In the ACMA contract announced today, Logica will provide ICT services and support for ACMA’s 540 staff located in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney, as well as supporting the organisation’s infrastructure and service management requirements for remote staff based in additional office locations around Australia. As an FMA agency within the federal government portfolio of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, the ACMA is responsible for the regulation of broadcasting, the Internet, radio communications and telecommunications. ACMA CIO, Cliff Van Lohuizen, said today the ongoing evolution and uptake of new technologies was a focus for the authority, and, as a result, ACMA “require a partner who can support this focus with experience and demonstrated skills in running an IT infrastructure similar to ACMA.” “We also set out to appoint an organisation who will engage with us in a strategic partnership and be proactive in both recommending and implementing improvements to our IT infrastructure and processes.” ACMA manager of LAN desktop outsourcing project, Michael Searle, said that, as part of the outsourcing agreement, Logica was tasked with assessing ACMA’s IT requirements and subsequently implementing systems for the transformation and management of the organisation’s servers, desktop and communications infrastructure. Logica Australia, CEO, Colin Holgate, said the company would put in place a team with “exceptional experience, focused on exceeding customer expectations around product innovation and user satisfaction.” |
