Thank you for spending some time with us at Avalon 2023. Popcorn, planes, and a good chat. It was a terrific, if tiring, three days. The most common question we were asked was "What do you do?"
Our business supports the better delivery of public services, by the public and private sectors and often at the juncture of the two.
Simply it is "to get the job done". With honesty, clarity, persistence, and energy.
Commercial acumen, negotiation, contract, program and project management, change and training are core capabilities - in any domain. To name a few: Australian Passports, Visa programs, ERP PMO, catering in Afghanistan, security services in Iraq, missile defence, vaccine recovery, shipbuilding and combat management systems, legislative compliance, workplace health and safety, behavioural change, infrastructure, logistics, warehousing, housing and aged care. IT and communications to infrastructure, workforce design to hazardous area compliance.
Our speciality is solving public sector problems, dealing with the urgent and the important, quickly. We can leverage technologists - yours and ours - through good leadership, planning and execution. You don't need to be big with the biggest team or the biggest technology to make a difference. You can use building blocks and popcorn.
Whether you want help with your job, or you want a job, we invite you to give us a chance. We are different.
