The State of South Australia is a key location for sustainable business and has many advantages over other Australian cities

Competitive business location costs

Labour Costs – South Australian full time labour costs are 6 per cent below the Australian average and below all mainland capital cities.

Property Prices – Adelaide’s residential, commercial and industrial property prices are amongst the lowest of Australia’s mainland capital cities.

Location

Adelaide, the capital city of South Australia has been voted the fifth most liveable city in the world making it an ideal location for attracting a sustainable workforce.

South Australia is also located at the centre of Australia’s air, road and rail networks – with Adelaide Airport named Australia's fastest growing airport for international services.

The South Australian time zone (Greenwich Mean Time +9.30 hours, or +10.30 during Daylight Savings time) is within two hours of major Asia Pacific centres.

A Government open for business

The South Australian Government is pro investment, supporting business including:

• Direct access to key government decision-makers.

• A Coordinator-General has recently been appointed to help stimulate private sector investment for projects with a construction value in excess of $3 million. A Case Manager is appointed for each project to help streamline and support the approvals processes.

• An ambitious and successful red tape reduction program.

ICT in South Australia

South Australia’s ICT industry is worth billions and experiencing sustained growth.

Closely linked to South Australia’s expertise in defence, manufacturing, research and education, minerals and energy and health, the state’s 1,100 ICT businesses provide global companies with innovative products and services in a wide range of specialist areas.

KPMG’s Competitive Alternatives 2014 found Adelaide to be Australia’s most cost-competitive city for digital services (software development, video game production) and corporate services (shared services centres, international financial services).

The Hays 2014 Salary Guide indicates South Australia as having the lowest cost wage expense across the Australian capital cities for numerous contact centre and IT jobs.

Digital Services Corporate Services

Digital disruption is about a fast transformation of our existing way of life due to the advancement of digital technologies. It is a threat to old ways of doing things but an also opportunity for innovation; a better way of doing all things, including to work, play, shop, and entertain.

A recent report by Deloitte and the South Australian Government Office of the Chief Information Officer provides useful recommendations to small and medium businesses

(SMES) in order to deal with and take advantage of the digital disruption, and get ahead of the curve by harnessing new digital innovation.

The report outlines the significant opportunity for ICT businesses to collaborate with the growing start up community, innovative SMEs and specialised ICT corporates based in South Australia to respond to the upcoming challenges.

South Australian ICT Strategy

South Australia Connected

The South Australian Government has recently released its ICT strategy South Australia Connected.

The purpose of South Australia Connected is to set a strategic direction for the use of ICT services within the South Australian Government. The strategy is characterised by a number of high-level ‘From – To’ statements, indicating where we want to go. Through the alignment of our decisions and activities the government will move towards its goal of making South Australia connected and ready for the future.

6 Government of South Australia ICT in South Australia

Our goal is to better connect the people of South Australia with the things they want and need, when and where they need them.

The strategic directionThese are directional statements. They show, in overview, the strategic direction for the Government of South Australia.

These statements have been designed to encapsulate the direction that government will go, simply and succinctly. Each ‘From To’ statement has been provided to show what will change by articulating a shift in focus, or the move to an improved level of maturity.

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 high‑level. 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.

2 South Australia Connected

Government is in the connections business. Everything we do ultimately comes down to better connecting the people of South Australia with the things they want and need, when and where they need them. Whether we are connecting a pensioner with a concession, a sick person with medical care, or a car owner with a self‑serve registration renewal, we are serving the people of South Australia. This is our goal – to better serve South Australians by making, improving, and enabling connections.

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 we’ve got, and deliver better outcomes for our state.

ICT is now part of everyone’s job. It underpins our everyday activities, but it also underpins the high‑level directions the South Australian Government has for the state and the public sector, such as South Australia’s 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.

South Australia Connected [SA Connected] is the South Australian Government’s 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.

The purpose of SA Connected is not to introduce additional burdens; its purpose is to help government continue to go about its business and work towards our objectives in a strategic way. SA Connected outlines six perspectives as a way to focus our energies, and provide some clarity through the complexity of government. By setting the strategic direction for government and assisting agencies to align their decisions and activities with this direction, SA Connected will keep us moving, ‘steady as she goes’, in the right direction.

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.

ICT won’t 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.
