  of Australia’s largest and most qualified Network Services organization.

 Telstra’s service to enterprise and government customers is internationally recognized for
  its high quality, including full International Customer Service Standard (ICSS)
  certification.
PROBLEMS
 Telstra has an ongoing commitment to improve productivity within both its own
  organization and that of its customers.



 Environmental responsibility was also a key focus.



 Managing these far-flung activities required a high level of communication and
  collaboration, not just within the organisation but also with suppliers, partners and
  customers.



 Telstra staff, in particular its executives and sales teams, need to travel long distances to
  conduct business.
 Costly, inefficient and not aligned with Telstra’s commitment to sustainability, avoidable
travel hampered the company’s ability to improve business performance .


And also the profitability in an increasingly complex environment was affected.


 Executives round-trip drive many times of six to eight hours or domestic flights for meetings,
the result was high travel costs and lost productive time
SOLUTION
Telstra realized that video conferencing would promote both of these aims while delivering
cost efficiencies across a distributed enterprise.


Accordingly, Telstra enlisted the aid of Polycom to deploy its world-leading video
conferencing solutions.


so they replaced all off site meetings with onsite, where basically the 650 people in the
organization now meet by video conferencing.

 The first half of 2009/10, Telstra hosted over 1700 meetings in the Executive Briefing Centre
in Melbourne alone, of which over 40% were video conferences.


 As a result, executives would had as many meetings as they did in the past, but they’re much
richer, shorter, sharper.


 The power to do more work in less time.



 video conferencing is not just for large organizations. Telstra is trailing a range of tools
designed to help smaller organizations measure their own productivity benefits.
In Health Care

1. Emergency Room/Intensive Care Unit
   Support

2. Consultations

3. Health Education
By 2001, advancements in video, computer, and robotics
technology led to the first transatlantic tele-surgery, a gall
bladder removal, from 4,300 miles away. The surgical
procedure was conducted by a surgeon in New York City on
a patient who was located in Strasbourg, France. The surgery
was a technological breakthrough in many respects and
marked the beginning of true clinical capabilities for these
types of technologies.
ADVANTAGES

Reduction in travel costs.
Time savings.
Reduction in carbon emissions. (green technology)
Services across many different hospitals.
Ill patients often benefit physically and emotionally
Improved communications. (ability
                   to see “body language”, facial
                   expression, etc.)

Some other Benefits

 Reduced costs. Transportation, parking, meeting room space, and
  wasted wage costs all fall.
 Ability to meet at short notice. Wider involvement becomes possible as
  phone based conferencing increases the ability of your people to join key
  meetings.
 Choice of location for meetings. e.g. straight after dropping the children
  off at school.
 Reduced carbon footprint as travel decreases.
 Freed-up meeting room facilities.
 Record conference calls for those who cannot attend or for keeping a
 record of what actions where agreed.
Economical Benefits Of VC



 Saving in travelling cost by 70-80%
 Saving in meeting place by 90%
 Saving in allowance by 80%
 Reduce cost of managing chronic patient populations
 $1,600 spent per patient/annum for patients using telehealth
  to support their chronic conditions, as compared to $13,121
  per patient/annum for those using home-based primary care
  services, and $77,745 per patient/annum for those using
  market nursing home care services²
Review

 “Videoconferencing allows for earlier meetings and therefore quicker
  care, it can also improve treatment by permitting more consultations
  which, in the past, may have been impossible.”
  ----Mr. Richard Steyn – Consultant Thoracic Surgeon and National
 Clinical Lead Cancer Modernisation.
 “Apart from saving consultants lots of time, the systems have enabled us
  to make more timely patient management decisions through improved
  liaison. It has meant, for example, better oncology input into management
  thereby helping us to meet the Cancer Peer Review Guidelines. In
  addition there has been more input from the specialists from other sites
  who might ordinarily been unable to attend.” –---Dr. Raji Ganesan –
  Consultant Histopathologist at The Women’s Hospital, Birmingham.
Video conferencing In Court &
Jail
 A video-conferencing system that links county
  courtrooms to the county jail, have reduced inmate
  transportation costs and improved courthouse
  safety.
 The county also is an affiliate of a video locator
  service which pays the county for use of the
  equipment, another source of revenue for the county
Video conferencing saves Montgomery C
            On August 27, 2012, in News, by Tim Hall




