Four good reasons for DLM
Full transparency – no shadow IT
Full transparency without shadow IT thanks to consistent inventory management across the entire company. The end device process is end-to-end GDPR-compliant, allowing company policies to be implemented quickly and securely.
Simple and cost-effective
Simple and cost-effective, DLM offers full transparency across the entire end device fleet. It also enables equipment to be customised for individual employees. It is easy to use and operate.
Efficient processes
Automated ordering and commissioning, customised accessories, security settings, user profiles and applications – all of this remains unchanged even during replacement and repair.
Convenient ordering on your own
Full transparency without shadow IT thanks to consistent inventory management across the entire company. The end device process is end-to-end GDPR-compliant, allowing company policies to be implemented quickly and securely.
Maximum device transparency at predictable costs
Terminal procurement – simple and flexible
The DLM platform allows for individualised single orders of pre-assembled devices. Because all inventory data is stored in the system, cost centre allocation is also automatic. The devices can be shipped individually to homes – storage at the company is no longer necessary.
- Individualised single orders are possible.
- Pre-assembly of devices with accessories is possible
- Automatic cost centre allocation – as stored in the system
- Individual home delivery possible
- No in-house warehousing
Self-service management – individual and convenient
The DLM platform uses single sign-on to display the approved end devices and accessories. The entire team can order end devices themselves at company rates. Workplace-specific equipment is added automatically, and security profiles and applications are installed over the air.
- Employees can see the devices and accessories that have been approved for them directly on the DLM platform (single sign-on).
- Independent order
- Company terms and conditions also apply to individual orders
- All operational information relevant to the ordering process is automatically added by the DLM (workstation-specific equipment).
- Delivery to desired address
- Unpack, switch on, ready to use: company-specific
- Security profiles and applications are installed over the air.
- Repair and GDPR-compliant return of devices is initiated and documented via DLM.
System consistency – transparent and secure
DLM consolidates information, provides order data and enables management of the end device inventory. Transparent processes require less time. The effort involved in adding and removing devices is reduced. And permanent inventory reconciliation ensures 100% GDPR compliance.
- DLM brings together the various pieces of information and data
- Provision of order data
- Management of EC inventory via DLM
- Transparent processes and less time/tools required for EC administration
- Adding/removing EC can be done much faster automatically
- Commercial and technical inventory
data in one system - Permanent inventory reconciliation including deletion certificates and disposal
records for 100% GDPR compliance
eSIM management – automated individuality
Previously, SIM cards had to be inserted manually. DLM consolidates all information and data for each device on a specific eSIM. When replacing or onboarding devices, migration is completed quickly. With DLM, all SIM cards/processes can be digitised and centrally activated or deactivated.
- Quick replacement of SIM and MultiSIM cards
- Easy activation of connectivity by the user
- Rapid migration to eSIM when changing
devices or onboarding - Digitisation of all SIM cards/processes
via DLM - Central activation of cards via the platform
- Easy device return by
deactivating the eSIM profile
