Name of assignment or project: Land Port Modernisation for Bangladesh Land Port Authority (BLPA) as a component of the Regional Connectivity Programme of Work Year: 2016 Location: Dacca, Bangladesh Client: World Bank Main project features: World Bank was in the process of preparing the documentation for various procurement packages to assist Govt. of Bangladesh Regional Connectivity of which the National Single Window and the Land Port Modernisation are two major components. Positions held: Subject Matter Expert Activities performed: Complete a full review and analysis of the business needs, determine the ICT architecture that would effectively support the business needs, prepare detailed technical specifications of ICT requirements, have these reviewed and confirmed by key stakeholders and integrate these requirements into a 2-stage bid document to be used for tender. Prepare terms of reference for all supporting consulting engagements, primarily business process improvement, change management and project management and quality assurance. Prepare owner estimates for all implementation projects including COTS solutions. Govt. of Bangladesh has 22 land ports of which 10 are currently operational and 5 of these are operated by private operators. Most of the Land Ports are on the India border and all trade with Nepal and Bhutan also passes through these Land Ports. India, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan have recently signed a number of agreements to improve trade and traffic transition arrangements through Bangladesh. This requires that all Land Ports within Bangladesh are modernised with suitable ICT solutions to improve throughput and operating efficiency of each of the Land Ports. This requires systems for traffic management, passenger management, goods warehousing and integration of inspection of goods by multiple government agencies. The Land Port modernisation initiative seeks to improve the overall operating efficiency of all Land Ports, improve governance from the head office and align all policies, procedures and standards with the operations of all sea ports and river water ports also to enable multi-modal freight as well as road and passenger traffic that is expected to increase multi-fold in the coming years. Sanjay was the Lead Consultant to finalise the modernisation plans, business requirements and the procurement plan for Land Ports modernisation Name of assignment or project: Modernisation of State Statistical Committee (SSC) of the Republic of Azerbaijan Year: 2015 Location: Baku, Azerbaijan Client: Govt. of Azerbaijan through the SSC Main project features: World Bank funded project for the modernisation and improved integrity and accuracy of the official statistics for the Govt. of Azerbaijan. Required the preparation of the overall modernisation plan that would then be followed up with the necessary finalisation of loans and grants for funding of corresponding packages of work

Positions held: Lead Consultant Activities performed: Complete a full review and analysis of the current operation for official statistics within Azerbaijan, identify areas of improvement, define logical components of work for improvement such that these can be progressed into a structured programme of work. The baseline for assessing existing organisation for and preparation of official statistics was the United Nations (UN) General Assembly Resolution 68/261 as adopted on 29 January 2014. Prepare terms of reference for all supporting consulting engagements, primarily business process improvement, change management and project management and quality assurance. Prepare owner estimates for all implementation projects. Sanjay applied the GSPBM (Generic Statistical Business Process Model), the GSIM, Generic Statistical Information Model and the CSPA (Common Statistical Production Architecture) methods to complete the study of existing operations for the State Statistical Committee (SSC). Key improvements to the business areas were identified and the associated ICT functional and technical requirements were developed. An overall modernisation plan for the SSC was defined with key initiatives scoped out. The ICT requirements were integrated into a 2-stage bidding document for later procurement and the modernisation plan progressed into a staged sequence of improvements for the business to make the production of official statistics more aligned with international standards and UN guidelines. Name of assignment or project: Introduction of National Single Window to facilitate international trade for Govt. of Bangladesh as a component of the Regional Connectivity Programme of Work Year: 2015 & 2016 Location: Dacca, Bangladesh Client: World Bank Main project features: World Bank was in the process of preparing the documentation for various procurement packages to assist Govt. of Bangladesh with implementation of a National Single Window (NSW) operation encompassing procurement of a complete ICT solution and infrastructure as well as setting up of an ICT operation specifically for the NSW Positions held: Subject Matter Expert Activities performed: Complete a full review and analysis of the business needs, determine the ICT architecture that would effectively support the business needs, prepare detailed technical specifications of ICT requirements, have these reviewed and confirmed by key stakeholders and integrate these requirements into a 2-stage bid document to be used for tender. Prepare terms of reference for all supporting consulting engagements, primarily business process improvement, change management and project management and quality assurance. Identify potential COTS solutions, and develop owner estimates for all implementation projects. Govt. of Bangladesh had a number of different ministries and agencies involved in providing a diverse set of licenses and approvals for imports and exports. Existing arrangements were not efficient and had a high cost of compliance from all traders, brokers and other agencies involved with international trade. This had undesired impact on the overall economy. Besides developing the technical ICT requirements and the 2-stage bid document, Sanjay also reviewed options for the establishment of the NSW operation and its associated ICT component. Various options were considered as to the structure and governance of the NSW operation and its relationship with other Govt. departments and agencies. Possibilities of a Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) for the ICT operation were also considered. NSW removes duplication of effort for submission of documents, streamlines the workflow for import/export activities and allows online access for all purposes in a

