Imtech implements TelePresence: less CO2 emissions thanks to effective remote conferencing
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Gouda, the Netherlands - Over the coming six months Imtech N.V. (technical
services provider in Europe) will equip all its European head offices with
high-tech TelePresence solutions of Cisco. This will enable effective
'real-live' conferencing, and will greatly reduce travelling time, expenses and
CO(2) emissions. The solution will lower Imtech's carbon footprint and is an
excellent fit for the group's policy on corporate social responsibility.
What is TelePresence?
TelePresence is a high-tech solution of Cisco. It consists of a combination of
technologies for the perfect simulation of 'real-live' meetings. Participants
appear to be actually sitting opposite each other, regardless of their physical
location. TelePresence thus goes further than videoconferencing, as it enables
direct eye contact and displays high-definition pictures real-time on large
screens. This creates the look and feel of a physical face-to-face meeting.
Non-verbal signals are also conveyed and it is possible to share presentations
and additional with each other. In the fast-growing Imtech organisation (345
European offices and 70 international maritime sites) this solution will
contribute - without repeated international travel - to a further
intensification of contacts, implementation of common projects and Imtech-wide
initiatives.
Implementation
The TelePresence solution will be implemented by Imtech ICT Communication
Solutions in close co-operation with Cisco Professional Services and Imtech
ICT's Shared Support Centre. The TelePresence units will be interconnected by
means of ImtechNET, the corporate ICT network of Imtech, with the central
hardware being installed in the data centre of the Shared Support Centre. This
assures the highest level of security and transmission rate.
