The Government of Australia gets a strategy for maintaining and migrating healthcare IT systems.
Opportunity
Legacy systems still run most public sector IT operations, but greater computing demands on outdated technology can quickly turn a legacy system into a liability.
ISG was engaged by the Department of Human Services (DHS) for the Government of Australia to deliver a sourcing strategy that would support its Medicare and related health systems through to retirement and implement replacements.
Imagining IT Differently
ISG designed a sourcing strategy that allowed the government to successfully manage its existing Medicare IT system while moving resources to new technology for the replacement health-related IT systems.
Future Made Possible
- A sourcing option that enables the progressive development of new systems
- Harmonious transition of the DHS information and key IT personnel from the existing ADM teams
