We are not on Commonwealth or state panels. That is a constraint for some teams, and a deliberate choice, not an oversight. Panel compliance has overhead, and that overhead ends up in your invoice. Most teams find a workable path. Here are the three that work.
Share your procurement constraints early and we'll identify the right path quickly.
Most of our engagements start here. You receive a fixed-price quote before any work begins, no T&M, no change orders. For below-threshold procurement this is typically the simplest path, requiring only internal approval and a signed SOW.
Some teams have existing SOE or prequalification arrangements that allow engagement with non-panel suppliers. We've navigated SOE, prequalification schemes, and direct engagement clauses across Commonwealth and state jurisdictions.
Our deployable products, Managed Network Edge, Managed SIEM, Essential 8 IaC modules, are listed on Azure Marketplace. No panel required, no separate procurement process. We have experience structuring engagements to maximise MACC drawdown where it applies.
The second question agencies ask: can you actually work in our environment? Clearances, ISM obligations, classification constraints, DISP requirements. Here's where we stand.
We have operated in regulated government environments for years. We hold appropriate clearances for the work we do, and we've built and maintained systems to ISM, not just assessed against it. That distinction matters. Reading the ISM is not the same as delivering IaC that passes an ACSC assessment.
Practitioners hold appropriate Australian Government security clearances for the work we perform. Clearance level confirmed during initial engagement scoping.
We build to ISM v2026.06.18. Our Essential 8 modules and network products map to specific controls, not as a framework exercise but as deployed, testable Azure configuration.
We understand DISP obligations and have worked with agencies navigating first-time DISP assessment and ongoing compliance. We scope for it, not around it.
No grad army. The people doing the work have done this before, in Australian government environments, not in a lab. That's not a marketing claim; it's a staffing model.