secured and efficient manner. It services the needs of a wide base of the user community from traders, brokers, and students or others seeking aggregated statistical information. Sanjay was engaged by the World Bank to assist the team through his experience in all NSW and associated ICT related matters. Name of assignment or project: Step-back Review of Change Management within Chorus Year: 2013 Location: Wellington, New Zealand Client: Chorus Main project features: Chorus has been established recently to manage, maintain and invest in telecommunications infrastructure that is utilised by a number of Retail Service Providers, including Telecom New Zealand, to provide value added telecom services to New Zealand users Positions held: Subject Matter Expert & Consultant Activities performed: Complete a full review and analysis of the change management process within Chorus. This involved developing a structured questionnaire to be used with internal and external stakeholders as well as a separate questionnaire for a survey of sample staff within Chorus. Carry out interviews with 35 internal and external stakeholders (external stakeholders being drawn from the service companies used by Chorus). Complete the information collection, from interviews and the integrate with the results from survey of staff, analyse the results, identify problem areas and recommend corrective actions. Chorus had been established recently through separation from Telecom New Zealand and was faced with an enormous task of completing the separation from Telecom New Zealand, meeting Government requirements for investment and roll-out of fibre infrastructure throughout New Zealand while meeting normal challenges faced by any large organisation. It had grown rapidly from an initial core of 250 people to more than 700 staff and was facing the pains of such rapid growth. Being a newly established enterprise, it did not have sufficient organisational maturity and was lacking in common standards across all operations as well as having to setup new functional areas from scratch e.g. human resources, finance etc.; such services had been earlier provided through the Telecom New Zealand operations. Sanjay was a key member of the team from Better Change that had been tasked to assist Chorus in doing a quick review of existing change within Chorus to assess how well was Chorus responding to the key driving factors (external & internal) and determine if it had sufficient capability and capacity to continue to undergo the volume of change that was anticipated. This was achieved through structured interviews with key internal & external stakeholders, a survey of sample staff from different functional areas and review of existing documentation. Information was collected on a wide set of topics covering Leadership, Collaboration within Chorus, existing capability and skills, methods and approach for delivering change as well as communications. Information so collected was aggregated, analysed and fed back to the stakeholders – all findings were accepted by Chorus and a portfolio of initiatives for immediate and medium/long term improvement was identified which was also accepted by Chorus. The project was completed in collaboration with the team assigned by Chorus, in a very short duration. Name of assignment or project: Programme Management & Quality Assurance (PMQA) for Implementation of Budget Planning, Execution & Treasury Systems Year: 2011 thru 2014 (with short break in 2013 for Chorus project) Location: Jakarta, Indonesia Client: Ministry of Finance – Government of Indonesia Main project features: Implementation of Oracle EBS and Hyperion

