Paris, 1 February 2017 - Atos, a leader in digital transformation, today announces that it has been positioned by Gartner as a Leader for European Managed Workplace Services (MWS) 1, based on its ability to execute and completeness of vision.

The report evaluates the abilities of 15 service providers to deliver managed workplace services across Europe - including "traditional end-user outsourcing (EUO), as well as new digital workplace services to provide a cloud-first, automated and integrated support to end users."

According to the report, "Leaders deliver their service solutions skillfully, have a clear vision of the direction of the service market, and are actively building and improving their competencies to sustain their leadership positions. The Leaders quadrant indicates the direction of the MWS market. However, most digital workplace offerings still have low adoption rates. Leaders have demonstrated their experience in delivering MWS and understand the requirements to successfully deliver these services. They have proved their Ability to Execute and their strategic visions."

"Digital Workplace is one of 4 strategic digital pillars of growth for Atos as we continue to help our customers transform their digital experience by providing a more innovative workplace. In today's modern world, anytime and anyplace communication and collaboration is not only the norm, but also the expectation for the end user. Our continued investment is changing the way people access applications, data and help, improving end user productivity and user experiences, whilst reducing cost and ensuring security and compliance at all times. Our investment in Unified Communications & Collaboration with Unify, as well as key areas of the digital workplace, including unified management, automation, journey analytics & cognitive technologies, combined with our Atos end to end capabilities, are central to our goal of being the outright leader in Managed Workplace Services", says Eric Grall, EVP Atos Infrastructure & Data Management.
