just AT but multiple external parties that are required to collaborate,
federate and syndicate documents and information in a consistent,

met though advanced process enablement
The Context:
Auckland Transport (AT) is required to deliver several large scale multi-
billion dollar roading and transport infrastructure projects across the
Auckland region over the next 30 years. A significant process and
subsequent risk associated with the cost and schedule of these projects is
the acquisition of land and properties impacted by the construction and
commissioning of new infrastructure.
The Challenge:
The Property Acquisition process:
• Is complex and demanding taking up to 8 months to complete, involving
multiple properties, interested parties and stakeholders including
communities and special interest groups impacted and who must be
consulted and informed.
• Must comply with complex legislative and legal process with demanding
requirements pertaining to managing the end-to-end property
acquisition process.
• Must be managed within a complex set project interdependencies that
impact project delivery timeframes, costs, and contractual obligations.
• Lack of a system to manage the end-to-end process to enable
transparency, compliance and risks associated with each acquisition
including financial, schedule, legal and reputational.
• Has complex requirements pertaining to process collaboration across
parties, document management, compliance, audibility and reporting, as
well as driving consistency across all acquisitions.

well as integration with project records, support for comprehensive monitoring and reporting, as
well as formal workflows and checklists aligned to legislative and compliance requirements.

Hamilton City Council (HCC) together with Rotorua District Council (RDC) have, as
part of their customer engagement programmes, undertaken a joint shared
services initiative to establish and leverage digital channels as a primary channel to

• Increasing demand and expectation of customers to do business and transact
with council online in a safe and secure manner;
• A need for local government to deliver more with less including enhanced service
delivery;
• Increasing expectations for local government organisations to collaborate more
to achieve more productive and sustainable service delivery models though

sources need to be formally captured and managed to an outcome.
• Stormwater capital and renewal projects need to be identified, registered,
scoped, approved, prioritised, and programmed for delivery as part of a
consolidated project portfolio spanning a 35 year view.
• The end-to-end tracking of project outcomes across the whole project
life-cycle and multiple teams is required including integration between
‘portfolio projects’ and ‘delivery projects’.

as opposed to a robust systems and consolidated database.

organization.
The Context:
Auckland Transport (AT) is responsible for the ongoing development,
delivery and operation of a ‘single integrated transport system’ for the
Auckland Region as highlighted within the 2012 – 2041 Integrated Transport
Programme (ITP). Innovation is recognised as a key part towards achieving
this mandate. This requires an organisation wide culture and approach
underpinned by a tool set to foster and enable innovation to be undertaken.
The Challenge:
• There has been little or no formal visibility of ideas and opportunities for
innovation across AT. As a result any opportunities that were informally
identified often got lost with little or no accountability in place as far as
managing these to an outcome.
• Across the organisation and business, operational management has not
been held to account in terms of acting on and driving business
improvement / transformation beyond the day to day ‘business as usual’.
As a result opportunities and ideas raised by staff, partners, customers
and others are not acted upon.
The Brief:
To design, develop and implement an Innovation Portal solution leveraging
existing technology investments in SharePoint to:
• Enable the registration, management and tracking of Innovation
Opportunities and Ideas across the organisation as part of a consolidated
Innovation Register.
• Provide the capability to collaborate on specific ideas and opportunities
progressed through to an Innovation Lifecycle and beyond.
• Provide Dashboards and Reports to supporting the governance of the
innovation process. “For thought leadership and rock solid delivery, I look to LeapThought”
