About the Client and NPP

Australia’s central bank, in collaboration with the nation’s leading financial institutions, embarked on an ambitious initiative to revolutionise electronic payments. The goal was to enable real-time, data-rich transactions, representing a significant technological and operational shift for the banking industry. Facing a complex multi-stakeholder environment and the risk of missing critical deadlines, the NPP program turned to BTP, specialists in process automation and digital transformation, to provide pivotal solution design and implementation support.

The Challenge: Multi-Stakeholder Alignment in a High-Stakes Environment

The NPP program assembled a large team of technology experts, each with specialised domain expertise. However, this siloed approach resulted in a lack of cohesive process understanding and solution design, jeopardising the project’s ability to meet industry milestones. The program struggled to integrate the intricate case management requirements of the NPP with the underlying technology infrastructure components, including workflow, integration layer, message protocols, and business rules engines.

BTP's Approach: Bridging the Gap Between Business and Technology

Recognising the need for a unifying force, the central bank engaged BTP for our proven ability to align business requirements with technological solutions. Our methodology centred on:

1. Facilitating process discovery workshops
2. Aligning multi-disciplined teams
3. Translating business needs into comprehensive solution designs

BTP led the realignment of technical and business teams, fostering a shared understanding of the NPP’s processes and objectives. We conducted extensive process design workshops, identifying epic user stories and facilitating the translation of requirements into actionable and cohesive series of design and build activities.

Our expertise in Digital Business Automation proved invaluable as we:

  • Defined integration methodologies
  • Segregated responsibilities across products
  • Seamlessly integrated workflow and rule engines with the program’s DevOps practices

 

Moreover, our rapid acquisition of domain knowledge and ability to lead an Executive showcase for an integrated proof-of-concept early in the project instilled confidence in the business stakeholders, cementing our position as a trusted partner and leading to the approval of necessary funding.
