Case Study with Parsons Corporation
Background Info
In 2019, WOS announced its partnership with Parsons Corporation—a digitally enabled solutions provider focused on defense, intelligence, and critical infrastructure markets to provide a phenomenal customer service experience and technical expertise to resolve employee’s IT problems during the first interaction with the Service Desk. WOS provides people, supervision, training, scheduling, case management and escalation, incident management, reporting, and metrics.
Managed Service Program Details
When Parsons Corporation decided on outsourcing the Service Desk for its incident management, they turned to WOS for assistance due to providing a valued added service. Parsons employees were offered support in using named accounts that can be uniquely traced back to them and are subject to the password policy and dual-factor/multi-factor authentication. Annual required security training has been completed and documented by all WOS consultants.
Through the WOS Outsource Centers, WOS has worked with Parsons to expand its global service desk capabilities. As part of the program, WOS will recruit and employ military veterans for their service desk, in order to expand and enhance and grow support capabilities. The program began in October of 2019 and is fully staffed and operated by military veteran WOS employees, furthering WOS’s and Parsons's commitment to employing military veterans.
Program Results:
“The Workforce program has allowed us to quickly grow our support and digital offerings, providing improvement across many IT disciplines. At the same time, WOS gives us a great opportunity to give back to those who have served in the military protecting our country. The additional support and training that the candidates receive from the WOS program allows these candidates to build on the skills they learned in the military and transition them to the civilian workforce.”
—Stuart Kippelman, Chief Information Officer, Parsons Corporation
