The Case Management System was part of an investment program of $1.9 billion, which contributed to the courts’ response and recommendations to the Royal Commission into Family Violence. The benefits aimed to deliver greater automation of systems, processes and improve information sharing with authorised external agencies.
Due to the significant changes impacting the future operating model and strong internal change resistance, previous attempts to deliver reform had been unsuccessful.
Our team was engaged to deliver Organisational Change Management services as part of Court Service Vicotoria’s digital transformation journey. The courts had not experienced change on this scale before.
As part of a joint initiative, our team was required to bring together internal and external stakeholders which included, the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria, Children’s Court of Victoria, Court Services Victoria, Victoria Police, Corrections Victoria, Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services.
