The formulation of relevant policies and strategies is equally daunting. These challenges extend beyond government to include not-for-profit and private sector service providers.

 

The stakes are high.

 

Among those who rely on these services and income support are the most vulnerable and disadvantaged members of society. At the same time, funding of health and human services accounts for a high and increasing proportion of government outlays. Obtaining value for the taxpayers’ dollar and satisfying community expectations are vital considerations.

 

Good outcomes in these matters result from strong management capabilities, robust reporting frameworks, the imaginative deployment of infrastructure and technology, sound operating systems and advanced financial skills. High quality external advice can help build these capabilities.
