Levande’s Tech Transformation with Testpoint

    Levande emerged in 2022 following the purchase of 58 retirement villages from Stockland for $987 million. As a newly independent operator with over 10,000 residents and plans to add 1,300 units it faced the complex challenge of carving out its own IT estate in just 12 months.

    Key Challenge
    All core systems HR, finance, CRM had to be replaced. They chose Microsoft Dynamics 365, Salesforce, and Dayforce, but none were inherited from Stockland. This meant designing, building, testing, and deploying everything from scratch under aggressive deadlines

    Testpoint Engagement: A Partnership for Success

    Testpoint was engaged from the outset as Levande’s specialist testing consultancy, responsible for overseeing quality across all phases of the technology transformation. Working in parallel with PwC the primary implementation partner for Dynamics 365 and the broader IT rollout, Testpoint provided independent quality assurance, strategic testing advisory, and hands-on test delivery.

    By collaborating closely with both PwC and Levande’s internal teams, Testpoint ensured that all critical systems, including Dynamics 365, HR, finance, and CRM, were rigorously tested, validated, and ready for go-live. This partnership approach enabled Levande to meet its ambitious project deadlines with the confidence that quality was never compromised.

    Testpoint’s services included:

    • Strategic Test Advisory & Planning:
      Testpoint defined test objectives and scope, developing a robust, risk-based strategy tailored to Levande’s priorities. An agile and scalable approach enabled rapid progress without sacrificing quality.
    • Full-Service Testing Delivery:

      By implementing Vansah Test Management for Jira and Confluence, Testpoint provided Levande with real-time test insights, traceability, and streamlined issue management. Testpoint also supported the creation of a Testing Center of Excellence (TCoE), embedding quality governance and best practices.
