With the TKD Device as a Service, companies receive smartphones, tablets, and notebooks in a rental model – including LifeCycle services for deployment, operation, and replacement.
WorkplaceNow, as an integrated ITAM platform, controls devices, processes, and services centrally and creates a clear structure for your entire mobile IT.
Device as a Service begins with WorkplaceNow.
Device as a Service (DaaS) describes a model in which companies provide mobile IT assets such as smartphones, tablets, and notebooks as part of a rental concept and manage them throughout their entire lifecycle.
Employees are ready to work at all times and are appropriately equipped. Deployment, operation, replacement, and return of devices take place in a structured manner, tailored to role, usage, and organization.
The TKD implements Device as a Service as an integrated model in which devices, processes, and services are coordinated with one another. This creates a consistent foundation for efficiently equipping mobile workplaces and operating them sustainably.
Investments in hardware are converted into predictable, ongoing costs
Device fleets grow and reduce flexibly with the organization
Monthly installments create transparency and facilitate budget planning
Operational tasks related to devices are outsourced and reduced
All processes related to procurement, usage, service, and analysis are brought together in a central structure. WorkplaceNow creates transparency, reduces complexity, and enables consistent management across the entire mobile IT LifeCycle.
Individual stores and predefined product bundles enable structured and simple reordering of devices and accessories
Structured reordering and rollout of devices including integration of enterprise IDs such as Samsung Knox, Apple Business Manager, and Google
Central overviews create transparency regarding device inventory, usage, and status
More independence for employees.
Many issues can be solved directly and quickly via self-services and integrated incident management — without unnecessary loops through IT.
Technology that fits people.
Employees choose devices that fit their working style and preferences. This strengthens satisfaction, acceptance, and productive use.
Onboarding without friction.
Devices arrive preconfigured, securely set up, and ready for use by new employees — productive from the first working day.
Services that truly relieve employees.
Support, Austausch und Services werden einfacher zugänglich — für eine bessere Nutzererfahrung über den gesamten LifeCycle.
WorkplaceNow combines device management, services, and automation into an operating model that relieves companies, empowers employees, and makes mobile workplaces professionally scalable.
Fewer tickets. Less operational burden. More focus for your IT.
From procurement and rollouts to returns, the TKD takes over operational tasks related to the device LifeCycle. With WorkplaceNow, recurring efforts are standardized and digitally managed — so that internal IT can focus more on value-adding topics.
More transparency instead of hidden operating costs.
With predictable services, transparent LifeCycle costs, and full inventory visibility, device management becomes economically controllable. WorkplaceNow not only makes costs visible but actively optimizable.
A model that adapts to your company.
New employees, site growth, or changing requirements can be mapped without new complexity. WorkplaceNow grows with you — instead of setting limits later.
Less manual administration. More digital workflows.
From ordering and replacement to return, device processes can be standardized and automated. This turns individual tasks into a continuous operational process.
Transformation without starting from scratch.
Existing devices, providers, and processes can be integrated and further developed in WorkplaceNow — without disruptive changeovers.
LifeCycle management with an economic and sustainable impact.
Longer usage, structured returns, remarketing, and transparent LifeCycle management make sustainability operationally feasible.
Across organizational and location structures, a digitized system is created that brings together transparency, analysis, and operational control in one platform — at a depth that goes far beyond classic device management.
Complex corporate structures are mapped centrally and can be clearly managed
Detailed reporting on end devices, usage, and development of the device fleet
Individually definable approval logics ensure clear processes and controlled orders
Digital service processes for incidents and requests – usable for administrators and employees
The transition to Device as a Service takes place in the TKD model without interrupting ongoing operations. With Buy & Rent Back, the existing device fleet is transferred directly into a rental model, while tied-up capital is released.
The TKD and Deutsche Telekom combine their expertise in a coordinated solution approach. Devices, mobile communications, and services are integrated into existing Telekom infrastructures and create a consistent basis for the operation of mobile IT.
Device as a Service is implemented according to industry-specific requirements. Structures and processes are oriented towards the respective application scenarios and enable solutions for healthcare, public, automotive, and service companies.
Leading companies rely on Device as a Service to no longer procure mobile end devices in isolation, but to use them as an integrated service.
The result:
Predictability in operation, relief for internal teams, and a continuous LifeCycle model.
An approach that turns device provisioning into a service.

With Device as a Service, companies have the opportunity to specifically expand their end device management with native service solutions. WorkplaceNow forms an integrated ecosystem in which central disciplines are brought together and managed in a consistent structure.
Security is established as a fixed component of the device fleet and ensures the protection of data, applications, and access structures. Endpoint Management enables central configuration, management, and enforcement of policies across all end devices. Managed Mobility complements this structure with the management of tariffs, SIM cards, and contract models and connects mobile communications directly with the operation of the devices.
This creates a continuous approach in which individual solutions are not used in isolation, but work together as coordinated building blocks and enable holistic management of mobile IT.
