Yarra Ranges Council embraces SaaS

Victoria’s Yarra Ranges Shire Council has selected TechnologyOne as its technology partner for the next five years.

Under the agreement, the council will replace its legacy billing and revenue, asset management and payroll systems with TechnologyOne’s OneCouncil solution, delivered under a software-as-a-service model.

The OneCouncil SaaS solution has been developed specifically for local government, and is used extensively across Australia. TechnologyOne boasts that more than 73% of the Australian and New Zealand population live in a council powered by TechnologyOne.

The deployment will allow the council to provide residents with a modern online platform and consistent user interface across council services.

Yarra Ranges CEO Tammi Rose said the agreement builds on the council’s longstanding existing relationship with TechnologyOne.

“Adopting the OneCouncil solution will integrate our billing, asset and payroll data with our existing TechnologyOne software, streamlining our operations and delivering a single source of truth,” she said.

“Moving to Software as a Service will remove the complexity of running and updating our software and infrastructure as TechnologyOne will take care of this for us. This simplified approach will allow us to become more efficient, more agile and draw upon real-time information with ease.”
