Six years of collaboration, 20+ projects across 10+ clients, and a growing portfolio of jointly developed solutions are a few pieces of the work that earned UST @Workato's 2026 Partner of the Year award for ANZ.
The award was presented at World of Workato Sydney, where our teams showcased integration and automation solutions and joined Helping Hand's CTO on stage to discuss how governed data and integrations lay the groundwork for AI orchestration.
Alongside delivering client projects, we've modernized UST's own integration environment using Workato. That firsthand experience gives our teams a practical understanding of what it takes to implement, manage, and scale enterprise integrations.
Congratulations to our ANZ team on the recognition and thank you to Workato for the continued partnership.

“The real value will come from knowing how to trust the work of AI, where to question it and where human judgement still matters.”
In Finance Chief, UST CFO Vijay Padmanabhan explores how AI is changing finance, the skills employees need and the growing responsibilities of CFOs.
Three priorities for #finance leaders as AI adoption grows:
• Finance needs to be involved in technology strategy, helping evaluate major investments and how they support broader business goals.
• AI introduces new costs and risks, from model and computing expenses to uncertain returns on investment. Finance leaders need to keep a close eye on spending and establish clear guardrails.
• As AI handles more routine work, finance leaders need to invest in employees' data literacy and AI skills so they can evaluate results, question assumptions and make informed decisions.

“Every enterprise leader I talk to is constrained by compute, talent and change management, roughly in that order. None of them is constrained by enthusiasm.”
In @WSJ, @adnanmasood, UST’s Chief AI Architect, shares what business leaders should expect as enterprise appetite for AI runs ahead of the resources needed to deliver it.
Hyperscalers aren't likely to cut investment, but some planned computing capacity could arrive months later than expected.
For businesses, that means factoring capacity constraints into AI rollout plans while setting clear measures of success. Adnan expects boards to judge every AI dollar on production metrics such as cycle time and cost per transaction.
“That is capital discipline, and it is healthy.”

If ransomware takes primary systems offline, how will clinicians access critical patient data?
For healthcare organizations running Epic, an isolated recovery environment (IRE) on Microsoft Azure can help preserve access during a disruption. But preparing for recovery also means addressing architecture, testing, costs, and operational procedures long before systems go offline.
On October 29, experts from Dayton Children's Hospital, Microsoft, and UST will explore:
• How to move an Epic IRE from architecture and deployment to testing and recovery runbooks
• How pilot-light approaches and Azure consumption optimization can support cost-conscious recovery strategies
• Where Microsoft funding pathways may support Epic on Azure initiatives
• How a hospital CIO approaches Epic resilience, recovery planning, and operational readiness

Legacy systems served their purpose. When the application landscape is in the cloud and SaaS, it’s time to modernize your legacy integration platform too.
When it came to update UST’s own systems, our team selected @Workato for three key criteria:
✅The ability to scale with the organization.
✅A low-code approach that could make development accessible to a broader team.
✅An architecture that could support future innovation beyond point-to-point integration.
Phase one of the transformation saw our teams execute 268 integrations with zero downtime in a 10-week timeline.
Phase two sees Workato connecting AI agents, enterprise systems, and human-facing processes at scale.
