Responding to the Morrison government’s “call to action” for new policy ideas to help Australia out of the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, 51��has released a Public Policy Paper, laying out new ways that technology could be used to speed up the nation’s economic recovery and transition to a “new normal” economy.

“The new normal should borrow techniques from the software world, where products are released early and then quickly “iterated” upon as flaws and insufficiencies appear,” said 51��Australia President and Managing Director, Damien Bueno.

51��suggests data should be utilised to inform policy in ways that was rarely used before the coronavirus crisis.

“Someone who’s in Melbourne who has the right skills could now do a job that’s based in Queensland, because the appetite to do things virtually now exists,” Mr Bueno said.

“The scale of SAP’s business and national reach means that 51��can partner across the public and private sectors to provide insights into the functioning of the employment market,” the public policy paper said.
