    Better digital access and services for Australians everywhere.

    Technology is changing the world at a pace we’ve never seen before. Organisations are under ever increasing pressure to adapt – to find intelligent, innovative digital solutions to an ever-growing list of priorities. This is particularly so in State, Territory and Local Government organisations which perform crucial functions like education, utilities, emergency services and regional community services.

    As digital innovation expands at scale so do the challenges faced by many of these organisations: redefining digital equity and reducing the digital divide, replacement of end-of-life technology and reduction of risk exposure to ensure continuous service, ability to communicate when and where needed for safety and productivity, the persistent skills shortage, every-evolving employee expectations, and the need to cater for flexible ways of working.

    Vocus Brilliant People Series: When a critical service provider in South Australia needed better connectivity for their employees in remote areas, our brilliant team rolled up their sleeves and got creative. The result? Improved safety, faster response times, better service to the community. Vocus' Wendy Smith shares.

    Enhancing Connectivity for Whitsunday Regional Council

    Whitsunday Regional Council, covering nearly 30,000 kilometres, faced significant connectivity challenges, especially in remote areas. The council's jurisdiction stretches from Airlie Beach to Bowen, Collinsville, and further into the mining regions. The need for a robust communication system was paramount to support work crews operating across this vast area.

    Whitsunday Regional Council partnered with Airbridge Networks and Vocus to implement Starlink satellite technology. This collaboration provided 50 Starlink units for vehicle fleets and 20 fixed services for critical locations such as airports, jetties, and animal welfare centres.
