Cloud computing directly influences the maintenance of production process continuity which, from our perspective, is of key importance and has an impact on the proper functioning of the whole enterprise. Polcom’s project-oriented approach towards our needs, efficient implementation, and partnership-based attitude should also be emphasized.

We are very satisfied with our cooperation with Polcom. We are sure that we can rely on technical support and post-implementation care at any time which strengthens our security and business flexibility. Polcom Data Center is a professional provider of cloud computing services.

We decided to transfer our resources to the cloud in order to fully concentrate on the key elements, from the business perspective, that is on the provided services instead of infrastructure maintenance. Thanks to that we are able to respond to the changing needs of business and company’s employees in a more efficient way. The future of Skanska’s IT resources is in the cloud, whereas infrastructure migration and change in the way of its management and maintenance is the beginning of an evolution.

The key criterion for us in the IT are as well as on every construction site is safety. Apart from great flexibility and modern infrastructure, it was this very element that decided about the choice of a partner responsible for transferring Skanska’s resources to the cloud. The Polish company Polcom that apart from the highest security standards offered to us, an innovative and extremely user-friendly resource management model satisfied all these expectations.

IT environment migration to an external server room will enable us to optimize IT infrastructure management.  In view of the company’s strategy concentrated, to a large extent, on a continuous cost optimization and increase in business stability, we decided to migrate our key IT systems to the data center.

For us, such attitude means real savings and additional 24/7/365 support of Polcom’s specialists.
