Telstra transforms IT, business collaboration

Telstra has adopted the agile methodology in its approach to IT and software development, in response to internal feedback from the telco's $11.9 billion transformation, writes ITNews.

The new approach is expected to enhance collaboration on projects between IT and the business units and "see projects delivered faster and benefits realised sooner", according to chief operating officer Michael Rocca.

"Starting immediately, the IT team will change the way it delivers IT capability and engages with the rest of the business," he says.
