The complexity of successfully delivering technology projects: NSW Audit Office Report on Justice 2017

Technology projects, and the complexity around successfully implementing major technology projects in the public and private sectors, continue to feature. Here is one recent example:

The NSW Audit Office issued its 2017 report on the law and order, and emergency services agencies to Parliament on 28 November 2017. The report focuses on key observations and findings from the most recent audits of agencies in the Justice cluster. No qualified audit opinions were issued on Justice agencies' financial statements. However, agencies that used the Department of Justice as their service provider experienced difficulties finalising their accounts - due to issues with the Department implementing a new financial accounting and reporting system and the continued establishment of its Business Support Centre.
