ICTSAS601 Implement change management processes Student Assessment Tasks
Deliva are a parcel courier service based in Sydney. Established in 2010, they have been finding it difficult
to stay ahead in the crowded Sydney courier environment. In order to remain technologically competitive,
Deliva has committed to an online booking and tracking system that is focused on optimal delivery and
automated customer interaction.
Currently, all parcel pick-ups and deliveries are ordered by telephone, with a call centre of three staff co-
ordinating the orders and deliveries. Through an online portal, customers can have parcels collected from
any address delivered to any destination in the Sydney metropolitan area.
With the new system, customers will use an online portal, either with their computer or mobile telephone.
Their booking will be automatically directed to the most appropriate vehicle, which may be a bicycle,
motorbike or van. The courier will receive the booking on their handheld device, and the most efficient route
should be given on their device’s GPS.
In the meantime, the customer should see who will be making the pick-up, where the courier is currently,
and how long it should take until they arrive.
Once a parcel has been collected, the customer is provided with real time tracking of their parcel on their
device. The interactive mapping technology allows customers to zoom, pan, and focus on couriers to street
level without refreshing the whole web page. They can watch their parcel’s position as it is being delivered,
and when the parcel arrives, a delivery confirmation e-mail is sent within seconds.
Each of the (currently 24) couriers is to be given a handheld computer which shows bookings as they are
made and the best route to the next address.
Couriers can be assessed by the customers and will be rewarded with bonuses for consistent, high quality
service.
Over the long term, data should be collected so that analysis of the performance of individual couriers, and
the preferences of individual customers, can be performed.
As the General Manager, you have been asked to lead the development and implementation of the change
management plan for this project. You will be communicating directly with the CEO on this project.
The project has been allocated $50,000, which should cover both the hardware and the software required. It
is expected that the new system will be completely functional within 12 months of the project’s kick-off.
One of their ongoing issues for the company has been couriers taking unscheduled and unreported “time
off” during their shift, which has been virtually impossible to monitor. It is clear that a change in culture
among the couriers is going to be necessary if the company is to succeed, and it is hoped that the new
technology will support this.

The purpose of the presentation is to ensure that management and employees are fully
informed and have the opportunity to contribute to the change management process.
During the presentation, allow for some time when participants have the opportunity for input, as
this will facilitate their acceptance of the changes.
Your presentation should include graphics such as images, charts and tables.
You must develop the required number of slides to support a presentation of about 30 minutes.
The text of your email should also include what liaison methods would be appropriate in the
case study information.

further change management ideas at the end of the session.

management process.
You must provide comprehensive information, outlining the coming changes to assist staff in
accepting the changes. You must also provide the opportunity for their input, which will also
facilitate their acceptance of change.
Keep in mind that there have been accusations of courier dishonesty over the past few years:
drivers stopping somewhere for an unscheduled break, for instance. The new system will mean
that this will be monitored in the future, and some couriers may be hostile to these changes for
this reason.
Your assessor will roleplay a staff member who is upset with the changes, and you will be
expected to respond to that staff member using effective communication and problem-solving
skills.
At the conclusion of your presentation, seek feedback from staff and management on the
changes that will be implemented for Deliva.
Ask them for their ideas to inform your change management plan and take notes on this
feedback.

It is three months since the project was satisfactorily completed, on time and to budget.
Although about 20% of existing customers still prefer to use the old system of telephoning in a parcel pick-
up and delivery, the vast majority of Deliva’s customers are pleased with the system’s interface and have
given very positive feedback.
The reduction in telephone ordering has meant that the call centre could be cut back to one person (who just
transfers the information to the system’s online portal).
Four couriers (out of 24) refused to learn how to operate the new system and left the company. Their
positions were quickly filled by experienced couriers who expressed an interest in adopting new technology.
All remaining staff have adopted the new system. Informal feedback has shown that they much prefer
working with the new system that the old one, and that they are satisfied with the amount of training that
they received.
The new system has made the couriers more efficient with their deliveries due to the integrated navigation
system and their inability to take unreported “time off”.
A 25% increase in orders has already meant that more couriers will have to be hired soon. This will also
increase the number of delivery vehicles required and create other logistical issues that are common in a
growing company.
Review the change management objectives as set out in your Change Management Plan.
Evaluate the effectiveness of the change management process in achieving the objectives and
provide recommendations for improving this.
This should include any recommended changes to the change management plan template
and/or the Change Management Policy and Procedures. You are expected to find at least one
suggested improvement to each of these documents.
