How global real estate company Lendlease is driving change with GitLab

Lendlease, a multinational real estate company, has embraced GitLab's DevSecOps platform to drive a cultural transformation within its software development teams, aiming to enhance collaboration, visibility, and shared security responsibility across its global workforce. Chief Software Architect Ciaran Hennessy highlighted the impact of adopting an end-to-end platform that eliminates a complex toolchain, fostering cohesion in a hybrid work environment post-COVID-19 and ensuring 'radical visibility' among team members. This approach has enabled every team member, from executives to developers, to contribute to projects effectively, breaking traditional silos and promoting shared knowledge. The integration of security into the development process has shifted the mindset towards proactive security practices, making it a collective responsibility rather than an afterthought. By leveraging GitLab, Lendlease has also managed to integrate and modernize its legacy systems, making them accessible and functional for newer generations of developers through containerization. Additionally, Hennessy is optimistic about the role of generative AI in accelerating development processes, although he expresses concern about potential gaps in foundational skills among future developers. This strategic approach is part of Lendlease's broader objective to deliver innovative solutions through its core segments of investment, development, and construction.
