.

Partnership is in our DNA

Connectis as part of the Getronics Group is the founding and leading member of the Global Workspace Alliance (GWA™). This trademarked and unique service model harnesses the power of local partners to ensure that global customers receive consistent IT services and on-site support down to the last mile.

Today, the GWA represents a combined workforce of 38,000 field engineers, covering over 185 countries and jointly managing more than 10 million workspace assets. Customers experience fully integrated services with a single point of contact and a unified bill. Users are empowered to achieve their highest levels of performance by making technology work for them – anytime, anywhere.

A Partner that Thinks Global, Acts Local

Traditionally, IT businesses offer a one-size-fits-all solution – but in a rapidly changing world, companies need solutions tailored to their specific requirements. The GWA allows Connectis to collaborate with a global network of partners to create truly global solutions with a local focus.

Global Workspace Alliance, Your Global Partner

The GWA provides companies with the assurance that end-users have everything they need to excel. It offers a global framework that allows us to customize service offerings to local requirements. With unparalleled technological expertise, deep knowledge of local practices, and culture, the GWA establishes a flexible, adaptable, and focused delivery model.

GWA members adhere to common processes, standards, and methodologies to ensure seamless delivery across regions. By engaging with the Alliance, international organizations tap into an extended service network through a single point of contact.

We understand that businesses seek a unified solution, so GWA members adopt a structured and connected Global Service Delivery Model. This lays the groundwork for seamless planning, management, and delivery of services across geographical boundaries.

Uniquely, the GWA has cultivated a joint portfolio where we share both intellectual property and investments. These relationships mean clients can benefit from streamlined global contract management, efficient and uniform service provisioning, and a constant stream of innovative service offerings. The formal partnership allows us to adapt our offerings to align with your service requirements and support your business’s growth.

Customers can rest assured that GWA processes adhere to the established IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) service management framework. GWA members are ISO-certified, with a strong emphasis on ongoing service improvement and customer satisfaction.

The GWA Alliance operates under a Participation Charter, which sets out the principles and joint commitments for all partners. We have established clear terms and conditions for all customer engagements, specifying service levels for all clients, regardless of location or local delivery partner.
