Creating an IT roadmap for growth

SRT Logistics recognised that its existing digital systems were no longer well aligned with the organisation's future growth plans. To support its five-year growth strategy, the business needed an IT platform that could scale with the organisation, improve access to information and strengthen collaboration with customers and partners.

The challenge was not simply selecting new technology. SRT needed a clear understanding of its future operating model, the systems required to support growth and the implementation pathway needed to transition from its current state to a more scalable and responsive business platform.

Solution: IT Strategy and Operating Model Development

The Project Lab worked closely with SRT Logistics to understand the organisation's growth ambitions, operational requirements and technology challenges. Through a structured discovery and planning process, we helped establish a technology strategy and implementation roadmap aligned with the organisation's broader business objectives.

Our approach:

  • Facilitated discovery workshops to understand business goals and future requirements.
  • Developed a system replacement roadmap to support long-term growth.
  • Defined a target operating model to clarify how future systems, people and processes would work together.
  • Reviewed organisational structures and identified key roles required to support implementation.
  • Clarified responsibilities and decision-making pathways through the development of a RASCI matrix.
  • Assisted with recruitment into key implementation roles.
  • Developed governance arrangements and high-level implementation planning to guide delivery.

Project results

The engagement delivered:

  • A tailored technology strategy aligned with SRT Logistics' five-year growth objectives.
  • A roadmap to guide system replacement and future capability development.
  • Greater clarity around the organisation's future operating model and implementation requirements.
  • Recruitment of key personnel to support implementation activities.
  • A stronger foundation for future growth, integration and operational efficiency.

Most importantly, SRT Logistics gained a clear understanding of the technology, operating model, skills and resources required to support future growth, providing confidence and alignment for the organisation's next phase of development.

"At SRT Logisitcs, our strength has always been flexibility and speed, but at times this has posed challenges when our IT systems couldn't keep up with our ambitions to grow. The Project Lab's expertise in developing an IT strategy that aligns with and supports our business strategy has been invaluable.

With their guidance, we now have a clear understanding of our operating model, the internal skills and resources required for sustained success and an implementation roadmap to drive the necessary changes. As the new CIO, I was able to hit the ground running, knowing that the entire organisation was aligned on the path we need to take. They have truly empowered us to overcome our IT challenges and positioned us for future growth opportunities. Their expertise, professionalism and commitment to our success have been exceptional." – Ashley Cranny, Chief Information Officer, SRT Logistics Pty Ltd.
