 ICT Enabled Change Transformation – Critical Success Factors

Large, ICT enabled change programs are challenging undertakings. There have been many well-documented examples of organisations getting things wrong, but these experiences have generally created opportunities to learn and draw out insights on how to increase the chances of future success.

The past decade has seen a massive improvement in the functionality, configurability and process maturity of business process software. Improved User interoperability and the elimination of low value work through process automation means that managers can now have real time access to high quality data on the health and performance of their operations, leading to improved delivery times, better use of resources, greater client satisfaction and, for the Private Sector, improved margins and profitability.

Yet, for all the value, organisation’s are still struggling with the same old problems that have always plagued transformation projects. What are these problems and why do they continue impact on the success of implementation? Before embarking on a transformation project what do you need to have in place? And, having commenced, how do you ensure a successful outcome is achieved?

In this session, Randall and Phil Young will share some of their experiences in working on large change programs along with some of the factors they consider critical to the success of such complex endeavours.
