"The role of the CIO continues to expand as technology innovations impact broader ranges of business functions. Innovations around unified communications (UC) are underpinning network-enabled business processes, collaboration, and communications across the global enterprise. Whilst cost savings and return on investment (ROI) remain key areas of focus for CIOs today, business enablement through technology is an increasing priority in this globally connected, competitive marketplace that is driving business process out over the network. This myriad of new developments is underpinning the growing demand for NCIS in Australia today," says Margaret Banaghan, Research Manager, IT Services, IDC Australia.
