    The Strategy and Transformation Office (STO) is the ACT Government's in-house consultancy, bringing together multidisciplinary teams with diverse minds to solve complex and adaptive problems, including playing a pivotal role in building long-term strategic planning. The team works in partnership with business areas on niche or whole of government problems to determine appropriate responses to business challenges and opportunities. The STO creates collaborative design experiences that bring the right people together at the right time to solve the right strategic problems.