•In mid-2001 country saved $1,36,000 in inmate
transportation costs.
•In 2002, during the first full year of implementation,
a total of 1,197 video conference hearings were held,
saving the county just over $186,000 in
transportation costs.
 The number of video conference hearings has increased and savings
  have grown to a high of $1,123,612 in 2010, officials said. During 2010,
  the county scheduled a total of 2,365 video hearings.
 Total savings, comes to $1,416,032, according to the statistics.
 video technology saved the county $359,337 in transportation costs
  during 2011, officials said.
 In 2011, there were 1,858 video hearings between the jail and the
  courthouse, an increase of 162 over 2010. By not having to transport
  inmates from the county jail to the courthouse, the use of video
  technology saved the county $359,337 in transportation costs during
  2011, officials said.
Orissa government profile


Orissa is a state in eastern India, about 600km by
400km at its widest points with a population of
around 41 million. It has 30 districts and the state
capital at Bhubaneswar.
Problems
 Government officials must engage in discussions on a
whole variety of issues, and this has traditionally been
done by physically moving those decision makers to a
single location.

 Given, India’s rather centralised model of government
decision making, this has meant frequent car journeys for
district officials to the state capital; given that a continuous
source of CO2 emissions given that district headquarters
lie up to 400 km from Bhubaneswar.
Every time at least 2 car full of personnel travelled from each district
headquarters to Bhubaneswar.

The potential environmental value of the application has come to be
recognised more over.

time, as concerns about climate change have grown.

Government officials had round-trip drive many times of six to eight
hours or domestic flights for meetings.

Due to this number of meetings held were not sufficient to cope with the
number of issues. Hence regular delays in many issues.

The result was high travel costs loss of productive time in Travelling &
continuous CO2 emissions.
 On average, district headquarters are 250km from the state capital, thus
requiring each District Collector to make a 500km roundtrip in a diesel powered,
air conditioned car per meeting .



 Based on the typical fuel consumption of the Ambassador and related cars used
(12 km per liter) and the cost of petrol (Rs.70per liter), then the fuel cost per
roundtrip would be around Rs.3,000. It is the norm to estimate that total
transportation costs (i.e. wear and tear, maintenance, depreciation) add the same
amount again as the fuel costs. To this one can also add the additional costs (not
salary) of the driver for two days of Rs.1,000. This therefore provides a direct cost
figure of around Rs.7,000 per visit. (Of course, there are also the time costs of
having senior officials out of station plus also costs for food and lodging in state
facilities)
•Multiplying this up for all 30 District Collectors, the
direct costs per meeting are something like Rs.210,000 =
US$4,200. It is likely that the indirect costs of time,
lodging, etc at least double this figure; with a reasonable
estimate being US$10,000 per meeting.
Benefits

They may do so only in a relatively small way but – if the assumptions above
are close to correct then VC in Orissa reduces carbon emissions by the equivalent
of the CO2 produced by a car travelling one million kilometres every year.


Assuming that the cars driven are somewhere around the Euro2 norms for
emissions, that would indicate something like 200g/km of CO2 emissions. Given
each main meeting involves 30 trips averaging 500km each, then the per meeting
saving is 3,000kg of carbon dioxide.
Figures provided by one of the District Collectors suggest that the
pre-videoconferencing norm was for two visits per month to be
undertaken to the state capital then the annual saving would be
US$240,000.



Taking the past five years’ data, an average of 25 meetings per
month are held in each of the videoconference facilities. Were those
each to attract the savings attributed to meetings of all District
Collectors, then total cost savings of US$250,000 per month – US$3
million per year would be attributable.
Thus, while it is not possible to put an exact financial
figure on videoconferencing, it is highly likely that the
system far more than pays for itself in terms of the
savings generated. (Noting that the financial flow means
the state government is paying NIC typically around
Rs5,000 (.US$100) per meeting.)

