Mitä Microsoft Partner of the Year merkitsee asiakkaillemme ja mitä AI-first tarkoittaa Vivictalle?
Nopeampi matka ideasta vaikutuksiin Vivictan rooli Microsoft-kumppanina on yhdistää asiakkaan liiketoimintatavoitteet, Microsoftin teknologia ja käytännön toteutusosaaminen. Kun tämä tehdään oikein, tulokset näkyvät nopeasti: Konkreettisina hyötyinä arjessa: automaatio vähentää manuaalista työtä, data tukee parempaa päätöksentekoa ja tekoäly sujuvoittaa prosesseja. Skaalautuvuutena ja tietoturvana: ratkaisut kestävät kasvun ja täyttävät vaativatkin turvallisuus- ja vaatimustenmukaisuusvaatimukset. Modernina IT-ympäristönä: vähemmän hajanaisuutta, enemmän yhteentoimivuutta – fokus pysyy tuloksissa, ei järjestelmäviidakossa. Yhteinen Frontier-strategia Microsoftin kanssa: etulinjasta tuotantoon Tehtävämme on varmistaa, että asiakkaamme pysyvät teknologioiden edelläkävijöinä , ja että me Vivictana olemme siellä eturintamassa . Tämä tarkoittaa kahta asiaa: Microsoftin teknologioiden edelläkävijyys kaikilla ratkaisualueilla: AI Business Solutions, Cloud and AI platforms ja Security – konkreettisina esimerkkeinä Agenttipohjainen tekoäly, Power Platform, pilvipohjaiset ERP‑ratkaisut, Azure OpenAI sekä modernit tietoturvaratkaisut Hallittu matka tuotantoon: selkeä polku kokeiluista käyttöönottoon, skaalaukseen ja jatkuvaan kehittämiseen. Meille “pilotista tuotantoon” ei ole iskulause. Viemme ratkaisut aidosti käyttöön hyödyntäen DevSecOps- ja MLOps-käytäntöjä sekä selkeitä hallintamalleja, jotta arvo realisoituu liiketoiminnassa. AI-first, secure by design AI-first tarkoittaa Vivictalle sitä, että tekoäly on luonteva osa ratkaisuja alusta alkaen – turvallisesti ja vastuullisesti. Hyödynnämme Microsoftin integroituja tietoturvakapasiteetteja ja tekoälyn suojaamiseen suunniteltuja ratkaisuja. Nopeus ja turvallisuus eivät ole vastakohtia, vaan kulkevat käsi kädessä. Agenttien aikakausi on täällä Rakennamme tekoälyagentteja osaksi liiketoimintaprosesseja: asiakaspalveluun, taloushallinnon rutiineihin ja kenttähuoltoon. Kun agentti ymmärtää kontekstin ja data pysyy hallinnassa, syntyy mitattavaa hyötyä – sekunteja ja euroja takaisin joka päivä. Yksi datapohja, monta käyttötapausta Panostamme vahvasti luotettavaan ja yhtenäiseen datapohjaan. Kun data on kunnossa, sitä voivat hyödyntää analytiikka, automaatio ja AI-agentit. Hyvät datan hallintakäytännöt ovat edellytys vaikuttaville tekoälyratkaisuille. Missä asiakas hyötyy heti? Parempi palvelukokemus: AI-avusteinen tuki ja prosessiautomaatio lyhentävät vasteaikoja ja parantavat asiakastyytyväisyyttä. Tehokkaampi toiminta: automaatio toimitusketjussa, tuotannossa ja taloudessa säästää aikaa ja vähentää virheitä. Nopeampi innovointi: pilvisiirtymät, modernisointi ja datan hallinta mahdollistavat uusia palveluita – ei vain kustannussäästöjä. Miksi AI-first juuri nyt? Tekoälyn ja datan hyödyntämisessä on paljon “helppoja voittoja”. Samalla markkina eriytyy nopeasti: ne, jotka vievät tekoälyn vastuullisesti tuotantoon nyt, rakentavat kilpailuetua, jota on vaikea kuroa kiinni myöhemmin. Microsoft Partner of the Year -tunnustus kertoo, että olemme oikealla tiellä, ja että pystymme skaalaamaan tekoälyn vaikuttavuutta turvallisesti. Rakennetaan yhdessä etumatkaa tekoälyä hyödyntäen. Vivicta on luotettu pohjoismainen digitaalisen transformaation kumppani, joka tekee arjesta sujuvampaa teknologian keinoin.Tuemme asiakkaidemme digitaalista kehitystä ja liiketoiminnan kasvua alati muuttuvassa maailmassa.
