SAS IT

Axicom is Australia’s leading provider of independently owned wireless infrastructure. The company owns, operates and manages a portfolio of approximately 2,000 towers in Australia, covering a substantial portion of the Australian population. Axiom’s customers include the major Australian wireless carriers such as Optus, Vodafone, Telstra and various State and Federal government agencies, as well as wireless broadband data service providers.

SASIT assisted Axicom to achieve a multifaceted IT system upgrade over a period of eleven months involving upgrading ERP software, refreshing hardware, changing data centres, and moving to a significantly more flexible hybrid architecture. These improvements were achieved on-time, on budget and have strengthened Axicom’s market position to the extent that Axicom now has a modern architecture, modern secure, high-performance infrastructure and the flexibility to deploy and use new technology as required, largely on demand and consumptive based.

“SASIT has delivered a significant improvement to the infrastructure solution they provide to Axicom, resulting in a full technology refresh, a change in datacentre and an architectural design shift. Each of these elements has delivered benefits to the Axicom business with improved performance, flexibility, availability and currency of long-term support. The most notable achievement was SASIT’s ability to deliver these complex changes on time, within budget and to specification in parallel with Axicom’s upgrade of its JD Edwards ERP system.”
