The connected workplace..

When everything works together, your organisation performs better.

The connected workplace is Bechtle’s vision for a modern IT environment. It brings together workspace, networking, IT security, data centre and cloud, software, and services in a connected ecosystem where every component reinforces the others. Carefully designed, implemented at the right time, and aligned with what your organisation needs today. Most organisations don’t need more technology. They need technology that works together seamlessly, supports their people and processes, and delivers value when it matters most.

No IT decision exists in isolation.

A new workplace solution affects your network, while cloud decisions have implications for security and management. New software only delivers value when employees can use it effectively and the underlying infrastructure is ready to support it. Yet many organisations still approach these decisions separately.

The result? Greater complexity, less visibility, and systems that may work perfectly well on their own but never quite come together as a coherent whole. A connected workplace takes a different approach, bringing together technologies, people, processes, and governance. The result is a working environment that supports employees, helps IT stay in control, and gives the organisation the flexibility to adapt when circumstances change.

Five domains.
One connected workplace.

A connected workplace is not created by relying on a single IT provider or adopting every new technology that comes along. It starts with making decisions that work together and reinforce one another. That’s why Bechtle focuses on five closely connected IT domains.

Workspace.

This is where employees experience IT every day. A well-designed workspace brings together devices, applications, collaboration, and management, helping employees work effectively while giving IT the visibility it needs.

Networking.

A connected workplace depends on a reliable network. Networking enables employees, devices, applications, and data to communicate securely and reliably, whether in the office, on site, or on the move.

IT security.

Security is not a separate component of the connected workplace—it runs through every part of it. From identities and devices to networks, applications, and data. Bechtle’s Security Compass focuses on seven core areas of security.

Hybrid data centre.

Every digital workplace relies on infrastructure that remains available, scalable, and manageable. Together, the data centre and cloud environments provide the foundation that keeps applications running, data accessible, and the organisation moving forward.

Software.

Software connects people with information, processes, and one another. The right software makes the connected workplace more productive and more effective, provided applications are integrated properly, managed consistently, and aligned with the wider IT landscape.

Bechtle Beat – Innovation only delivers value
when the timing is right.

You can invest in the best data centre or security solution available and still struggle to move forward. Perhaps the infrastructure isn’t ready for the next step, the expertise needed to manage the solution effectively isn’t yet in place, or the technology itself is mature but not the right fit for where your organisation is today.

That’s why Bechtle looks beyond technical possibilities to focus on when a development will deliver real value. Sometimes it’s enough to keep an eye on a trend. Sometimes the next step is to explore and test. And sometimes the conditions are right to implement an innovation or scale it more broadly. We call that rhythm the Bechtle Beat.

Listen to the Hip or Happening? podcast

In Hip or Happening?, host Tom Jessen, known for his podcast with Maarten van Rossem, speaks with industry experts and forward thinkers about which innovations are worth paying attention to today and which are better left on hold for now. Which developments are generating attention, and which are already proving their value? More importantly, when does innovation start making a meaningful impact on your organisation? Find out in our podcast series.

The connected
workplace in practice.

A compelling IT strategy may look good on paper, but its real value lies in the results it delivers. That’s why we let our customers share their own experiences of working with Bechtle to create IT environments that support their organisation, empower their employees, and help achieve their ambitions.

With many IT providers, involvement ends once the contract is signed, but the Bechtle team kept checking in even after implementation. That level of service made all the difference in this project.

We’ve been working with Bechtle since 2014. Over the years, the focus of our partnership has evolved to include a broader range of services. As a department, we want to take on more of a leadership role.

Steven Koeken, IT Administrator at Avans University of Applied Sciences

Bechtle’s data centre solution has given us a significant performance boost. At Van Mossel, data drives everything we do and being able to translate IT improvements directly into business results makes all the difference.

Knowing when to take the next step.

IT leaders are constantly confronted with new developments. The challenge is not simply deciding whether a technology is interesting, but understanding what your organisation should do with it right now. Is it something to watch, test, prepare for, or scale further? Together, we assess where a development stands, what it means for your organisation, and when the time is right to act.

Not every innovation needs to become part of your connected workplace straight away. Real value emerges when technology aligns with your people, processes, and existing IT landscape. Keeping you in control of your connected workplace.
