ARuVR’s newly-appointed status allows the company to continue building its learning technologies under stringent standards. As more and more companies turn to virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) solutions to upskill workers, ARuVR’s location-agnostic, unified solution helps firms upscale their training operations.
This includes the company’s long list of clients: Coca-Cola, British Telecom (BT), ScotRail, Amazon, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), Five Guys, and the Royal Air Force.
ARuVR’s repertoire of clients comes after the firm became the UK Government Crown Commercial Services’ first and sole provider of XR solutions. This is for the latter’s digital outcome, specialists framework, and Crown G-Cloud supplier lists.
The enterprise met the criteria based on an in-depth assessment with several key performance indicators, scoring nearly perfect marks across all categories. These included client value proposition, delivery capability, business integrity, and quality and performance management.
