HCL Tech, Intel launch CoE for digital workplace offerings

HCL Technologies (HCL) and Intel have launched a centre of excellence (CoE) to accelerate the creation and adoption of industry-tailored digital workplace (DWP) offerings.  

HCL and Intel have a long partnership where drawing on each other’s strengths, and using cutting-edge technologies, the companies have helped enterprises across industries accelerate their digital transformation journeys.  

“This extended collaboration is a demonstration of our complementary capabilities to deliver a hybrid work experience in a secure, experiential, and reliable way to our customers,” said, Rakshit Ghura, Senior Vice President, Digital Workplace Business Unit, HCL Technologies.  

In other words, equipped with cutting-edge technologies and experts, the CoE will leverage HCL’s digital workplace solutions and Intel’s technology portfolio to co-create solutions that enable seamless, connected and secure hybrid workplaces. It will also act as a hub to test and validate new digital technology platform solutions and architectures to meet the workload-intensive demands of enterprises in a hybrid workplace environment, HCL said in a statement.  

Santhosh Viswanathan, Managing Director of Sales, Marketing and Communications Group, Intel India, said that the CoE will combines HCL’s best-in-class digital workplace solutions and services with Intel’s Client Computing Technologies such as the Intel vPro Platform and add immense business and technology value to enterprises by catering to their rapidly evolving digital transformation requirements.   

The CoE can also add immense business and technology value to enterprises by catering to their rapidly evolving digital transformation requirements. It also enables HCL to leverage the current roadmap of technologies and adopt future technologies of Intel and bolster its competitive edge as a systems integration solutions provider.  

In January 2022, HCL and Intel came up with a new business unit to focus on increasing the creation and adoption of state-of-the-art technologies while developing an accelerated technology roadmap for enterprises on cloud, end-user computing, network and edge, and AI.
