Case Study: Leading Manufacturing Company boosts productivity with Zones and Lenovo PC refresh

Offering a global company a fresh take on a mobile PC refresh

Leading Manufacturing Company, a global display technology manufacturer, needed to refresh mobile PCs across its U.S. headquarters to support very different user needs across engineering, sales, support, and executive teams. When its incumbent technology supplier became unresponsive, the company turned to Zones, Inc. for help selecting a single PC brand and defining a deployment approach that could handle diverse workloads while keeping procurement under control.

Zones, Inc. provided evaluation units from multiple vendors and ultimately helped the customer standardize on Lenovo devices, including ThinkPad P50 mobile workstations, ThinkPad T460/T560 laptops, and ThinkPad X260/X1 Carbon systems. Zones, Inc. also built a custom password-protected ZonesConnect web portal to streamline ordering and deployment. The result was increased productivity, reduced procurement and deployment activity, and a more satisfied workforce.
