Auxlaw ?
Auxlaw is a 100% Australian-owned SME which provides probity and procurement advice and services to the Australian Government. With experience spanning a range of complex and high-profile initiatives, we are trusted by clients nationwide to help manage risks, navigate compliance, and maintain public trust through rigorous probity oversight.
 
All members of our team are well-versed in the full range of relevant Commonwealth legislation, policy documents and best practice guides, but we understand that comprehensive probity advice requires expertise beyond the application of procurement-specific legislation and policy. Our team distinguishes itself by applying Commonwealth procurement principles in a commercially aware and pragmatic manner.
 
Auxlaw operates on a ‘government first’ basis, minimising the risk of any conflicts of interest in our work with Commonwealth clients. Our extensive work with Commonwealth entities has given us a deep understanding of the government’s operating environment and expectations of service providers. We tailor the delivery of our services in consultation with our clients, to ensure we provide the right level of support and that our services represent value for money.
 
Auxlaw is a corporate member of World Commerce and Contracting and the International Centre for Complex Project Management (ICCPM). All Auxlaw staff hold AGSVA security clearances.

Thoughtpost Governance ?

Governance has the potential to significantly impact the development and delivery of Public Policy outcomes.

Governance is a misunderstood category often grouped under the heading of “compliance”, rather than the broader topic of “governance systems and performance impacting policy outcomes”.

Thoughtpost is one of Australia’s leading public sector Governance specialist firms. Governance is all we do. 
We understand the nuance required when operating in a public sector environment, often influenced by what we describe as “constrained autonomy”.

Our principals were responsible for the development of the governance curriculum for the AICD.

Our subject matter specialist partners address the broad question of Governance from the integrated perspectives of

  • policy and process,
  • strategy and finance, 
  • regulatory and legal, 
  • behaviour and culture.

Alignment behind a common purpose produces better outcomes.

Thoughtpost can assist in multiple ways:

  • We can ensure that governance structures are appropriate for the stated purpose, and effectively support the defined strategy. 
  • We will help you benchmark and measure the key factors of performance and alignment to ensure effective delivery.
  • We can work with you to ensure that the right skills and behaviours are engaged to drive a stable and enduring culture.
