we create better outcomes…

Buying local is investing local.

We want to be a reliable and responsible local business in the Torres Straits. We provide a genuine alternative to Cairns and Brisbane consultants in:

Strategic Planning & Business Development

We are well-known for our strategic thinking, no nonsense honesty and quality advice. Effective strategic planning articulates not only where an organisation is going and the actions needed to make progress, but also how it will know if it is successful. We can perform Strategic Planning activities to help an organisation set priorities, focus energy and resources, strengthen operations, ensure that employees and other stakeholders are working towards common goals.

Portfolio, Program & Project Management

With 6 years Torres Strait based project management experience, Palmer Consulting understands that value is only achieved when project leads have genuine experience in this complex frontier. By utilising our extensive industry network inside and beyond the Torres Strait, we are able to inform our clients with leading insight and advice. Through this approach, our client’s receive holistic support across a multi-disciplined and multi-located area.

Stakeholder & Community Engagement

Palmer Consulting is deeply committed to setting unprecedented levels of high quality stakeholder engagement. Our local project experience means we can provide our clients with high-levels of confidence towards cultural conscious design and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). We are driven by a strong belief that Community consultation is determined by a transparent, meaningful, two-way relationship in which the views of the stakeholders are sought and implemented throughout the project life-cycle.

Business Case & Grant Management

We have a high success rate in client-side processes including business case work, grant applications and funding expressions of interest. Our logic towards business case writing is simple, a compelling business case should adequately capture both the quantifiable and non-quantifiable characteristics of a proposed project. Dependent on your project requirements, Palmer Consultancy can tailor a Business Case or Grant Application from a comprehensive and highly structured to informal and brief.

Environmental Sustainability Management

Environmental sustainability is the rate at which a resource can be depleted indefinitely. If they cannot be continued indefinitely then they are not sustainable. Palmer Consultancy understands the complex interactions between the biological, physical, social, economic and political drivers. We can assist businesses in areas relating to land and marine management, ecology management, policy development and socio-economic planning.
