The workplace of the future at Visana

The Visana Group is one of the largest health and accident insurers in Switzerland and insures private and corporate customers. As the service leader among Swiss providers, Visana is a service-oriented, reliable partner for its customers with high quality standards and a comprehensive range of services.

In order to meet this requirement, Visana is dependent on a modern workplace for its employees that meets today's demands and possibilities.

atrete's focus is to support companies in the conceptual design of the future digital workplace and to accompany its introduction. Visana focused on the needs of future business communication - Business goes UCC - and the requirements of modern working models, such as mobile working.

The right workplace solution for Visana employees

"The future workplace is first and foremost also an opportunity for Visana to increase efficiency, more satisfied employees and thus an improved competitiveness" was the credo of the task definition. At the same time, Visana was faced with the task of renewing the existing workplace infrastructure (PC fleet and Windows upgrade, printers, telephony, network). 

Standardization as a solution

In a joint team under the leadership of atrete, the concrete requirements of the different user groups were recorded and compared with the solution variants - the winner: "Convertible only". With this approach, Visana secures advantages in terms of operation, work efficiency and investment protection for the future workplace, among other things. This decision was supported by design and sizing clarifications for the network connections per location class. 

"With atrete we had a partner who supported us with the necessary expertise and role competence in the design and roll-out of the new Visana workplace throughout the entire project duration".

Christoph Lanz, Head of Information and Infrastructure Management. 

After the freestyle, the architecture and the roll-out as duty

Together with atrete, Visana organized the architecture decision for the future digital workplace, coordinated the procurement and roll-out for the future convertibles. The procurement was carried out by means of an invitation to tender that was comprehensible for all parties involved. The "decommissioning", i.e. the professional and security-appropriate disposal of the existing PCs during the roll-out, could also be arranged at interesting conditions. The support of atrete was decisive for all these tasks.
