Australian Bureau of Statistics ditches Cisco for Skype
Australian Bureau of Statistics ditches Cisco for Skype.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has published a request for tender (RFT), seeking submissions for the migration of its telephony environment from Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) to Skype for Business Enterprise Voice.
The ABS is in the process of redefining its business processes as part of a department-wide transformation program aimed at changing the way information and statistics is collected, managed, and delivered.
According to the ABS, the transformation will involve "reengineering ABS business processes", as well as investing in enterprise-wide services and core foundation infrastructure which the ABS hopes will result in "reusable functionality" across multiple business activities.
"ABS' future state will be designed to be business driven, information and technology assisted, and operationally aligned," the RFT reads.
