The ability to negotiate is a critical skill not just for external negotiations, but also for challenging internal negotiations.

Recent Parliamentary Audits have identified systemic shortcomings in negotiation and procurement practices across a range of Government Departments.  Skilful negotiation is key to delivering efficient procurement and effective contract management.  Too often, government delivers poor outcomes because commercially inexperienced public servants are left to deliver important negotiations, having had no training in negotiation skills.  They face commercially astute and highly skilled corporate negotiators with predictable outcomes.

Negotiation Partners is a team of negotiation specialists.  Our clients trust us:

1. to train senior negotiators to deliver outstanding, sustainable outcomes
2. to assist teams to prepare for challenging negotiations, and if necessary
3. to negotiate agreements on their behalf

We work across all industries including healthcare, defence, logistics, infrastructure and banking.  We have delivered outcomes for Employment and Defence Dept’s, as well as state procurement teams in NSW, VIC and QLD.

We help our clients to reduce risk, to achieve more, and to deliver faster outcomes through more effective negotiation. That’s our promise.
