Executive summary
A multi-campus education provider embarked on a significant three-year ICT transformation agenda comprising more than 20 critical initiatives and a substantial investment. While the ambition and funding were in place, the organisation lacked sufficient internal capacity and capability to design the transformation strategy and lead execution at scale.
Our consultant was engaged to develop the digital transformation strategy and subsequently act as delivery partner, providing program leadership, governance, and change capability to ensure the transformation delivered measurable outcomes while minimising disruption to business-as-usual operations.
The engagement delivered a clear, executable digital transformation strategy aligned to organisational priorities and capacity. A robust governance and PMO capability improved visibility, control, and confidence across the portfolio, while structured change and training enabled staff readiness and reduced operational disruption.
