Case Study: PwC achieves successful Windows 10 migration and centralized global IT with Apptimized AppPackaging Factory

PwC saves seven figures and hits 96% UAT pass rate with Apptimized

PwC faced the challenge of centralizing its IT estate for all 157 global member firms during a mandatory Windows 10 migration. A key component of this project was ensuring all line of business applications conformed to corporate standards and functioned on the new OS, requiring a global application packaging capability. To meet this need, PwC partnered with vendor Apptimized to utilize its AppPackaging Factory service.

Apptimized's cloud-based AppPackaging Factory service provided PwC with a custom Application Quality Assurance process, support for the global Windows 10 rollout touching over 230,000 endpoints, and a long-term solution for ongoing updates. The results included an estimated seven-figure savings globally due to a fixed unit price and pay-as-you-go model, which eliminated financial risk. Apptimized also delivered high quality with average turnaround times under five days and a UAT pass rate of over 96 percent, enabling a successful migration to a centralized IT service.
