They are utilising the correct use of a remote working model with the video conferring meetings and online chats. There is even software like Zoho, GoToMeeting and more that are being so helpful in this corona times.

The COVID 19 outbreak has taken the world to storm. It’s been more than six months of this pandemic in India, especially but still there is no vaccine or drug to kill this deadly virus. From the developed to underdeveloped countries, all are struggling to maintain their business continuity in this challenging time. They are devising strategies to manage their economic downfall in this pandemic.

However, it’s tough to manage for IT companies their workflow because many international clients have stopped their billing. Thus, companies have to amend their plans and work management without firing their employees or deducting their salaries.

While having a word with the Project Manager Vivek Awasthi, we got to know a few of their strategies and working process. The company already made their mind that something like this is going to happen. Their management team had already created strategies to ensure a smooth workflow during the work from home. They believe nothing has changed; only the physical team communications have been substituted with virtual communication. Even, they are working more effectively in these remote working models because the team doesn't want to give their clients any reason to stop billing. They are putting every possible effort to work efficiently and meet deadlines with no ifs and buts.

Better if other companies follow the same path or amend their existing working models to grow in this challenging time. There is nothing new in their plan, but the way they are working and growing in this outbreak is proof of intelligence and best decision-making capabilities.

All we need to do is come up with socio-economic business plans to strike a balance between human resources and revenues.
