THAI VONG | ENTERPRISE CIO
This shared understanding is crucial to maintaining programme momentum.
Delivering under pressure Thai says one transformation initiative in particular stands out as a defining moment in his career.
Working for a company in the midst of a sale process, he was tasked with bringing the core enterprise platform into compliance to support due diligence. This required coordinating upgrades across multiple warehouses and sites without disrupting operations.
Simultaneously, Thai led the platform and middleware migration into the cloud.
These systems supported more than 200 global locations and at least US $ 800m in managed spend.
“ The technical work was significant,” he recalls.“ But what really mattered was keeping people informed, making sure they understood what was changing and putting contingencies in place so the work didn’ t stop.”
The team delivered on time, strengthened resilience and gave the organisation a much stronger foundation – reinforcing a key lesson for Thai:“ Successful transformation comes down to solid architecture, clear communication and guiding people through change.”
