XMReality, Inc. today announced that Anheuser Busch InBev is equipping three of its Zone Brewery Support locations with XMReality’s remote guidance in order to further improve technical support throughout its global breweries, enhancing service excellence and brewery output, and transforming the service process in a sustainable way.

Using XMReality Enterprise Helpdesk, AB InBev will save cost-consuming trips and support sustainable service, while reducing time for equipment repairs and overall downtime. Its experts can now guide any client or personnel carrying a smartphone, providing helpdesk experts with the ability to guide, validate and solve issues faster. It can use multi-participant calls to accomplish training and knowledge sharing (including different sites and people).

We have very high hopes for this partnership!”

We know that improved productivity as well as focusing on sustainability is important to AB InBev, and we are excited to help meet these objectives.”
