Friday 11 December 2020: Evolving Transport News
In every edition you will hear news and key updates from across the 13 workstreams that make up our program of transformation. You can also stay up-to-date with the latest information on each of the workstream intranet pages.
Changes in Equip
From Friday 18 December, there will be changes to how we operate in Equip and we need to temporarily stop using certain functions and processes to merge the TfNSW and the former RMS as one which will include combining our financial and reporting systems. This is referred to as the ‘cutover’.
This means that you may need to use alternative ways to complete tasks.
While there will be minor changes to some processes from late December the majority of work will take place in January and February 2021 with no access to Equip on 1-13 February 2021. These temporary impacts are to TfNSW and former RMS users.
However, there will be two weekends where the whole of Transport (including agencies) will not be able to use Equip. These dates are 30-31 January and 6-7 February 2021.
Find out what you need to do on the Changes in Equip page.
Let’s celebrate our recent milestones
Our workstreams have been working hard to complete their commitments by the end of the year. Some of them include progressing the 65 bright ideas on financial sustainability, establishing a Talent Diversity Champions Group, and also collecting real-time fire reports from the NSW Rural Fire Service to keep our customers safe.
Have a look and find out more about each of the milestones.
Over 9500 pieces of feedback for the Group A and B branch consultations
Thank you for submitting your feedback throughout consultation. The majority of the feedback was related to these three areas:
- 64 per cent was about proposed structures
- 14 per cent was about your personal impact
- 12 per cent was about recruitment and filling roles
A reminder that official consultation has now closed for all branches this year, but if you have further questions about branch structures please contact your manager or branch leader directly.
Branches that were formerly part of Group C of Evolving Transport will be consulted on their proposed structures next year as part of the Corporate Functions Review Program.
Focus on diversity and inclusion
Our Talent, Development and Mobility Workstream has been working hard to meet our diversity and inclusion program commitments. A Talent Diversity Champions Group has been set up to continue to drive the conversation in Transport and roll out key initiatives.
Find out more on this group, what they’re doing, and who the champions are on the Talent, Development and Mobility Workstream page.
Update on Financial Sustainability: delivering on bright ideas
The Financial Sustainability Workstream (FS) received more than 65 ideas as part of the Bright Ideas Innovation Fund challenge, and has started to progress the top ideas to the funding stage.
These ideas will help us deliver on our FS objectives so we can afford to invest in the right things for our customers, communities, and the people of Transport with less reliance on taxpayer subsidies.
More updates on this in the New Year.
