Episode 09: Current PSA Trends: What the Future Holds
From Arc 3: Modernizing Service Organizations Through Automation
October 16, 2023 | 10 minutes
In the last episode of this arc, Sean and Stephen give a recap of episodes seven and eight, and cover current service organization solution trends, as well as what the future holds. Learn about the link between PSA and the successful management of distributed (or remote) teams, data quality and AI’s impact on professional services solutions, and more.
Key takeaways
- Distributed (remote) teams without a centralized solution can quickly become disorganized; this causes challenges with both internal project and client-facing project delivery
- The right PSA solution should help optimize the availability of resources via centralized data, collaboration, and capacity planning
- Accurate and complete data is vital to benefit fully from AI
- Most organizations still struggle with data accuracy and putting that data to work — this is something a PSA solution can help with
