Government
| “The very first client brief entrusted to Trudeau & Associates was a significant one: the coordination of the team investigating the collapse of the State Bank of South Australia, under the leadership of the Auditor-General of South Australia. It was,” recalls Benoit Trudeau, Managing Director, “an extraordinary assignment by any measure – one of the most challenging and interesting that the Firm has ever carried out.”
It also marked the first of a series of assignments Trudeau & Associates has undertaken for Australia’s Federal, State and local government entities as well as statutory authorities and State-owned instrumentalities.
Since that time we have:
- Provided strategy development and business planning services to clients such as:
- New South Wales Property Services Group
- New South Wales Department of Housing
- South Sydney Development Corporation
- Landcom
- Honeysuckle Development Corporation
- City West Development Corporation, and
- Homebush Bay Development Corporation.
- Provided diagnostic and organisational performance enhancement services to entities as diverse as:
- New South Wales Department of Urban Affairs and Planning
- Premier’s Department
- New South Wales Treasury
- State Rail Authority
- FreightCorp
- New South Wales Rail Services Authority
- Environmental Protection Agency
- Landcom
- Commonwealth Department of Administrative Services, and
- Commonwealth Department of Veterans’ Affairs.

| One of the greatest assets of the Firm, when it comes to dealing with government, is its experience of:
- The shaping of joint ventures and partnerships between the private and public sectors as an essential tool in fostering the development of infrastructure and essential services, and of
- The practical reconciliation of commercial and social imperatives assigned to State-owned entities and instrumentalities, as governments rethink their role and participation in a range of sectors, from public health to electricity generation and search for better models of service delivery in constrained economic settings.
“Some of our more interesting assignments have been concerned with the degree to which it is either appropriate or feasible to introduce into public sector environments a range of commercial practices, at a time when more than one government-linked entity is asked to balance government contributions with various forms of payment from service users”, says Benoit. “We are particularly keen to participate in the debate surrounding how best cash-limited government entities can meet their expanding service delivery charter to the public.” |
