Infosys recently announced the successful completion of the technology landscape separation program of the Australian express logistics business, Team Global Express.
More than 300 applications were migrated to the new environment with zero business impact to its 4,000 plus users including applications and network integration of over 100 sites.
The project included a revamp of the technology framework, prioritising a cloud-centric strategy to mitigate inherited technical burdens from the parent company.
During the transition, 70% of applications were seamlessly shifted to the cloud, leveraging its advantages and establishing a robust, adaptable foundation for forthcoming digital advancements.
The effort not only decreased overall risk by fortifying infrastructure and security measures but also notably enhanced employee satisfaction by minimising disruptions and boosting operational efficiency.
As the lead systems integrator, Infosys managed the program end-to-end, enabling Team Global Express’ transport and logistics business to deliver exceptional customer service.
Infosys’ solution is a ‘Separate First and Transform Later’ strategy to align on-time separation without any impact ensuring operational stabilisation (operational journey transition from build to operate).
Infosys, with Team Global Express, won the 2024 ISG Paragon Award ANZ in gold category for this successful transformation program.
Danny Gravell, CIO of Team Global Express, said, “Our partnership with Infosys enabled us to successfully set up an independent technology capability and transform our foundation technology platforms,”
“We value Infosys’ thought leadership, collaborative approach, and experience in implementing infrastructure and cloud transformation programs as a true strategic partner,” said Gravell
“By using the ready-to-use templates from Infosys Cobalt, we could complete the transformation at speed with maximum efficiency. This program has enabled us to work towards providing the best possible experience for our customers.” he said.
“The separation program for Team Global Express presented a unique opportunity to achieve significant value,” says Infosys Executive Vice President & Global Head of Consumer, Retail & Logistics Karmesh Vaswan
“This complex program challenged us to not only accomplish the separation on-time and without business disruption, but also seamlessly establish a modern, secure and scalable digital foundation to accelerate their future growth,”
“Leveraging our proven Infosys Cobalt cloud ecosystem and through a collaborative partnership with Team Global Express, we successfully navigated the complexities of this program, achieving an outcome that ranks among our most impactful engagements in the Australia and New Zealand region” said Vaswan.
Despite the complex logistics landscape, the project was delivered on time without any operational or business impact, showcasing the productivity and efficiency gains from a cloud-first approach in the transport and logistics sector.
