The Solution

Infront was selected to provide the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development & Communication (Infrastructure) with a contemporary replacement for their Departmental Access Management System (DAMS). This significantly improved user management for their external-facing systems into a more cohesive, efficient and future-ready platform with improved user experience.

The solution comprised three core components that were delivered concurrently and seamlessly integrated within Infrastructure’s environment. The 9-month project included:

DAMS Portal – an Identity and Access Management (IAM) portal and set of web-services to manage user registration, log-in and self-service capabilities;
DAMS CRM Platform – a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) capability which controls user access management via workflows and consolidate application user business intelligence into a single centralised platform; and
Identity & Access Management Capabilities – the deployment of a set of identity and access management services to provide secure, consistent and flexible access to applications.

The Results

Infront’s solution provided a highly available system that delivered a range of benefits to the Department. Most prominently, the solution provided efficient external and internal user management through streamlined processes such as self-service functionalities. It also provided the ability to easily report on users / stakeholders across all integrated business systems by enabling privileged Departmental staff access to a single user information repository. In addition, the functionality offered a more modern IAM system, the solution enabled secure authentication access to Departmental applications.
