ATSICHS Brisbane is one of the oldest and largest
Indigenous community organisations, delivering
quality and appropriate health and social support
services to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait
Islander people of Australia.
Challenged to replace its aging IT infrastructure,
nascent governance and reactive service
management, it needed to create a modern digital
roadmap that would lead it forward in delivering key
priorities in health and community service.

With the help of Accenture, ATSICHS aimed to redefine the characteristics of its
programs and services:

A robust approach
• Working closely
with clients
• Extensive research
• Drive internal change
• Break down barriers
• Make continuous
improvements
• Simplified solution and
processes

• Throughout the project, we worked very closely with the
Director of New Business and Implementation and the
senior executive team throughout to ensure quality
outcomes and client satisfaction.
• We did extensive research into ATSICHS business values
and operations, engaging with digital and healthcare sector
subject matter experts.
COLLABORATION

INNOVATION
02 • We held design thinking workshops to drive internal
change, guiding internal employees in deciding the best
direction for their teams and the overall organisation.
• We challenged the status quo by breaking down barriers
and helping the organisation move away from traditional
methods to design-led, client-centric strategies.

VALUE
03 • We held workshops with key initiative owners to ensure
buy-in to make continuous improvements to the initiatives and
exceed expectations. Client inputs were used at every stage
of the project to ensure deliverables exceeded desired
outcomes.
• The solution and processes were simplified to promote
acceptance within the organisation.

A route to the future
With an IT strategic roadmap, ATSICHS has a clearer
understanding of how to move ahead with its digital
transformation.
 A foundation of IT Governance and fit for
purpose systems
 A digital workplace to implement systems that
will take ATSICHS into the future
 Differentiated client services through digital
services and data driven decision making

Paving the way forward
A strong IT Governance capability is the
foundation of the IT services.

ALIGNMENT
A robust technical backbone mitigates organisation risk
and provides future flexibility.
Tight alignment between business needs at IT services ensure services
support employees, not the other way around.
Experimentation with emerging technologies informs IT
service decision making.

The success of the project was noting
the organisations’ immediate and
natural adoption of the roadmap
with no further training or
explanation required. It is
a living and breathing
document … ATSICHS is
now prepared to digitally
transform our business
and the way we serve
our community.”
