Aviation Sector: Air New Zealand

With 100-plus IT projects on the go, Air New Zealand’s Project Management Office (PMO) was struggling to control a program of projects increasing in complexity and number by the day.

With no way to see what was happening across the program, or to red-flag critical risks and issues, the PMO team knew that good governance demanded a better solution.

Utilities Sector: Genesis Energy

How do you cut the costs of delivering power and improve your customer service at the same time? And how do you manage this on multiple projects with multiple teams, suppliers and contractors working out of Auckland, Hamilton and Huntly? Now try seeing inside a project and getting a big picture view of what is happening across a program of projects – and throw into the mix some clunky, manual tools like spreadsheets and Gantt charts…

Genesis Energy had a problem. iTools Control had the answer. Find out more

Consumer Goods: Fonterra

With over 20,000 staff scattered across 108 locations in New Zealand and around the world, managing risks and issues was a sore point for Fonterra’s Project Management Office (PMO). They were frustrated by the inconsistent use of spreadsheets to register risks and issues, making reporting near impossible. The information that could be gleaned was often out-of-date or incomplete. What’s more, they knew the real danger lay in not being able to see the more critical risks, or where these risks would come from.

FMCG Sector: Progressive Enterprises

In the last five years, Progressive doubled its size, and what had worked previously for a $2 billion business was no longer working for a $4 billion business. On the IT side, there was no IT architecture, no Projects Office, and no way of seeing a helicopter-view of what was going on. The challenge was creating a visible IT architecture that aligned the IT strategy with the business to continually improve the customer experience. With IT initiatives increasingly driving business – such as online shopping and loyalty schemes – the other challenge was how to deliver more within the same budget.

Education Sector: Auckland University of Technology

Auckland University of Technology (AUT) set an ambitious goal - to instil a project management approach and culture from a blank slate. With only email and common directories for sharing information, it was hard to (a) track projects, (b) identify problems and risks that needed attention, and (c) report to stakeholders on what was happening.

What AUT needed was a web-based project tool with smart dashboard reporting – a tool that would realise such immediate value that senior managers would demand it be used everywhere.
