STM Resource Optimization Strategy

I want to overhaul our current STM management approach so that every dollar, hour and line of code is pulling maximum weight. The core objective is very clear: optimize resources. Whether the final focus settles on stakeholder collaboration, software lifecycle, or broader systems governance, the guiding metric will be measurable gains in efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Here is what I need from you:

• A short discovery phase to map the existing workflows, assets and pain points.
• A concise but actionable optimisation blueprint outlining quick wins and longer-term recommendations, ranked by ROI.
• An implementation roadmap that specifies milestones, owners and the monitoring KPIs we will use to prove the improvements.

Please weave recognised practices—lean, ITIL, value-stream mapping or similar—into the proposal and be comfortable supporting the plan with tools like Jira, Trello, MS Project or any analytics platform you consider essential. Clear communication, transparent assumptions and evidence-backed justifications will determine acceptance.
