According to a study published by TSIA in April 2020, nearly three quarters (78%) of Field Service Organizations (FSOs) had either eliminated or restricted onsite field service dispatches in response to Covid-19 restrictions. Almost half (47%) of the companies surveyed renegotiated their Service Level Agreements(SLAs) with customers.
