The university has estimated that it will achieve approximately $900,000 in cost savings with the new infrastructure. The University has been using IP voice for the past four years. Richard Constantine, its CIO and IT director, said: "Swinburne was a pioneer in trialling IP telephony four years ago and we understand benefits that it can deliver."
