We believe powerful digital infrastructure can transform your business
We believe a powerful digital infrastructure can transform the way business and organizations operate. From the classroom to the boardroom and everywhere in between, technology is inspiring new ideas and driving seamless experiences. Join us as we turn the promise of technology into digital progress together.
Streaming video. Big data. Connected campuses. IoT. The common thread: These advances in technology have opened doors to improve human lives in unimaginable ways. These opportunities are everywhere, from the boardroom to the classroom, thanks to a digital infrastructure that makes it’s capable of turning every industry upside down, in a good way.
We’re celebrating those who are using a digital infrastructure that helps deliver #digitalprogress across industries.
It’s the new tech you’re using to create a better patient experience. It’s the new managed WiFi service you’ve implemented to give hotel guests what they expect: Internet access anywhere. It’s all of that and more. We encourage you to take to social media and share your digital progress. Use the hashtag #digitalprogress and join the conversation with us.
But first, why do we care? Because we’re helping organizations create and evolve the digital infrastructure needed for all this digital progress. More importantly, though, here’s why you should care—and here’s what is changing. Better digital infrastructure creates better client experiences. Patients who can leave hospitals without the stress-inducing pound of paperwork to complete. Students can stream educational videos in the classroom without wasting time hunting for WiFi signals. Hotel guests can relax by the pool without disconnecting their smartphones from the Internet.
It’s a cultural change that challenges the status quo, giving organizations the time to experiment often, and sometimes walk away from a long-standing business practice that has been in place for decades, in favor of new practices that make the lives of their clients better.
As lofty as these achievements are, there is another underlying business reason for why you should put an importance on improving a digital infrastructure. A better bottom line. Recent studies back this reason up, time and again. A recent study from the MIT Center for Digital Business, for example, found companies that embrace digital progress are “26% more profitable than their average industry competitors and enjoy a 12% higher market valuation.” The same study shows that this leads to a “30% increase in customer revenue.”
Although digital progress varies based on a company’s applications and the culture surrounding it, many common themes exist that business and technology leaders consider when building a roadmap. A whitepaper from Cognizant lists the customer experience, organizational integration, digital products and services, and operations as the four prominent stages of focus. Tying in predictive models and big data analysis can customize sales projections based on history and can help find the sweet spot in every step of the customer experience lifecycle—something that wouldn’t exist without an advanced digital framework.
IT is no longer managing server rooms, data centers or giant software packages. It’s about the people and the solutions behind what it is you’re out to accomplish. We’re building an infrastructure that can both handle and integrate your organization’s needs in a seamless fashion. It’s helping businesses deploy their digital progress faster. For example, almost of half of healthcare organizations said in a recent HIMSS survey that having an available fiber connection made it easy to deploy new health delivery models. Added bonus: This improves their patient experience. That’s just one of the many ways a new digital infrastructure is changing how digital progress is possible.
The reach and utility of your technology depends on the expertise of how it’s applied. Your network and IT investments should support your strategic objectives, ensuring optimal choice, value, control and return on your digital investment. For example, every fiber-lit building we connect lays the foundation to a network of human progress, opening opportunity for every enterprise nationwide.
