Sound familiar?
You’ve got a mapping tool. You’ve ticked the box. But has it actually changed anything?
Most councils do. Few have council-wide adoption. Even fewer have momentum.
That was Tauranga City Council – stuck in Promapp purgatory. Clunky system. Low uptake. High cost. No clear path to automation.
Now? They’ve made the leap to a more user-friendly platform – and within just four weeks, Tauranga’s teams weren’t just mapping processes. They were training each other, capturing critical knowledge, and building real momentum – without waiting on IT.
And with business users leading the charge and phase two focused squarely on automation, Tauranga’s showing what’s possible when you combine a smart rollout with the right tool.
Join Lisa Lightbourne, Donna Officer, and Shea Nolan as they share how they ditched their legacy system and built a movement – one mapped process at a time.
In this session, you’ll discover:
💬 Why they replaced Promapp – and what tipped the scales
🧭 The phased rollout that helped them build internal champions (not just another tool)
📋 How they structured early wins with process mapping – no automation pressure
🛡️ What risks they faced switching platforms – and how they managed them
🌱 Why “we’re not ready for automation” doesn’t mean “do nothing”
Who should attend?
- Councils feeling stuck with existing BPM software or struggling with low mapping adoption
- Leaders unsure how to evolve from mapping to workflow automation (without scaring the team)
- Anyone who’s looked at the price of Promapp and thought: “surely there’s a better way?”
