This category recognizes the adoption of mobile and wireless strategies in the non-traditional mobile workforce. Submissions are evaluated on the ability of field workers to connect with corporate applications and data to get business done in a remote business environment. Increases in efficiency, service enhancement, productivity, and bottom line return are considered as part of this award.
