Since 2020, following the COVID-19 pandemic, the implementation of new technologies has taken center stage in many companies. Technology has come to the aid of business, and this trend runs so deeply that often it's hard to remember what the business world was like before.
Connectivity has allowed us to advertise our businesses online; e-commerce has shortened distances. Today we can exchange both goods and services with companies and individuals anywhere in the world. Technology also allows for 24/7 customer service.
It's hard to imagine what businesses were like before the internet; their reach was limited compared to today.
This growth in online commerce, coupled with the development of the Internet of Things, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence, has led to a paradigm shift in many companies.
Technological solutions also apply in the realm of security. These allow for automated access and the ability to check spaces remotely.
The business world in the pandemic has been profoundly impacted by the changes that have taken place since early 2020. Technological solutions help your business avoid losses and protect employee health.
How can you find the right technology solutions for your business?
However, a technological solution is only a solution if it solves a problem. With so many options on the market, you need to know how to choose the right one for your business. There are many factors that play into this.
Identify the problem and its causes
Before you look for a technological solution, you should identify the problem you want to solve. Detailed analysis can also establish what the causes of the problem are.
Let's say, for example, that because of the pandemic you are faced with the problem of how to avoid COVID-19 infections. The obvious cause is the virus. But the fact that people move around and come into contact is another cause. What comes next, then?
Establish priorities
Once you have identified the problem and determined its causes, you can get to work. As you look for technological solutions, you will of course find many options and you need to have your priorities clear.
Budget, ease of learning, scalability, and connectivity are important considerations when choosing software. But more often than not, cost is the most important factor.
Once you have established your priorities for IT solutions, you can move on to the next step: choosing the best option.
Choose technology solutions that meet your needs
When you are ready to choose among available technology solutions, it is important to meet with the provider. Ask as many questions as you need to be sure that it's a good fit for your business.
Sometimes the rush to solve a problem can make you choose the first thing you find, but make sure you shop around until you find one that fits your budget, your business, and your future plans.
IT solutions for shared workspaces
Some frequent problems in personnel management are knowing where employees are and ensuring that occupancy limits for employee safety are followed.
Today there are technological solutions that allow for contact tracing and real-time knowledge of who is where in the office. This tool is called contact tracing.
This tool can locate people using mobile devices or chip cards that are read by receivers in the office, based on geolocation.
This technology originated with tracking shipments in transit. It generates reports that let you know who was in the same space and generate alerts if necessary, in case of a positive COVID-19 test.
Technological solutions allow you to automate the management of shared spaces and know where staff are in real time.
There are also IT solutions that allow you to assign workstations or meeting rooms to individuals or groups of employees. These tools can also alert the cleaning team to clean areas no longer in use.
