In January 2010, the company tasked with building Australia’s National Broadband Network, NBN Co, employed fewer than 50 staff.
Before construction pilots could start, the company needed the ability to manage complex finance, procurement and project management activities.
Expanding the company presented a number of challenges:
- The sheer number of staff that needed to be recruited.
- Developing the systems and processes to support these staff
NBN Co turned to Accenture for help. As a recognised leader in outsourced HR, Accenture was able to quickly position NBN Co with the critical capabilities.