  • 29. Review  “Videoconferencing allows for earlier meetings and therefore quicker care, it can also improve treatment by permitting more consultations which, in the past, may have been impossible.” ----Mr. Richard Steyn – Consultant Thoracic Surgeon and National Clinical Lead Cancer Modernisation.  “Apart from saving consultants lots of time, the systems have enabled us to make more timely patient management decisions through improved liaison. It has meant, for example, better oncology input into management thereby helping us to meet the Cancer Peer Review Guidelines. In addition there has been more input from the specialists from other sites who might ordinarily been unable to attend.” –---Dr. Raji Ganesan – Consultant Histopathologist at The Women’s Hospital, Birmingham.
  • 30. Video conferencing In Court & Jail  A video-conferencing system that links county courtrooms to the county jail, have reduced inmate transportation costs and improved courthouse safety.  The county also is an affiliate of a video locator service which pays the county for use of the equipment, another source of revenue for the county
  • 31. Video conferencing saves Montgomery C On August 27, 2012, in News, by Tim Hall •In mid-2001 country saved $1,36,000 in inmate transportation costs. •In 2002, during the first full year of implementation, a total of 1,197 video conference hearings were held, saving the county just over $186,000 in transportation costs.
  • 32.  The number of video conference hearings has increased and savings have grown to a high of $1,123,612 in 2010, officials said. During 2010, the county scheduled a total of 2,365 video hearings.  Total savings, comes to $1,416,032, according to the statistics.  video technology saved the county $359,337 in transportation costs during 2011, officials said.
  • 33.  In 2011, there were 1,858 video hearings between the jail and the courthouse, an increase of 162 over 2010. By not having to transport inmates from the county jail to the courthouse, the use of video technology saved the county $359,337 in transportation costs during 2011, officials said.
  • 34. Orissa government profile Orissa is a state in eastern India, about 600km by 400km at its widest points with a population of around 41 million. It has 30 districts and the state capital at Bhubaneswar.
  • 35. Problems  Government officials must engage in discussions on a whole variety of issues, and this has traditionally been done by physically moving those decision makers to a single location.  Given, India’s rather centralised model of government decision making, this has meant frequent car journeys for district officials to the state capital; given that a continuous source of CO2 emissions given that district headquarters lie up to 400 km from Bhubaneswar.
  • 36. Every time at least 2 car full of personnel travelled from each district headquarters to Bhubaneswar. The potential environmental value of the application has come to be recognised more over. time, as concerns about climate change have grown. Government officials had round-trip drive many times of six to eight hours or domestic flights for meetings. Due to this number of meetings held were not sufficient to cope with the number of issues. Hence regular delays in many issues. The result was high travel costs loss of productive time in Travelling & continuous CO2 emissions.
  • 37.  On average, district headquarters are 250km from the state capital, thus requiring each District Collector to make a 500km roundtrip in a diesel powered, air conditioned car per meeting .  Based on the typical fuel consumption of the Ambassador and related cars used (12 km per liter) and the cost of petrol (Rs.70per liter), then the fuel cost per roundtrip would be around Rs.3,000. It is the norm to estimate that total transportation costs (i.e. wear and tear, maintenance, depreciation) add the same amount again as the fuel costs. To this one can also add the additional costs (not salary) of the driver for two days of Rs.1,000. This therefore provides a direct cost figure of around Rs.7,000 per visit. (Of course, there are also the time costs of having senior officials out of station plus also costs for food and lodging in state facilities)
  • 38. •Multiplying this up for all 30 District Collectors, the direct costs per meeting are something like Rs.210,000 = US$4,200. It is likely that the indirect costs of time, lodging, etc at least double this figure; with a reasonable estimate being US$10,000 per meeting.
  • 39. Benefits They may do so only in a relatively small way but – if the assumptions above are close to correct then VC in Orissa reduces carbon emissions by the equivalent of the CO2 produced by a car travelling one million kilometres every year. Assuming that the cars driven are somewhere around the Euro2 norms for emissions, that would indicate something like 200g/km of CO2 emissions. Given each main meeting involves 30 trips averaging 500km each, then the per meeting saving is 3,000kg of carbon dioxide.
  • 40. Figures provided by one of the District Collectors suggest that the pre-videoconferencing norm was for two visits per month to be undertaken to the state capital then the annual saving would be US$240,000. Taking the past five years’ data, an average of 25 meetings per month are held in each of the videoconference facilities. Were those each to attract the savings attributed to meetings of all District Collectors, then total cost savings of US$250,000 per month – US$3 million per year would be attributable.
  • 41. Thus, while it is not possible to put an exact financial figure on videoconferencing, it is highly likely that the system far more than pays for itself in terms of the savings generated. (Noting that the financial flow means the state government is paying NIC typically around Rs5,000 (.US$100) per meeting.)
