With the recent completion of the Unified Messaging/Voice Mail Replacement project, OIT is now launching a long-term project to implement an updated phone system. The objective of the Phone Replacement Project is to replace the current campus telephone system (PBX), which has been in service for over 20 years.
More than new phones
The Phone Replacement Project will go beyond just simply replacing desktop handsets. This project will unify communications and provide additional features, functionality, and flexibility for both campus and remote users. The initial stages of the project will include an RFP for vendor evaluation and selection, plus a survey of select campus stakeholders in order to better determine telephone usage trends for admins and other “power users” across campus.
