Toyota deployed 22 Polycom videoconferencing systems within its local network.

Polycom Australia and New Zealand manager James Anderson said larger, international meetings are now more efficient and cost effective, and increased content sharing has allowed faster understanding and decision making processes between Toyota's offices.

Within the boardroom of the new Port Melbourne building, four fixed cameras allow visual delivery for meetings with up to 20 participants. The main auditorium's videoconferencing capabilities allow as many as 500 people to participate in video conferences for events like company announcements and launches.

Videoconferencing also allows Toyota to provide video-linked meetings between regional and national offices and its dealers.

Scott said the solution has delivered on its original objectives and Toyota is now looking to broaden the capacity to include more users.
