UXC LIMITED
UXC Limited (UXC) has entered into an agreement with the Tasmanian State Government to establish a UXC Enterprise Delivery Centre (EDC)/Customer Support Centre in Hobart. The Hobart based EDC is part of the investment UXC is making to further advance customer support delivery capabilities across key enterprise and government clients and to build a diversified services platform for clients in Australia, New Zealand and North America.
The Tasmanian Government has fully supported the expansion of the UXC presence as one of its initiatives to attract new industry to the state as a key means for growing and stimulating its local economy.
Cris Nicolli, Managing Director UXC Limited said: "This is a major and exciting initiative for both UXC and Tasmania. As an Australian owned Information Technology leader, UXC continues to look for opportunities to expand and develop the footprint of its capabilities. We believe this is an excellent example of what can be achieved by industry and government working together to realise an outcome that benefits both parties' interests and creates new local jobs."
The Tasmanian Government has granted $1.7m in industry support funding to UXC to assist with the cost of establishing its new operation in Hobart. The funding will be administered over a five year period. UXC will leverage its current footprint in Tasmania to grow the centre to over 60 positions over the next 18 months.
Mr Nicolli said: "The new EDC will provide an expanded base for UXC in Tasmania. It will build on the presence of our UXC Eclipse business which has a Microsoft support base in Hobart. Given UXC's Australian heritage, we are pleased to invest in and grow our business in Tasmania, and become an integral part of the state's ICT landscape."
