During the same time, Decimal Point Analytics was hard at work to sustain the business operations and ensure uninterrupted delivery to its customers. Decimal Point’s management announced “Work from Home” in early March considering the health and safety risk during the pandemic. They also decided not to implement any salary cuts for any of their employees. These initiatives ensured regular client deliveries were met and new businesses were signed up.
