Key offerings of the Infosys Live Enterprise Suite include:
Reimagining experience
- Employee productivity
Enables employees, customers and partners to interact seamlessly in an ‘always available, accessible anywhere’ mode, made easy through APIs and enabled by mobile, web and always connected devices. Live data from data pods and graphs are used to create seamless user journeys. This means employees can focus more on personal productivity. This ensures organizations are able to deliver the experience that employees expect.
All of this is possible with applications like:
Onboarding Platform: A one-stop self-help app that guides new hires from the pre-joining stage until after they onboard, thus enabling a smooth onboarding experience. It provides details on essential onboarding formalities, helps with documentation and other relevant information needed by new employees to help settle into the organization.
Employee Productivity Platform: Plays a key role in enhancing employee experience by ensuring all key transactions with the organization including latest happenings, attendance related transactions, travel, claims, IT helpdesk, notifications, personal information related to salary, emergency contact, performance reviews, etc., are easily accessible. It contributes to improving personal productivity, by providing access to all relevant information depending on an employee’s role and nature of work. Insights on work, account 360, talent pool, skillsets and more is made available to employees on-the-go, providing them with the best experience and helping them realize their full potential. - Experience configurator
The experience configuration kit reimagines user experience by ‘codifying the user state of mind’. This feature takes cognizance of real human behavior at the workplace. It formalizes the way people interact with user interfaces. Different users have different motivations in their day to day roles and therefore exhibit inherently different behaviors, which in turn influences their decision making and their expectation. The configurator captures this information using telemetry and uses it to personalize and contextualize the user experience. With Live Enterprise, user architypes are built-in, and the front-end experience is optimized based on parameters like the user’s desire for belonging, mastery or security at work. It constantly works behind the scenes to make the experience friendly.
Reimagining business processes
- Sentient process
Apply sentient principles to optimize processes by reducing latency and distance, facilitating instant simulation and providing guided practice. Feedback is collected from focused user group discussions about the processes they most frequently use. Design thinking workshops are then convened across the enterprise to curate ideas for improving the efficiency and experience of these processes. Best of the ideas are shared with the process owners who then pick the ones that best fit their objectives and go on to build implementation plans for creating optimized processes. - Infosys Microservices Acceleration (MSA) Platform

As companies undergo a digital transformation, they need to ensure that the organization and the people
- To become more agile
- To develop a digital first mindset
- To adopt the new dominant paradigm of cloud & AI
- To retrain and reskill their employees
The three tenets of the micro change approach are:
- Sigma of micro changes: Micro Change interventions are carried out to accompany through agile sprints, so that change occurs one micro step at a time, along with the agile build. The Sigma of micro changes help in bringing about the larger change during the transformation
- Routine +1: The change interventions are instituted bottom up in micro change, aided by changing routines in the current process (routine +1) and by providing the right cues, nudges, rewards and recognition. This does not mean the traditional top down OCM is not required – it is required initially along with the need for micro changes in a sustained manner, especially post the launch of the change
- Behavioral change: The cues and rewards which aid in bottom up change management, lead to the ultimate behavioral shift, the desired outcomes, and achievement of the vision, for the digital transformation via goals and KPIs.
