Future Audio Services
DAS is attempting to find a solution that we can standardize on; that provides the functions needed and or wanted.  Our goal is to meet the vast majority of customers’ needs, but recognizing that we may not meet them all.  The state of Oregon has no single vendor that provides these services and it has been found when we consolidate our needs the cost goes down for all. 
 
The TSC has been tasked with providing a recommendation to DAS EXEC staff on which direction the state of Oregon should go to provide these services.  In essence, should the State outsource its volume or should we invest in a single solution and do it ourselves—insource.
 
To help answer the insource versus outsource question for Audio and Web Conferencing, DAS needs information from our stakeholders.  For example:
  • What is the volume? 
  • What are our customers using?
  • How are we using these technologies?
  • What is future usage?
  • What are your business requirements?
 
 
If you are interested in Audio & Web Conferencing and would like to be added to the Stakeholders email group please email suzanne.hein@state.or.us You will receive updates on the status of any RFP's, Contracts, and Vendors, and may be asked to provide input.
