Case Study: Textron achieves improved governance, collaboration, and storage savings with Microsoft Corporation OneDrive and FastTrack

Aviation giant Textron executes the perfect takeoff with cloud-based file storage and sharing solution

Textron, a global aviation and industrial corporation, needed a more cost-effective, secure, and better-governed cloud file storage and sharing solution for its technical teams. Its existing third-party platform had rising licensing costs, limited integration with Microsoft tools, and insufficient governance, so Textron turned to Microsoft Corporation and Microsoft OneDrive with FastTrack for Office 365.

Microsoft Corporation helped Textron migrate 1,000 users to OneDrive in less than four weeks through a phased rollout, training hub, and close collaboration with IT and business units. The result was smoother collaboration, stronger access control and visibility, better mobile access, reduced PC storage use, and significant savings in license fees.
