Astea International to Demonstrate Latest Technology Advancements at the Gartner Symposium/ITxpo in Australia
Astea Joins CIOs and Senior IT Executives to Discuss Harnessing the Digital Wave to Drive Optimal Business Outcomes

HORSHAM, Pa., Oct. 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Astea International Inc., a global provider of service management and mobility solutions, will be showcasing its latest service management and mobile workforce innovations as a sponsor at the Gartner Symposium/ITxpo, 26-29 October, Gold Coast, Australia. The Gartner Symposium is the world's most important gathering of CIOs and senior IT executives, providing a strategic view on the trends that shape IT and business.

As service delivery grows more complex and competitive, companies committed to achieving service excellence require a comprehensive solution that delivers results. The availability of low-cost sensors, higher-bandwidth wireless networks, more robust batteries, cloud computing infrastructure, location-awareness technology, and Big Data analytics will move the traditional service delivery model beyond the simple alert-dispatch-repair applications to a more proactive, predictive outcome-based service model. Now is the time to start building & implementing a strategy to capitalize on these technologies to uncover real, transformative outcomes. Astea experts will be on hand to demonstrate how companies can leverage the latest technology advancements to more accurately predict equipment failures, create usage-based maintenance schedules, reduce the number of truck rolls, improve inventory utilization, and meet greater service level agreement (SLA) commitments with fewer resources.
