PLDT Empowers Coca-Cola Employees with Cyber Readiness

Digital Readiness, Real-World Impact

In today’s hyper-connected world, business travel isn’t just about boarding flights and attending meetings—it’s about staying secure, staying online, and staying productive. That’s why Coca-Cola Philippines recently partnered with PLDT Enterprise and ePLDT to host a specialized workshop aimed at upskilling employees in mobile usage and cybersecurity. Held at the CCEAP headquarters in Taguig, the session was more than a corporate training—it was a strategic move to future-proof a mobile workforce.

The goal? Equip Coca-Cola employees—especially those frequently on the move—with the knowledge and tools to manage devices, navigate roaming, and avoid digital threats. Because let’s face it, nothing ruins a business trip faster than a hacked phone or a dead SIM in a foreign country.

From Roaming Woes to Roaming Wins

One of the key highlights of the workshop was helping employees master international roaming. PLDT’s experts broke down how to configure roaming settings, monitor data usage, and subscribe to Smart’s Gigaroam packages based on travel needs. These packages offer seamless and affordable connectivity abroad—no more hunting for Wi-Fi in hotel lobbies or racking up surprise charges.

Participants also learned how to identify the right customer support touchpoints, ensuring help is just a call or tap away. It’s the kind of practical know-how that turns tech from a headache into a helper.

Cybersecurity: The New Travel Essential

Cyber threats don’t take vacations, and neither should your security protocols. The workshop tackled mobile-based threats like SMShing and phishing—those sneaky scams that can compromise sensitive data with just one click.

PLDT’s team walked employees through best practices for device care, password hygiene, and threat recognition. The message was clear: cybersecurity isn’t just IT’s job—it’s everyone’s responsibility. Especially when your office is a hotel room and your network is public Wi-Fi.

Percival Lawrence Ramos, Technology Services Director at Coca-Cola Philippines, put it best: “Having a partner like PLDT Enterprise who guides us even after deployment—translating complex solutions into real-world usage—makes all the difference in driving smarter and more secure business operations.”

Beyond the Basics: A Partnership with Purpose

This wasn’t a one-off seminar. It was a reflection of PLDT Enterprise’s long-term commitment to empowering clients beyond the sale. As Corinne Funk-Zablan, Assistant Vice President and Head of Customer Relationship Management at PLDT Enterprise, explained: “We’re here to support our partners like Coca-Cola throughout their journey—empowering their teams with the right tools and know-how to navigate the complexities of mobile usage and digital safety.”

That means ongoing support, tailored solutions, and a relationship built on trust—not just tech.

Addressing Enterprise Pain Points

Let’s be real—managing mobile plans, roaming settings, and data usage can be a logistical nightmare for enterprise teams. The workshop was designed to tackle these pain points head-on, offering clear, actionable strategies for streamlining mobile operations.

From choosing the right plan to optimizing device performance, the session helped Coca-Cola employees cut through the noise and focus on what matters: staying connected and staying secure.

Manufacturing Meets Mobility

The workshop also underscores PLDT Enterprise’s growing role in supporting the manufacturing sector’s digital transformation. As companies like Coca-Cola embrace mobile-first operations, the need for secure, reliable connectivity becomes non-negotiable.

By closing knowledge gaps and providing hands-on training, PLDT is helping manufacturers future-proof their workforce—one SIM card at a time.

Why It Matters

This initiative isn’t just about tech—it’s about trust. It’s about giving employees the confidence to travel, connect, and collaborate without fear of digital disruption. And it’s about showing that when enterprise partners invest in people, not just products, the results speak for themselves.

Because in the end, a secure workforce is a productive workforce. And that’s a win for everyone.
