As the world tackles the pandemic status of the COVID-19 outbreak, it is essential for you and your business to consider working remotely wherever possible to avoid the risk of contracting and spreading the virus. Businesses should be contemplating containment procedures and this includes rolling out work from home policies.

If you’re unsure where to start,  the Ashfords BizTech team recommend using Microsoft Office 365 because it has great tools that will enable you to work anytime, anywhere, on any device. It has the same Office apps you've used for years, plus all the benefits of operating from the cloud.


WEBINAR: Making the most of Office 365 


To support business in making this transition to working remotely, Trevor Schoenmaekers, BizTech Director, is hosting a free short webinar to help you get the most out of Office 365. This session is designed for those businesses already set up on Office 365 to get a better understanding of the features and how to make it work for a remote workforce.

When: Friday, 27 March 2020
Time: 1:00-2:00 pm

Webinar with Ashfords BizTech- Microsoft Office 365- Tips and Tricks

Why Office 365?

Office 365 enables users to share and access files, online and offline, as well as stay in sync with your team though its communication tool, Teams. Teams accommodates remote meetings on-the-go. It also integrates with Outlook, making scheduling appointments fast and simple. While this may help with some aspects of working remotely, we highly recommend the full Teams interface which is much more intuitive and enables a seamless move to a digital workspace. Some incredible features include document collaboration, one-on-one chat, team video chats and more.

Teams also offers a shared workspace for the various applications in Microsoft Office including PowerPoint, Word, Excel, Planner, OneNote, SharePoint, Delve and Power BI. These features give you and your teams the option to work from home without having to stress about swapping between applications as they try to get projects accomplished.

We understand that every business is at different stages of their journey to the cloud. If you aren't currently set up on Office 365, but are interested in learning more about the benefits and how it can work for you, please contact our Ashfords BizTech team. With years of experience, they are experts at making the process easier and can facilitate this transition.

What’s this new tax:

On 20 March 2024, the Victorian State Government introduced the Commercial and Industrial Property Tax Reform Bill 2024 (legislation.vic.gov.au). The Bill is expected to become law and to take effect from 1 July 2024.

The Victorian Government, as announced in the 2023-24 Budget,  is progressively abolishing stamp duty on commercial and industrial property and replacing it with an annual tax.

The annual tax, to be known as the Commercial and Industrial Property Tax (CIPT), will be set at 1% of the property’s unimproved land value.

The tax will replace land transfer duty (stamp duty) that is currently payable on the improved value of the land when you purchase or acquire a commercial or industrial property in Victoria.

The new tax system will start to apply to commercial and industrial property if the property is transacted on or after 1 July 2024.

Last week, Ashfords hosted the latest Building Business Value seminar. Maximising Business Value: Break Through the Barriers brought together a diverse panel of experts, featuring specialists from talent, marketing and finance to help businesses identify and overcome common barriers to enhance their business value.
