UBS re-defines the workplace and consolidates seven offices into single London campus
More agile working
When UBS opened a new flagship office it needed to relocate approximately 6,000 employees from seven sites to the new building under tight timescales. To deliver greater agility to users, it decided to transform its workplace IT at the same time.

Computacenter was flexible, proactive and pragmatic, ensuring that aggressive timescales were achieved without any loss of productivity
