ROLE
Internet Commerce Australia (ICA) is a specialist independent consulting group that advises government and private sector organisations
on the harnessing of technologies to implement effective electronic commerce, mobile commerce and public key infrastructure.
Australasia is recognised today as being at the forefront in the practical live “customer oriented” implementations of technologies
such as public key infrastructure (PKI), mobile commerce, directory services, and internet payment services especially in support
of e-Government. ICA has been in business since 1996 providing this independent strategic consulting to the Australia, New Zealand

ICA consultants analyse business needs and processes to identify where improvements can best be achieved, where business benefits
justify the costs, and recommend the appropriate technology solutions to deliver the identified benefits.

PEOPLE - THE ICA DIFFERENCE
Our consultants offer clients a scope and depth of experience in the rapidly evolving electronic commerce world that we believe
cannot be matched by the more generalist IT consultancies.
ICA consultants are experts in the fields for which they are proposed, and they are always allocated to do the key work on an
assignment. We allocate only people who have a wealth of practical experience, and who are familiar with the latest industry and
technology developments.
Members of the ICA consulting group have a proven track record over many years of delivering effective electronic commerce solutions
to Australian and International clients.
INVESTMENT IN EXPERTISE
Our consultants actively participate in a number of international and national standards and industry forums, State and Federal
Government supply and quality assurance bodies, ISO, Standards Australia and industry associations.
The firm is a member of a number of peak eBusiness industry bodies. One of our consulting partners was the chairman of the peak
industry board and government lobbying group for the PKI industry in Australia - The Certification Forum of Australia, a board
member of WEMA the World Messaging Association, and a board member of the Australian government National Electronic Authentication
Council. We are currently a member of the IT Security chapter of the Singapore Infocomm Federation. This investment in research,
active involvement in the industry and international networks enables ICA to maintain a current knowledge base in the rapidly moving
world of Identity & Access Management, Smart Cards and PKI as well our specialist knowledge in Port & Trade Logistics. ICA Consultants
and Directors are also frequent speakers at International conferences such as the Information Security Solutions - Europe (ISSE) in
Budapest (2005) and Rome (October 2006), EEMA Conferences in Barcelona (June 2006), Brussels (March 2009), the FXS Conference in
Singapore (July 2007) and the Homeland Security conference in Singapore (Sept 2007). ICA Directors are also asked to chair conferences
such as the Information Security Asia conference (Kuala Lumpur 2006, 2007 and 2009).
OPEN KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER
Our consultants always work closely in a team arrangement with our clients, to achieve the optimum mix of technical skills and
business knowledge that will ensure a cost effective and successful result. This is critically important when introducing new technology. We can help develop your staff through a process of hands-on knowledge transfer backed up by formal training during a project.
