A Case Study with Fremantle Ports

Strategic planning for digital transformation with Fremantle Ports

Fremantle Ports strives to become a leading maritime gateway globally. Digital transformation is becoming critical to support this vision.

Using Summit Planning, the JourneyOne team were able to rapidly drive understanding of the challenges facing the Ports and develop and establish a comprehensive IT strategic plan, with a strong roadmap for the next 2–3 years.

The team's approach was broken down into three phases, so as to enable an incremental development of the strategy and maximise stakeholder input.

Strategic planning approach

One

Strategy formulation

Using the latest in site-based and remote facilitation techniques, we created an inspiring vision of the future of IT. Together, our team and Fremantle Ports mapped out the challenges and established the way forward. The approach united the IT leadership team and set the foundations for subsequent workshops.

Two

Strategy socialisation and uplift

With the key challenges defined and a set of objectives drafted, various collaborative sessions explored the organisational capabilities required to achieve the vision. Stakeholders from across IT mapped out what was needed to attain the desired level of maturity.

Three

Strategy visualisation

The team transformed outputs from the IT strategy sessions into engaging and easily articulated visuals, including a strategic roadmap that brought together individual actions into logical, prioritised and costed initiatives.
