Our services
Strategy
We know that good strategy is about prioritisation, which means deciding not only what you should focus on, but also what not to do. To achieve this we identify an organisation’s priority challenges and opportunities, and then collaboratively design the changes and path needed to move to the desired future state.
Evaluation
We design and deliver evaluations for clients to understand the impact of initiatives and help them make informed, evidence-based decisions into the future. Our evaluations are focused on generating practical insights and results to help decision-makers chart a course.
Policy advice and reviews
We support clients to design, review and respond to their policy context by considering the imperative, the evidence base, the levers and options they have available and how to best deliver the outcomes they are seeking to achieve.
Co-design and facilitation
We support organisations through providing facilitation and co-design support to unearth challenges and opportunities and collaborate to develop solutions through facilitated discussion, workshops and focus groups.
Funding support
We support clients to develop pitches, proposals, budget bids, grant applications and cases for funding from a range of government and other funders.
Financial and economic modelling
We use tailored economic and financial modelling methodologies to help quantify the impacts of policies, initiatives, programs, investments and regulatory changes and provide advice on the costs and benefits for different approaches.
Governance, operating models and organisational change
We support organisations in aligning their governance structures and operating models with their vision, purpose, and strategy.
