Challenge

As communications technologies evolved, Microsoft sought to transition from its existing Telstra Calling for Office 365 (TCO365) platform to a modern voice architecture that reduced complexity, streamlined administration, and aligned with its cloud-first collaboration strategy.

Requirements

Microsoft required a seamless migration to a Teams-native calling solution that would improve operational efficiency, simplify voice management, and provide a scalable platform to support future communications needs. The solution needed to minimise disruption while maintaining enterprise-grade reliability and user experience.

Solution

imei delivered a migration to Microsoft Operator Connect, enabling PSTN calling directly within Microsoft Teams via Telstra Adaptive Collaboration.

The transition removed legacy complexity, simplified voice administration, and provided a modern cloud-based communications environment.

imei also assumed responsibility for the ongoing management and support of Microsoft Teams voice services.

Outcome

Microsoft now benefits from a streamlined, Teams-native voice platform that is easier to manage, more scalable, and aligned with modern workplace collaboration.

The migration reduced operational complexity, improved reliability, and established a future-ready communications foundation designed to support evolving business requirements.
