Strategic Priorities 2022/23

It’s that time of the year we begin to review our strategic direction and begin the process of developing an Annual Budget.

As we move from the uncertainty around the pandemic, we are confronted with the possibility of a world war, ever changing climate, a booming housing market and inflation about to rise – I think the notion of “business as usual “is an historical concept!

We have completely reviewed the business throughout the pandemic moving many of our services to a digital format and will continue this with the revision and extension of our IT Digital First Strategy.

ProjectWorks – Associate Invoicing

Brayden Dixon – Assistant Accountant

I would like to thank all associates for the successful transition to online timesheet and expense logging through ProjectWorks. It’s been great to hear feedback from many of you that assists to improve our processes.

One of the areas yet to be improved is the lack of a notification system ProjectWorks has yet to implement.

Because we follow a monthly invoicing process, I would ask that all associates please notify me through email that you have made timesheet and expense entries on the last day of that month in which you have been working. This will allow me to send a recipient created invoice to those of you that have notified me first that you may have only worked until the middle of the month.

Asset Plans (Victoria)

Alf Della Monica – Regional Manager VIC/TAS

Many of you are aware of the implementation of the Local Government Act 2020 in Victoria. A key change is the requirement of Councils to adopt a 10-year Asset Plan by 30 June 2022. Together with our experienced Associates in this area, CT Management Group’s integrated approach to preparing 10-year Asset Plans provides the opportunity to develop an Asset Plan that is driven by services.

CTMG Associates are providing their expertise in this area as Council’s struggle with resourcing and capability in this area.

To date we have worked or are currently working with a number of councils including Monash, Mansfield, Alpine Shire, Frankston, Darebin, Ballarat and Mornington Peninsula.
