Challenge
Statistics New Zealand faced the complex challenge of managing over 40 legacy systems that were outdated and inefficient. These systems hindered productivity and posed significant risks, necessitating a comprehensive strategy to modernize infrastructure and streamline processes.
Solution
Polaris Ventures developed a robust enterprise roadmap, presentation packs, and templates designed to assess risk and value across proposed business opportunities. This strategic roadmap provided a clear path forward, guiding the modernisation process and ensuring alignment with Statistics New Zealand’s long-term transformation goals.
Result
The initiative led to improvements in enterprise portfolio management processes and the planning and delivery of a modernised infrastructure. The comprehensive enterprise roadmap developed not only helped streamlined operations but also provided a structured approach to managing risks and evaluating the value of new business opportunities. This transformation has empowered Statistics New Zealand to operate more efficiently and effectively, setting a new standard for enterprise portfolio management and service delivery in the organisation.