Ensure overall preparedness within the Ministry of Finance to work with and support the new systems. This involved development of owner estimates for a number of different initiatives including all COTS solutions for public financial management. Positions held: Senior Advisor & Programme Manager (single role) Activities performed: Lead a team of consultants to assist the client (Min of Fin) in ensuring ultimate success of the project through supplier management, controlling work outputs and deliverables and monitoring risks throughout the project. The Ministry of Finance (MoF) for the Government of Indonesia (GOI) was in the process of implementing Oracle EBS and Hyperion COTS solutions for their Budget Planning & Treasury needs. The project encompassed over 4,000 users across 200 offices of the Ministry of Finance as well as 78 Line Ministries of the GOI. This involved multiple suppliers, LG CNS for core solutions and PriceWaterhouse Coopers (PwC) for Change Management and Communications. Sanjay led a team of international consultants to provide an over-arching function of PMQA accountable for timely delivery of all activities and tasks as well as quality of all outputs and outcomes. This included development of bid documents, completion of procurement and included development and introduction of good project management practices and guidance to client staff in adherence and compliance with such practices. It also involved monitoring of contract compliance from all sides. This was a very challenging assignment since the role of PMQA did not have a direct mandate but the client (MoF) was still heavily dependent upon the work done by the PMQA Team. Where required, Sanjay also provided necessary input as a subject matter expert in the areas of change managements, IT planning as well as developing new methods and approaches to keep the overall programme aligned with the baseline plan. During the project, Sanjay led by virtue of his depth of knowledge and diversity of experience, providing cover in multiple areas, as and when required. His opinions were well regarded by all stakeholders. Sanjay performed the role of an expert in all World Bank standards and procedures governing the execution of all contracts supported by World Bank Funding, including all matters pertaining to contract administration. Name of assignment or project: Information Management Year: 2011 Location: Wellington, New Zealand Client: IRD New Zealand, Government of New Zealand Main project features: Development of a strategy and a detailed plan for ensuring that IRD New Zealand was in compliance with all Government of New Zealand information management, archival, retrieval and accessibility procedures and standards.

Maintain liaison and co-ordinate diverse needs within IRD. This involved development of detailed business cases encompassing costs of implementation versus expected benefits to be derived from various initiatives. IRD NZ is the primary revenue collector for the Government of New Zealand. Sanjay was responsible for the development of a comprehensive Information Management Strategy covering structured and unstructured information across the whole department. In this role he and his team were expected to develop an over-arching information management strategy consisting of principles, policies, standards and procedures, implementation of this strategic framework across the department, identification and implementation of key technology enablers that would enable integration of information management for the organisation and also drive the necessary behaviour changes for the strategy to succeed. The scope and scale of the project was very large and complicated. At the start of the project, IRD had over 26 different information repositories with no metadata standards and these had to be consolidated into a limited number of preferred target repositories with structured procedures and standards governing all aspects of information management within the department. This detailed planning included development of enterprise architecture for information and document management within the organisation and to integrate this with existing models used for all other core systems. The Zachman framework for enterprise modelling was applied for this assignment. Sanjay completed the initial planning and design and after 9 months on the project handed it over to a replacement as he had been called back by the World Bank to continue to assist the MoF of the Govt of Indonesia, a project he had been working on since 2005. Name of assignment or project: Business Transformation Year: 2009 thru 2010 Location: Jakarta, Indonesia Client: PT Indika Energy (public listed company) Main project features: Establish centres of excellence and shared services for all Group Companies.

This involved development of detailed business cases encompassing costs of implementation (hardware and COTS solutions) versus expected benefits to be derived from various initiatives. Indika Energy is a highly diversified group in the business of Energy infrastructure, resources and services. It owns outright or has majority shareholding in a number of mining, oil exploration, and engineering firms in Indonesia. Sanjay was hired as a Project Director to assist Indika Energy in the establishment of shared services centres for its Information Technology and other back office services covering financial management, HR, and legal & compliance activities. In addition, Sanjay was responsible for the detailed planning for merging operations of new acquisitions into the existing

