Pawa IT Solutions provided both rapid deployment support as well as change management support that allowed the SKLD staff to be onboarded and ramped onto Google Workspace in less than 2 weeks, without any data loss and downtime.

The Challenge

Embarking on expansion to four strategic business units in Retail, Wholesale, Humanitarian Aid Supply and Garment Production, SKLD faced challenges related to communication and collaboration for its workforce.  SKLD needed to modernize its email and communication platform to support its transformation strategy. The existing legacy platform was outdated and had security, capacity and reliability challenges.

The Solution

SKLD adopted Google Workspace for its security and simplicity. Working with PawaIT Solutions, a Google Cloud Partner, the SKLD ICT team rapidly deployed and onboarded all its staff in less than 2 weeks! The uptake was swift and positive. Pawa IT enabled the SKLD staff to be onboarded and ramped onto Google Workspace in less than 2 weeks without any data loss and downtime.

Retail Transformation with Google Cloud

SKLD was able to improve the efficiency of its retail operations. Thanks to Pawa IT Solution’s free training, the SKLD team was equipped with skills that can be used to ensure collaboration and productivity during the digital retail transformation with Google Cloud.

Moving Ahead

SKLD looks towards reviewing and considering the adoption of Google Cloud Platform, for its next phase in modernizing its infrastructure that supports its eCommerce.
