Strategy & Roadmaps
Over the years Voco has had the privilege to work with many organisations on developing their IT roadmaps and business strategies.
A structured process
When we're asked to help shape an IT strategy or roadmap our team follow a structured process. This typically starts by understanding your current state, defining the problem, and agreeing your objectives and desired outcomes. We'll then explore design principles and industry trends before aligning on your strategic priorities. We'll often map out different user journeys for different personas, and use this to inform a conceptual target state architecture.
Our Method
The methodology used to define our strategy & roadmap is as below.
Understand the direction

Define the target and roadmap

Some of our recent work
Over the past couple of years we've helped Health New Zealand shape their National Digital Workplace Strategy, and the Ministry of Health design the future state for Identity and Access Management. We supported Greater Wellington Council develop their 2023 ICT strategy, and Hamilton City Council with their Digital Hamilton strategy. And there have been many more. It's a privilege to help shape the future of IT for government departments and council teams that have such a significant impact on New Zealand communities.
