Government

"…the speed, the professional nature of conduct and the quality of the end result were truly excellent"

Governments have to discharge their duties effectively, equitably and transparently - bearing in mind that at all times they are the custodians of public good.

Policy makers are assailed from all quarters by a variety of stakeholders, interest groups, lobbyists and the media.

Policies need to be formulated, implemented and evaluated on a regular basis. Consultation and engagement must be broad and proactive - with the public, with industry, with academia and within government itself.

Often the task is multidimensional. Gaining support across departments or across the Federal/State divide is as challenging a task as any. Political considerations aside, the quality of data is a key determinant in evidence-based discussion and policy making.

The Americans say "you treasure what you measure". Our scientific and commercial duality allows us to help government measure the right things, and make well informed policy decisions.

And our cross cultural expertise allows us to help government to engage effectively with academia and industry, as well as brokering engagement between the two.
