NG Bailey's IT Services division has teamed up with vendor partner Mitel and analyst firm Ovum to create 'The Disconnected Enterprise', an eBook of articles and infographics exploring how cloud-based UC can help enterprise CIOs retain strategic control over their IT assets, drive corporate mobility initiatives and build a connected workplace of the future.
The article and infographic series takes a frank and pragmatic look at a number of major initiatives currently challenging CIOs and enterprise IT departments, and explores how UCaaS can be leveraged to their strategic and operational benefit.
Topics covered include digital transformation, enterprise migration to the cloud, bring/choose your own device, IP-convergence management and workplace flexibility.
"Many enterprises remain caught in a 'mobility mismatch' which has, to date, been the cause of more collision than collaboration," said Indi Sall, technical director, NG Bailey - IT Services.
"But once they have harnessed the power of UCaaS, delivered via the cloud, many CIOs are able to reconcile these problems, finding they suddenly have the operational and fiscal flexibility to manoeuvre.
"They can begin to claw back control over their IT assets from other departments and release internal expertise that has, for too long, been consumed by helpdesk requests. With this new agility they can push on with more transformational initiatives and, in the process, win back the confidence and respect of the next generation of tech-expectant workers.
"We thought it was time to tackle these issues head on. This is why UCaaS holds so much power to help CIOs take meaningful steps forward in their roles."
