In 2021 commenced partnering with The Treasury to undertake benefits and evaluation engagements for two very major government policy initiatives. These engagements have provided Treasury with the approaches to successfully understand and express the achievement of policy outcomes in measurable terms. Expressing policy in outcome terms and representing the link of policy initiatives to desired outcomes has assisted Treasury to define success for those policies.
Over the 10 years of partnership with the ATO, VMC assisted to introduce and raise the ATO’s level
of competency in benefits realisation, portfolio management and value governance. Our work extended beyond assisting with defining benefits for specific digital transformation change initiatives, to building and sustaining capability. VMC supported the development of value
propositions for numerous business cases for both agency and cross agency change initiatives.
Further, VMC provided staff development and executive awareness in value management thinking
and disciplines.

This has assisted the understanding and prioritisation of the foundational and change initiatives necessary to deliver the health research outcomes.
