Success Stories

Real examples of how this service has helped organisations find their ideal Business Analyst professionals.

  • Higher Education

    Establishing a BA Practice

    Digital transformation across the institution lacked consistent business analysis, causing rework and misalignment between projects. We established and led a university-wide BA framework, introduced shared tools, templates and mentoring, and worked with the PMO and IT leadership to keep delivery aligned. Stakeholder confidence rose and the BA maturity uplift was recognised in audits.

    Enterprise BA Framework

    Student, research, HR and finance transformation workstreams each ran their own business analysis approach, driving rework. We designed an enterprise BA framework, defined standard artefacts and role definitions, engaged executives and sponsors, and stood up a BA Centre of Excellence to coach the teams.

    Infrastructure Modernisation Programme

    Legacy infrastructure was raising operational risk and cost. We led the business analysis stream across multiple workstreams, aligned senior stakeholders, mentored the BA team, and kept clear traceability from business need to technology — supporting a steadier, more scalable platform.

    Student Management System Implementation

    The institution needed to implement a new student management system. We led the BA team, ran cross-departmental workshops, set up a clear requirements framework, and kept executives engaged throughout. The system landed on time with materially less manual effort and better data accuracy.

    Research Ethics Platform

    A manual, fragmented research ethics process was causing delays and compliance risk. We brought research, legal, IT and governance teams together, unified the workflows and business rules, and guided platform selection — cutting approval times and improving the researcher experience.

    HR Systems Transformation

    Disjointed HR systems were creating inefficiencies and a poor employee experience. We led the process redesign and change-impact assessments, and coordinated training and communications with the HR and IT teams — lifting adoption and workforce data accuracy.

    Student Admin Business Improvement (SABI)

    A major student-administration programme needed clear strategic alignment between business objectives and technical delivery. We provided advisory input to the steering committee and brought clarity to the dependencies and sequencing for a cloud migration, keeping business and IT outcomes aligned.

    Research Systems Advisory

    The institution needed a consistent approach to research ethics across the university. We advised the DVC (Research) and the governance board, mapping the research ethics systems across 15 faculties and the central research office to unify processes and strengthen data governance.
