These organizations are using new technologies more frequently to allow employees to remain connected to the applications that allow them to work more effectively. With fewer employees stationed at fixed locations, the need for reliable, dynamic and virtualized engagement is crucial. To meet the needs of this growing trend, organizations must contemplate strategies and solutions that take into account a wide range of user behaviors and technology requirements, including the use of mobile devices.

The Need for Mobile Within Business Portfolio Management (BPM)

More and more services, product management and IT professionals rely on mobile solutions to remain connected to their professional service automation  (PSA) applications while they are away from their desks.  To meet the needs of this growing trend, organizations are increasingly making use of mobile technology devices including smartphones and tablets.  With fewer employees stationed at fixed locations, reliable remote access to an organization’s PSA and PPM solutions has become imperative. Users can connect to the Changepoint Mobile Client via their iPhone or BlackBerry, providing users on-demand access to the data, tasks and approval-rights they require. Mobile access to Changepoint PSA and PPM solutions provide organizations with the ability to properly manage their applications across the enterprise.

Flexible Connectivity

More organizations are encouraging their services, IT and product portfolio management  staff to utilize their own mobile devices at work.  Changepoint mobile relies on the power of web browser technology to enable connectivity and does not require the installation of a native application. Changepoint users seeking mobile access can use multiple devices, including personal hardware, to remain connected to the data, tools and processes they require to carry out their duties.
