The Coca-Cola Company has selected Nokia Lumia smartphones to be used by select sales forces in Vietnam and Cambodia.
The devices will be utilised on a daily basis by sales associates in those markets for order processing, equipment validation and market execution improvement.
Nokia’s smartphones were chosen in order to provide Coca-Cola staff with full support for Microsoft Office on the Windows Phone 8 platform, allowing easy synchronisation with Microsoft Exchange, SharePoint, Lync and Office365, as well as seamless integration with Outlook.
"Our collaboration with Nokia and Microsoft enables us to utilise our sales automation and market execution tools on two very progressive platforms," said Javier Polit, chief information officer of the Bottling Investments Group, The Coca-Cola Company. "We will be able to activate our teams with capabilities that enable us to further improve our execution and customer services by obtaining actionable insights. The Nokia Lumia and Microsoft platform fit our enterprise landscape well."
"By combining the Windows 8 platform with eye-catching design and innovative technologies, we have created smartphones that ensure Coca-Cola employees can operate flexibly across multiple geographies and time zones and still remain fully productive," said Stephanie Mosticchio, enterprise sales manager for North America at Nokia. "Providing seamless synchronization with Windows Phone 8 and Microsoft Office, Nokia Lumia smartphones enable Coca-Cola employees to work as effectively on the go as they would in the workplace."
