There are many technologies within a unified communications (UC) suite that are changing the way business is conducted in organizations throughout every industry. While many companies enjoy great benefits from the seamless integration of telephony and messaging services into one platform, video conferencing can be a powerful tool to increase efficiencies and reduce costs.
For example, in previous generations, anytime a consultation needed to occur between multiple parties in a professional setting, the individuals needed to travel to a physical location and confer face-to-face. This often requires that transportation costs be paid, often falling into the responsibility of the company itself.
This issue was becoming problematic for officials in Louisiana, as a court system in LaSalle was incurring high fees in order to transport individuals who had been taken into custody to and from the courthouse.
According to an article published by local Louisiana news source the Jena Times, anytime someone was arrested in the area, they needed to appear in front of a judge at the LaSalle Parish Courtroom on two separate occasions for an initial bond hearing and later for an arraignment.
However, while in custody, the court was responsible for transporting these individuals back and forth, resulting in transportation costs that totalled more than $30,000 for the municipality.
But, by deploying an innovative video conferencing system, arrested citizens can now appear before a judge remotely and receive their sentence without having to incur any additional travel costs.
Considering such, it would be wise for any other organizations in the country that accrue hefty transportation costs to turn to a national IT service such as CTI Technology that can provide video conferencing solutions. CTI’s experienced staff members can establish the connection and network required for effective remote consultation and pre-test the service to ensure that it meets the expressed needs of the client.
