The ACTI Communications Infrastructure and Applications (ACTI-CIA) Working Group focuses on the challenges thathigher-education institutions face with respect to enterprise communication, collaboration, and mobility. Groupparticipants pool their collective resources, time, and energy towards investigating specific challenges and opportunities inthis space, sharing individual solutions, and developing effective practices for the higher-education community.
ACTI-CIA aims to help the organizational decision-makers in this space (senior IT managers, CIOs, CTOs, COOs, CFOs,provosts, etc.) focus on the important communication technology issues: emerging and evolving technologies, operationalchallenges, peer benchmarking, policies and procedures, federal and state regulations, staffing and service structures,
strategic planning, sustainable funding models, and other relevant topics. In addition, we believe it is crucial to provide aforum for meeting with vendors, especially as more core IT services are potentially commoditized and/or cast into thecloud, and as the seamless integration and interoperability of multiple vended and locally-developed solutions becomeseven more of a necessity and challenge.
The scope of this working group typically includes investigations around:
Telecommunications, including IP telephony, dual-mode phones, wireless, mobile infrastructures, and fixed-mobile convergence
