Develop a roadmap for getting from where we are today to our desired end state - packaged, categorised items, clear value outcomes with clarity on investment needed (capital and resource).

Maintain alignment between individual projects and the broader organisational strategy while ensuring that technology decisions are well-informed and supportive of long-term goals.
