New hire? A PC that's ready on day one – without waiting for IT

With modern deployment, a new PC can ship straight from the vendor to the employee and be fully set up after the first sign-in.

The old way

In the past, IT had to unbox each device, install applications, and configure settings before handing it over. That took time, and new employees often waited days to get up and running.

How it works now

With Windows Autopilot and Microsoft Intune, the device is registered to your organization at the time of purchase. When the employee turns it on and signs in with their work account, settings, security policies, and applications download automatically.

The benefits

New employees get up and running faster, every device is set up consistently and securely, and remote employees and branch offices can have devices delivered directly. When a device needs to be reset, the process is just as simple.

What we recommend

  • Buy PCs from vendors that support Autopilot
  • Create a standard setup profile in Intune
  • Order equipment ahead of the employee's first day
  • Test the experience with a new employee
