Avaya — leading provider of solutions — has introduced its concept of Digital Transformation-as-a-Service to emerging markets. Launching SmartDXaaS, the company highlighted its range of cloud-based solutions and professional services at the annual Avaya Technology Forum (ATF) in Dubai.
The flagship technology event, the latest round in a series that will move on to Ireland and the US, will also see Avaya host a complete “Smart City†ecosystem in Dubai, with real-world demonstrations from public and private-sector organizations.
While enterprise CEOs are increasingly placing digital transformation at the center of their corporate strategies, organizations need trusted partners that can help them navigate today’s uncertain environments, while preparing for the challenges of tomorrow. According to IDC, by 2018 70% of silo-ed digital transformation initiatives will fail due to insufficient collaboration, integration, sourcing or project management, while by 2020 more than 30% of existing IT vendors will not survive in their current forms, requiring customers to realign their preferred vendor relationships.
