'The outcome of this review has led us to take the decision to defer the project until a later stage,' the bank said, confirming a report from iTnews, which said that the migration had been delayed.ĭespite the delay, Westpac said that it is still committed to rolling out Exchange across the entirety of the Westpac Group, and would continue to work with its partners to that end, although it did not confirm when the roll-out would occur. The bank said that 'a number of factors', including the current economic climate, have caused it to make a review of the collaboration software that it had planned to use.
Westpac's mammoth project to move the bank from Lotus Notes to Outlook/Exchange has stalled, with the bank halting the migration following an internal review.
