UCL is increasingly seen as an innovator and leader in this sector. The award has been earned for theconcerted work of the CIO Leadership, delivery and service team members, and change partners across UCL.

At the heart of the submission was the transformation of ISD from technology supplier to digital partner. Four key shifts have been delivered aligned to the Agile principles:

  • Product over Project
  • Experience over Technology
  • Empowerment over Control
  • Co-creator over Order taker

 Sophie Harrison (Director of Agile Product Delivery) said "I am very pleased for everyone to get the recognition they deserve in winning the award for the UCL Agile Transformation.  Well done everyone in ISD, Advanced Research Computing (ARC), Change & Improvement, and all our brilliant product owners and stakeholders from across UCL. Transformation can be hard and only works when everyone pushes in the same direction. In our case we've had 500+ people all moving together and we've been able to make a lot of progress quickly. Thank you all"

On 3 May ʼһill be bringing the sector together in an to create a movement focused on adopting a scaled agile approach to delivering change in a university setting. And for UCL itself, the next stage will be the engagement and consultation on an evolved Digital Strategy for UCL aligned to the Strategic plan.
