"The whole team was a massive support and although under pressure provided an absolutely fantastic service under very difficult situations to us. Had we of not pulled the support forward we would have had huge issues where it could have potentially halted operations."

The Challenge
The initial plan was to begin onboarding in February with 12-15 weeks to fully move Global over to AZTech and provide training. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown being issued on 23rd March 2020, Global Pacific requested the onboarding to be pulled forward so they could be fully supported by AZTech immediately.
Our Solution
As this was an unusual situation, we needed to be flexible with our approach. We immediately began updating our roadmap to compact a migration of 12-15 weeks into 4-6 weeks.
