Yanfeng Automotive Interiors implements an Avaya global cloud and
managed service solution covering 110 locations
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Avaya Holdings Inc. (NYSE:AVYA) today announced that Yanfeng Automotive
Interiors (YFAI) has connected its global locations and workforce with
an Avaya Cloud network. The company, which manufactures interiors for
the world’s most recognized automotive brands, is enabling thousands of
employees in 110 locations with Avaya unified communications and
collaboration solutions delivered via the Cloud. Avaya is also providing
managed services for YFAI’s entire communications operation.
Established in 2015, Yanfeng
Automotive Interiors is a giant in its industry. The newly-formed
company needed a global communications and collaboration platform that
would provide the advanced capabilities to easily connect employees in
any location around the world. At the same time, however, YFAI
recognized that the requirements for managing such a network would
detract from its focus on its core business.
The answer was to leverage Avaya’s expertise to deliver and manage
global private cloud network based on Avaya Aura® unified
communications. Using a standard cloud solution across the 20 countries
where YFAI has facilities enables the speed and agility the company
needs for employees to collaborate more effectively and efficiently. As
an OPEX solution, YFAI avoids extensive upfront capital costs and
instead has a predictable monthly cost structure.
“We felt that Avaya was the only company that could support our global
operations with a cloud-based solution with the quality, security and
resiliency we need for our workforce to collaborate anywhere in the
world. As our company grows, we believe that the Avaya Unified
Communications platform will support us into the future.”
