Case Study

IPC “more efficient and cost-effective than ever” with cloud phone

IPC’s challenge

Find out how IPC, a global industry association, is better supporting their remote-working policy while reducing property overheads using Microsoft Skype for Business Online (in Office 365).

To help reduce property overheads, IPC had already established a work-from-home strategy. To support this, they needed a more flexible phone system that allowed employees to make and receive work calls from home – as they would if they were in the office.

The solution

To support anywhere access to documents and people, IPC gave 150 employees subscriptions to Microsoft Office 365 voice capabilities.

It also upgraded to the premium version of Skype for Business Online (in Office 365) for enhanced telephony capabilities.

“As an industry organisation, it’s important that we demonstrate fiscal responsibility to our members. By using Skype for Business Online, we are working more efficiently and cost-effectively than ever before.” – Habib Bilfaqi, network manager, IPC

The results

  • IPC has reduced its global real estate needs by 60%
  • Their work-from-home policy has been extended to more employees
  • They can host meetings with up to 250 – an increase from the previous limit of 25
  • They can securely delegate meeting leadership to employees