organisation and operations structure which were under change already, resulting from the establishment of the shared services centres. The strategy that was developed by Sanjay was first to establish the shared services centres that would then develop and implement standards and procedures that would then be the foundation for absorbing all new acquisitions. During the project duration, 3 new acquisitions were merged into existing operations. The scope of work for Sanjay included strategic planning, business process design, and organisational change management. He worked with a number of third parties and suppliers and co-ordinated all aspects of the overall business transformation effort of Indika Energy. Integration of multiple IT operations with diverse technology and the establishment of an integrated IT operation required integration of existing models used for core systems across the different business operations being integrated and the need to rationalise existing technology architectures such that a single architecture can be identified as the target for transition and detailed plans for the necessary transformation can be completed as part of overall strategic planning Name of assignment or project: Information Technology Architect Year: 2007 Location: Abuja, Nigeria Client: Bureau of Public Service Reform, Government of Nigeria Main project features: Develop an integrated Information Technology Architecture for the Federal Government in the areas of Finance, Customs & Tax Departments, to reduce cost of procurement and operations as well as provide standardised service levels and performance improvement to business operations Positions held: Senior Advisor & IT Architect Activities performed: Review business needs, identify technology options, confirm Government preferences and infrastructure needs from various initiatives already underway, align technology architectures and prepare a comprehensive procurement plan. This involved development of detailed cost estimates covering all hardware and software as owners estimates to be used during procurement for various projects. This project was an ancillary project to a number of other projects funded by the World Bank and required development and definition of a standard ICT architecture that would serve the business needs for the Federal Government in the areas of Finance, Customs and Tax. Such architecture would then be used for procurement of standardised technology for a number of different projects. One of the key challenges was to identify suitable solutions for widely differing business areas with wide ranging critical success factors. This required the definition of an overarching ICT architecture that could be used as a common basis across different government departments. In addition, Sanjay was required to complete a review of the project status of the IPPIS project that was being rolled out as a pilot. The review required confirmation as to the suitability and success of the pilot for a nationwide rollout of the solution. This nationwide rollout would be based on the ICT architecture defined above. The final deliverable for this project were two Bid Documents – one for the procurement of the LAN/WAN infrastructure for the nationwide rollout and the other for the extension of the IPPIS solution for use nationwide and in remote areas.

Sanjay as Programme Manager was responsible for ensuring that the project concepts were robust, the tertiary institutions were vigorously involved and the project plans and business cases were developed to support funding requests from the Government of New Zealand. Sanjay was invited to work on the programme for a short period based upon his track record on the PSTN project with Telecom earlier. Sanjay worked on the programme for an initial period of 5 weeks to ensure that the necessary

structure and plans were developed and then handed over the programme to another programme manager due to prior commitments.

In early 2005 Sanjay was retained by the ADB to facilitate a total restructure of the Bank’s IT operations (OIST). OIST had a staff strength of over 200 and was suffering from a number of years of poor governance and inappropriate expenditures culminating in a situation wherein other business areas had started to establish their own little IT operations to obtain necessary support. Over a period of 9 months Sanjay and his team were responsible for a total review of the operations, the processes, and the skill sets available; development of a target organisation structure; definition of new processes and assessment of available skills and staff. All recommendations were accepted by the Bank and Sanjay and his team assisted the management to transition to the new structure and processes while assisting them to recruit the right skills to populate the new structure. Name of assignment or project: PSTN Life Cycle Extension Programme Year: 2004 thru 2005 Location: Wellington, New Zealand Client: Telecom New Zealand Main project features: Review the failure rates of PSTN network components and identify risk mitigation actions such that the revenue base of the PSTN network is protected while a new generation network is rolled out – the PSTN supported NZD3 billion in revenue and the supplier of infrastructure had stopped manufacturing the components and spare parts, thus leading to a critical situation for Telecom New Zealand. Positions held: Project Director Activities performed: Complete a risk profile of failure for the PSTN network, identify mitigation actions, develop a programme of work for all risk mitigation actions and ensure appropriate funding is allocated to the programme of work After successfully planning the details for multi service core implementation, Telecom invited Sanjay to lead the planning and research activity to understand how existing services on the existing PSTN platform could be extended to maximise the financial returns and allow Telecom to delay large investments in NGN technology (allowing the technology to mature prior to investment). This programme required statistical modelling of approximate 2,500 PSTN components and their failure rates, along with review of all systems applications and business processes and skills within the organisation. The project was successfully completed within 9 months, at the

end of which a detailed risk profile for extending the PSTN Lifecycle (along with associated mitigating actions) was approved by the executive. This was a business critical programme for Telecom and was completed within established baselines of time, effort, and financial resources. The key to the success of this programme was the thought leadership provided by Sanjay throughout the programme. The outcomes from these planning efforts are still being applied by Telecom New Zealand and the life cycle has now been extended to beyond 2020 due to this work (as compared to the original estimate of 2007).
