Introduction
Overview
Purpose
Information and Communications Technology [ICT] helps us achieve this goal because
it amplifies our ability to connect. These days, ICT is everywhere and in everything. It is
part of our lives more than ever before, and government, like the rest of the modern
economy, is reliant on the smooth, uninterrupted operation of its ICT. We will not ignore
the enhanced role that ICT has in the business of government; instead, we will embrace
it to get the most out of what weve got, and deliver better outcomes for our state.
ICT is now part of everyones job. It underpins our everyday activities, but it also
underpins the highlevel directions the South Australian Government has for the
state and the public sector, such as South Australias Strategic Plan, our Seven Strategic
Priorities, and Change@SouthAustralia ICT makes each of these more effective and it
is an important enabler in their development, consultation, and implementation. Just
as these initiatives assist us to be strategic in the way we work, our use of ICT must
also be strategic and purposeful if we are to better serve the people of South Australia.
Goal
South Australia Connected [SA Connected] is the South Australian Governments ICT
Strategy. While we achieved much with our last ICT strategy, Ask Just Once, we are
determined to go further and have even more of an impact increasing the number,
capacity, and richness of our connections improving the services we deliver to the
citizens of South Australia. SA Connected sets the direction for us to do this keeping
service to citizens at the centre of what we do.

ICT wont remain static in the future, and neither will our strategy; it will be digital by
default and live online at www.sa.gov.au/saconnected adapting as we need it to,
under the governance of the ICT Board. ICT is central to the way our public service
will go about its work, but it is not just our ICT professionals who will prepare us for
the unpredictable, but inevitable challenges we will face in the future SA Connected
will be implemented by all of us, working together. Together we will expand our
vision of what ICT can do for the future of our state, and most importantly, put it
into practice. I encourage you all to consider what part you can play to make South
Australia connected, ready for the future.

The South Australian Government is well positioned to make the most of what the
information age has to offer. We are big enough to be good, and small enough to
be great we have people with the skills, drive, and experience to lead us into the
future. We will build on our strong partnerships with industry and the community
to enable us to work more collaboratively, and have more meaningful and early
engagement. We are fast followers, and when new opportunities arise, we build on
them to take good ideas and put them to work.

For example, when we say that we are moving from Robust ICT
governance to Integrated governance, we do not mean that
our ICT governance will no longer be robust, we simply mean
that we are making a deliberate choice to move beyond this
level of maturity, to improve our governance arrangements.
These statements are designed to be brief and highlevel. The
detail required for agencies to align with these statements will
be provided in the other parts of the strategy, available from
www.sa.gov.au/saconnected.

Strategic Direction
From now on, were not going to start up any more big ICT
projects. Were only going to have business change initiatives.
We know that large projects run a higher risk of failure. We will
break these down into smaller segments, with welldefined exit
strategies that ensure that were not locked into spending more
time and money to continue projects that arent working. Well
still have big plans, but projects will be shorter, and they will be
planned and delivered by multidisciplinary teams, not just IT.

Shared value
Every day, agencies create and use all sorts of data in the
course of doing business. This data, if shared more widely,
could generate immense value for our state. The challenge is
where to make a start?
We will work with our partners to identify those potential
highvalue data sets and make them widely available so that
experts and entrepreneurs can work together to explore the
potential for creating new services and unleash the economic
value of the data we hold.
