International Services
The ultimate success of an organisation’s unified communications (UC) strategy relies on global standards and optimum local service delivery.
BUSINESS TASK
As a multi-national organisation you must not only be competitive internationally, but you must also be competitive in your respective local marketplace. The performance of your local business units is largely dependant upon a high level service level agreement (SLA) delivered centrally and the ability to quickly respond to your market needs. Therefore, your communication strategy, based on innovative solutions, matched with the highest quality service delivery, is a key success factor in today’s globalised markets. On an international scale, your organisation is particularly challenged to bring the maintenance of your heterogenous IT and voice infrastructure under one unified service governance model. Central IT must have the maximum level of control and transparency, in order to provide the quality services expected by your internal customers on a 24x7 basis. In the end, only a consolidated approach for IT and UC services, along with a migration path to a state-of-the-art unified communications platform will enhance the performance, speed and quality of your activities in your particular marketplace.
