A MAJOR Queensland hospital and health service has adopted leading ‘cloud’ technologies to reduce costs while improving patient care.
Queensland’s Metro North Hospital and Health Service has used its increased information technology capacity – through the cloud – to launch a next-generation electronic referral management system and clinical portal.
THE BENEVOLENT Society has turned to Dell’s Boomi integration platform as-a-service (iPaaS) to enable the organisation’s move to a 100 percent ‘cloud’ enterprise model to grow more effectively.
It is a significant commitment to business expansion for The Benevolent Society, recognized as Australia’s first charity. Founded in 1813, The Benevolent Society provides a range of support services to people with disabilities, children and families, older Australians and carers.
DAY TO DAY tasks once reserved for finance professionals are being taken over by data feeds, bots, and good system integration.
As information technology (IT) continues to evolve, the rise of smart financial applications have given rise to tools that even the lesser skilled can access to improve their clients’ businesses.
FOR PROESSIONALS in the architecture, engineering and construction sectors, an Australian IT innovator named Novius seems destined to change how projects are successfully managed and executed forever.
What Novius achieves sounds simple – providing a collaborative three-dimensional (3D) modelling environment in the ‘cloud’. However, achieving this in a way that enables all stakeholders to participate in real time, smoothly and effectively, has been the ‘holy grail’ for the interrelated industries Novius refers to as the ‘AEC’ sector.
IT HAS BEEN called the ICT industry’s David and Goliath battle – and two Davids won again when Brisbane-based companies SuretyIT and Cloud Plus beat out Telstra and Vodafone at the inaugural CRN Impact Awards.

FINANCIAL software company, myprosperity, has strategically partnered with The Institute of Public Accountants (IPA) to assist accountants to better service their clients.

AUSTRALIA’S largest enterprise software provider, TechnologyOne can now claim to be the first, and only, company in Australia to have its enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS) solution, certified to the highest standard by the Federal Government.
TechnologyOne executive chairman Adrian Di Marco said the business has been endorsed as the safest and most trusted provider of enterprise SaaS by attaining the Australian Federal Government’s Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP) certification. 
IRAP Assessors recommended that the Federal Government’s Certification Authority certify TechnologyOne’s SaaS solution as compliant to the Australian Government’s Information Security Manual (ISM) and be included on the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) Certified Cloud Services List.
“This endorses TechnologyOne as the safest and most trusted provider of enterprise SaaS in the world,” Mr Di Marco said.
“In the wake of the recent malware attacks across Europe, and with Australia’s investment in cloud solutions is set to approach $800 million by 2019 (according to The Telsyte Australian Infrastructure & Cloud Computing Market Study 2015), it has never been more important to verify the highest level of security for software provided and managed from the cloud.
“Businesses and governments must demand that their cloud software providers demonstrate the highest levels of security and data protection, to ensure business continuity.
“TechnologyOne has taken this step because there is too much at stake to overlook the importance of cloud security. It’s non-negotiable, especially as we approach the digital revolution when a cloud first, mobile first world is the norm.
“Having our software accredited to the highest standards possible enables our customers to acquire their security accreditations too,” Mr Di Marco said.
Elaborating on the measures TechnologyOne has taken around cloud security, Mr Di Marco said, “For us, it’s simply a matter of reiterating to our customers the multi-tiered security measures that come linked to the TechnologyOne SaaS solution.
“Automatic, highly secure and fail safe. This is the premise behind cloud technology of the future. There’s no excuse for omitting these measures in today’s cloud environment or taking short cuts,” Mr Di Marco said.
