Accenture and Cisco are to form a 'virtual group' to help large enterprises around the world increase business agility by embedding collaboration and data centre virtualisation capabilities into their key business processes.
The group will design, build and run a portfolio of business solutions that integrate unified communication and collaboration tools into multiple applications across companies' IT infrastructures. The group also announced the launch of the first three solutions, which focus on customer contact transformation, infrastructure transformation, and unified communications and collaboration.
They claim that their cross company group will give customers access to Accenture's industry-specific understanding of how technology affects people and business processes and access to Cisco's expertise in advanced and emerging technologies, such as collaboration and data centre virtualisation.
"It will help large enterprises vastly improve the way globally dispersed professionals communicate and collaborate with fellow employees, customers, partners and suppliers in a wide range of industries, from telecommunications, healthcare and government to financial services, energy and utilities, regardless of whether the customer has contracts with Cisco or Accenture for the services."
