Undoubtedly, COVID- 19 pandemic outbreak has become a global concern for the organizations and have put them into a significant risk. Organizations are still in fear whether this risk is going to stay when the COVID-19 scare is over?
To defeat this situation, companies have to proactively take all the measures to preserve employee well-being and business continuity during COVID-19…
Understanding the critical implications of COVID-19 for ensuring the well-being of employees and business continuity in future, Xicom Technologies has already taken all necessary measures to minimize the impact of the pandemic and enabled “Work From Home” facility to their staff and crucial departments.
Adhering to Government instructions and following the social distancing, our staff, including IT, Sales team, Development Team, Testers, Project Management team and other members from other upper departments, are working remotely. Our team is following the same work ethics and working hard to stay committed to our promises and quality assurance services, for which we are known for.
Many of you are wondering how the tech industry is ensuring business continuity in the times of coronavirus? How does our team stay connected while working remotely? Will it impact the project deliveries or quality of the project?
Being a certified app development company, we already had corporate protocols in place which allow us to reimagine the new business working environments for all departments without any hassle.
Our team is working with highly encrypted communication tools (Pidgin), teamwork collaboration tools (Asana), uninterrupted internet connection, and other working platforms. These tools help in creating in-office environments at home and allow them to stay connected with other team members and our clients as we usually do.
To safeguard the health of our employees and community, Xicom has permitted their team to do work from home by providing them with all hardware and software tools that they need to manage their projects smoothly and timely. To create a fine-work balance and avoid such technical issues, our network team is closely working with our staff and provides proper training to access tools to avoid hampering employee productivity.
Since our client’s data security is our priority; therefore, to maintain the safety of the valuable data and prevent cybersecurity threats, Xicom has provided VPN configured devices to their teams.
The teams which are working on complex and more significant projects are provided with specially configured desktops that allow our engineers to put their best effort even at home and full-fill the need of the clients on-time, as they always do.
For meeting project quality commitments and on-time deliveries, our team is using multiple communication channels and tools to meet project timelines and ensure seamless communication with clients.
Using Asana For Project Management: As-usual, our entire team from higher management to development team, are using Asana for project allocation to keep track of project completion. Despite working from home, we are using this incredible tool for task management across all the teams and departments.
Pidgin for Hassle-Free Communication With Team: Pidgin is a versatile chat program that can run on multiple operating systems including Windows, Linux and others and allow smooth transfer of files. Therefore, our employees are using Pidgin to stay connected and working together as a team, even at different locations.
Skype For Uninterrupted Communication With Clients: To ensure business continuity in times of coronavirus, our project managers are following the same communication protocol with clients and often provide project updates with their regular weekly skype calls.
Working With Same Time Shifts: Many enterprises are clueless about how businesses are working during the COVID-19 Period? However, for clear, transparent and timely communication, Xicom’s entire team is working remotely at the same time shift as they did earlier.
As we are privileged to be a trusted mobile app development company to thousands of clients worldwide, therefore, we are taking all necessary measures to provide full support and high level of services as they expect from us. And our team will promise you to be at their best during this severe working scenario and ensure quality services.
