Strategy
Our strategic objective is to define and then meet the goals for every project; recognising key stakeholder issues, aligning expectations, scenario planning outcomes, managing risks and mobilising the resources to implement success.
Communications
We translate complex processes into straightforward and accessible communications. Crafting narratives that are relevant for every level of stakeholder from government, industry, media and the public, we recognise the value in clarity.
Economic and social impact
We help clients understand the true economic and social impact that a precinct, investment or policy will have on the community, city, region and customers. Investigating beyond what’s socially desired to what the reality will be, offers long-term value to every stakeholder.
Costings and fiscal impact
Reliable budget strategies, credible cost:benefit analysis and dependable and robust business cases are imperative to every successful project. We work alongside the relevant agencies and stakeholders to safeguard costings for the lifetime of the project.
Approval process
Securing funding for major Government investments in the correct formal process can be a complicated procedure. We not only ensure the smooth pathway for cabinet submissions, but also verify that the business cases adhere to strict guidelines.
Project mobilisation
Ensuring that the appropriate organisational and technical infrastructures are in place before acquiring and deploying resources will save both time and money. Typically we help set up a new agency, branch or delivery team to cover the life cycle of the project.
Benefit monitoring and realisation
Managing the investment by organisations in procurement, projects and programs is essential to ensure that the project benefits are identified early, tracked and communicated. We create the metrics, logic and process to make sure that the benefit focus is maintained.
Program evaluation
Is the project, policy or funding worthwhile and is it producing the intended effect? Can it be improved, or is there an alternative? Examining the efficiency, effectiveness and impact of a policy with program logic and a range of qualitative and quantitative techniques answers these questions.
