"Together, HCLTech, Microsoft and Zebra are modernizing the worker experience to ensure every frontline worker is connected and optimally utilized. Our partnership will ensure continuous innovation to jointly deliver mobile, integrated, and secure solutions to enhance the frontline worker experience and achieve targeted outcomes around productivity, retention, engagement, and customer service by enabling workers to be their very best in any environment," said Drew Ehlers, Head of Global Partners, Zebra Technologies.

HCLTech, Microsoft, and Zebra have partnered to develop a comprehensive offering that helps enhance productivity and efficiency of the frontline workforce and enhance collaboration with the wider organization," said Rakshit Ghura, Senior Vice President and Global Head of Digital Workplace Services, HCLTech.
