We provide management of all IT related stock and the associated logistics, which includes a collection and refurbishment service for IT equipment from stores that are closing. IT equipment is returned to our recycling facility in Birmingham, where it is decommissioned, recycled or put back into stock at our main warehouse for re-use by Entain. Through the utilisation of our online portal Lifecycle™, equipment and services can be procured by Entain from the agreed approved stick held in our warehouse, which are ready for calling off as and when required.
We provide an end-to-end support service across in excess of 100,000 assets including multimedia screens, tablet devices, ePoS systems, chip and pin devices and any other technology used by Ladbrokes/Coral stores to enhance the customer experience. This includes procurement, on-going break-fix support from our field engineers through to recycling and disposal. An SCC engineer visits a Ladbrokes/Coral betting shop roughly every 15 minutes of each day of the week.
All equipment returned via our engineers to SCC enters our on-site workshop for repair and it then stored at our National Distribution Centre in Birmingham, ready for redeployment to Ladbrokes/Coral Stores as and when required. This has resulted in significant cost savings for Entain over the period of our relationship and also streamlines the It procurement process of purchasing new equipment.
We also support Entain remotely from our International Service Centre, who provide a triage service desk to attempt low level IT fixes over the phone in advance of scheduling an engineer visit. This provides roughly a 20% cost saving on the cost of sending an engineer to site and ensures a resolution is achieved as quickly as possible for the end user to minimise operational disruption.
Under the service management we also work in partnership to manage road maps and vendor relationships, innovation and a programme of continual improvement to ensure we remain current from both a technology and service delivery perspective.
