What people say about us
GREG VANN,
CHAIR OF GOLD COAST WATERWAYS AUTHORITY
GovPartners worked to a tight frame to establish the key themes for attention and to deliver a report that enabled the Board to facilitate positive change in our organisation.
GovPartners assisted my team with preparation of a guidance document to outline planning legislation changes to support the understanding of industry and community groups. The team turned around the work in a very short period of time, were available on short notice and readily adapted to the changing needs of the project. The final product met our needs and was excellent value for money.
GovPartners have this rare ability to provide strategic and operational project management advice to all tiers and variety of stakeholders, in a respectful and meaningful way. They bring everyone along together as well as ensuring Aspect is set up for success to deliver the best possible education facilities for people on the autism spectrum.
AMANDA KERN,
MANAGER PLANNING AND BUILDING, YARRA RANGES COUNCIL
GovPartners has been instrumental in steering the project team and Yarra Ranges Council throughout the design of a pioneering, innovative planning service delivery tool.
By consistently applying a public sector perspective, their expertise, experience, and deep insights have been crucial in ensuring that the unique challenges faced by local government are thoughtfully integrated as we enhance the planning process and improve customer experience.
GovPartners has emerged as a trusted collaborator to Council.
TONY DIBBENHALL,
CFO AND DIRECTOR CORPORATE SERVICES, AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM
GovPartners was able to build effective relationships and navigate the unique complexities of a museum environment, greatly enhancing the standard of quality across a diverse set of projects. GovPartners‘ project management expertise, responsiveness, and flexibility have also meant that these critical projects are positioned for successful outcomes on all measures.
JOSEPH KIRKWOOD,
A/ MANAGER REGIONAL DEV, HEALTH AND BIODIVERSITY,
SCENIC RIM REGIONAL COUNCIL
With a shortage of experienced planners in the industry, we engaged GovPartners to assist Council with capacity challenges. The output has been fantastic and we have received positive feedback from our Councillors too. We have also benefited from process efficiency recommendations and a greater focus on the customer. If you are a Council in need of experienced planning assistance, I have no hesitation in recommending GovPartners.
