by the contemporary setups; the
healthcare units in countryside areas
still do not have entrance to their

Summary of the SWOT Analysis – From the SWOT study of UXC Limited, it can be
assumed that even though the accessible services of the company are extremely professional
and have been successful in drawing the obtainable communication systems in the healthcare
units, there are a number of flaws and coercions to their services. UXC has been significantly
capable to improve the communication arrangement of the small and average sized healthcare
units in the urban as well as other developed areas but the healthcare units in the countryside
areas have not been able to contact UXC’s services (Uxcconnect.com.au, 2016). Furthermore,
the services and the mechanism procedures are exceptionally pricey as well as require the

5IT INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGMENT
most recent technical set of connections. As a result, many small healthcare units could not
afford UXC’s services due to shortage of finances and suitable transportation.
Recommendations – Investigating the limitations and intimidations associated with the
services of UXC, quite a few innovative steps can be suggested to develop the superiority as
well as utility of their services. The suggestions in three separate periods (short term,
midterm, long term) are as follows:
Short Term – For the short-term resolution, the company should employ additional safety
measures in the communication networks offered by them. In addition, they can grant simpler
and a reduced amount of exclusive versions of the communication straegies to the small
healthcare units so that they can have way in to a good quality communication system in their
units.
Midterm – In the next 12 months, the UXC can utilize their researchers to propose an
improved and cheap but more proficient communication formation. In addition, UXC can
make available a superior network structure with supplementary safety and utility. The
company should renovate the open network system into a closed network with a restricted or
certified access.
Long Term – In the following 3 to 5 years, the company should come across to supply
services to small as well as countryside healthcare units at a cheaper cost. Besides, the
company should put into practice the exercise of contemporary digital machinery and virtual
space (cloud computing) in the communication infrastructures of the healthcare units.

TASK B. Research on Mobile Technologies and Commerce
Abstract
A discussion about mobile technology and its impacts on commerce has been
attempted in this report. The mobile technology sector has recently been affected by huge
growth and evolution. In the light of this, the commercial organizations have started to utilize
mobile technology for the advancement of their mercantile activities. The organizations have
developed certain softwares known as mobile apps. These mobile apps enable the potential
customers to purchase the concerned company’s products and also pay the price of the
product to the company via the online mode. Overall, mobile technology has facilitated a
smooth, hassle-free transaction process for the customers. The customers also get the added
advantage of engaging in shopping, irrespective of his/her location. Unfortunately, there are
some demerits related to online shopping. Customers reportedly, have been deceived by the
online service providers. These providers allegedly deducted money from the customer’s
accounts without supplying them the required products.

Introduction
The process of operations related to computing methods and digital services have
become uncomplicated and effortless due to the renovation of the modern computing
systems. Computer technology is now readily available within the grasp of the customers in
the mode of mobile phones, thus increasing its mobility. Unlike now, previously, there were
only computers available to the users to provide technology. Mobile phones are now

7IT INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGMENT
becoming more modern day by day. Along with the communication system, there are various
other features, which the mobile operators are now providing to the buyers such as interesting
games, voice recorder, internet services, camera and others. Therefore, mobile phones have
become more entertaining and attractive.
Thus, report analyses the usage of mobile phones in the field of business and
commerce.
Mobile Technology and Commerce: Uses, Weaknesses, Implication on IT Industry
Mobile Technology
Computer technology has now come a long way from the primeval machines to the
small mobile handy systems which now people generally use. At first, mobile phones were
used only for the purpose of calling and messaging others. Now, with the advancement in
technology, mobile phones are utilized by the buyers for other different interesting purposes
such as listening to the radio, using route tracker systems, surfing the internet and others.
Amidst this, mobile phone developers have created a new model known as the smart phones.
The advent of the Smart phones has further amplified the effectiveness and usage of mobile
phones. Companies have started to incorporate smart phones in their e-commerce business
schemes to increase their sales ratio. Smart phones only give the customers the opportunity to
indulge in online shopping.
Mobile commerce
Previously, mobile internet services were utilized by the companies for the purpose of
publicizing and advertising the business. In the previous years, when smart phones were yet
to be invented, online shopping sites could only be retrieved through a laptop or a PC. Later,
these sites could be opened with the help of smart phones. Though smart phones provided the

8IT INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGMENT
services, they failed to offer quick service. This was because of the constraint in the space
and potential of the mobile phones. In order to curb this negative factor, mobile applications
were introduced in the market. These applications were perfectly eligible to be used in a
restricted space and within a limited coverage of the data plan. Undoubtedly, smart phones
assisted the customers in using the services of the e-commerce businesses. The customers are
also benefitted with certain additional services, while the product is in transit, such as getting
sms alerts in case of any emergency and a web link to track the status of the product and
many others.
Weaknesses/Threats
Along with the many obvious advantages that mobile commerce technology has
offered to the buyers and the companies, there are also certain disadvantages.
Reduction of the retail stores business – Due to the increasing popularity of the
mobile shopping applications, the retail store establishments are facing stagnation in their
business in a vast scale. Another important aspect, regarding this matter is that the e-
commerce firms generally charge minimal delivery cost and even sometimes they provide
delivery at free of cost, which further discourages people from commuting to the
supermarkets and the retail outlets
Unreliable provision of services at the rural areas- E-commerce purchasing
schemes are not widespread in the countryside as they are in the urban areas. This is because
of severe undevelopment in the transportation and the communication sector.
Increase in fraudulent schemes- Online shopping systems always puts the customers
at risk. There have been instances where the customers have failed to get hold of the chosen
products, even after the payment of money has been done. Companies are also accused of

9IT INFRASTRUCTURE MANAGMENT
compromising in the quality of their products, denying the customers the value for their
money.
Implications on IT Industry
The innovative and the technology-driven mobile commerce sector are now counted
to be a central part of the IT industry (Kourouthanassis & Giaglis, 2012). Many medium
businesses have come into existence after they have incorporated e-commerce scheme in their
portfolio. The cases of fraud and deceptions have led the company to develop stringent safety
measures, so the buyers do not face any hindrances (Shie, Philip & Tseng, 2013). The
customers get the chance to place an order for a product at any place and at any time of the
day and the company take the responsibility to furnish the product within the stipulated time
and at a nominal price (Lin et al., 2014).
CONCLUSION
Thereby, from the above report, it can be concluded that mobile phones are a
substantial part of the e-commerce establishments and also for those firms who are thinking
to incorporate e-commerce scheme. Due to the enhanced features of the smart phones, a
buyer can easily utilize the company’s services. The smart phones have facilitated the buyers
to engage in online shopping at any time, at any place and without even an internet wired
connectivity. In case of any query, the customers can also come in direct touch the employees
through their smart phones. The companies can also send emails or messages to inform the
buyers about some special offers and discounts. Resultantly, it is quite evident that mobile
technology constitutes an essential part of in the trading sector of the business firms.
