Professional services firm, Deloitte, today announced the launch of Deloitte Digital, a revolutionary way of delivering professional services via an online portal that will provide easy access to a range of financial tools, online training, compliance and HR solutions.
The Deloitte intellectual property delivered through Deloitte Digital includes AMLcheck™, Deloitte’s online anti-money laundering product; AFTnet, a system for managing documents for litigation and large legal actions; Deloitte Leadership Academy, a social network that delivers high e-learning content from partners such as Harvard and Melbourne Universities; and a variety of e-learning tools and self-assessment surveys.
“Deloitte is the first professional services firm in Australia to develop such an innovative online business,” said Peter Williams, Chief Executive of Deloitte Digital.
“Our people’s ideas created the impetus to enable Deloitte to create this exciting business,” said Williams.
“This innovative way of delivering professional services complements Deloitte’s traditional, face-to-face service delivery to clients,” said Williams. “Deloitte Digital will use its comprehensive online portal to rapidly roll out new online services. We are determined to be easily accessible to individuals and businesses, and to always be one step ahead in order to meet business needs.
“Pioneering the delivery of professional services online is a natural extension of being innovative about our business and that of our clients. Over the last few years Deloitte’s own innovation program has successfully packaged and taken to market $12 million worth of the firm’s ideas to add value to clients and create new opportunities for business.
The Deloitte Digital portal is currently for users registered in Australia and can be accessed at www.deloittedigital.com.
Gerhard Vorster, Managing Partner of Deloitte Consulting said, “It’s hard to imagine a business not impacted by the internet, yet to a large extent professional services have not embraced the business development opportunities that the digital economy affords.”
“Offering our services online will appeal to both our top end of town clients and the middle market as well as smaller businesses which will now gain access to Deloitte thinking and IP.”
Deloitte Digital was developed in-house by Eclipse, Deloitte’s specialist online advisory and implementation division.
