22 April 2020 – Assessment of Coronavirus impacts to the ET Program and Org Structure update

To make sure we can continue to deliver the Evolving Transport Program during these times, the Transformation Office has done an assessment of the Program to evaluate Coronavirus impacts.

The good news:

• Most workstreams only have minor impacts, meaning work continues as we pivot to an online approach and address resourcing impacts from Coronavirus.
• There are opportunities to accelerate delivery in some workstreams, such as Leadership, Culture and Behaviours; we’re going to keep looking for these opportunities.
• Pausing Organisational Structure is giving us time to reflect on what we’ve learnt so far and better embed our operating model – this is helping us to formulate an approach to fast-track branch design in key areas.
• Some Executive recruitment is being finalised and interim structures are progressing to ensure branches can function effectively in the interim.

Work to adapt our approach to Organisational Structure continues this week, including conversations with Dep Secs to work through some critical components such as timeframes. More to come soon about next steps and what this means for your branch.

You can see here the assessment of Coronavirus impacts on the ET Program. It’s important during this time we keep progressing with all the great work happening in the Evolving Transport Program, as we find new ways of doing things.
