Business Management

Eligible Australian businesses within the identified Growth Sectors are able to take advantage of the following services under Business Management.

Business Evaluation

Experienced Business Advisers review business operations, including business direction and strategy. The outcome of the review is a unique Evaluation Report tailored to your business that has business improvement suggestions which can be implemented to improve your business either for a specific project, or for your business as a whole depending on your requirements.

A skilled and expert Business Adviser will:

Come to your business premises to gather information about your business
Undertake further research and analyse the information off-site
Prepare a tailored Business Evaluation Action Plan outlining strategies your business can take to become more competitive, improve and grow.

When you are ready to apply the strategies, the Business Adviser will coach and mentor you for up to twelve months. Your business will also then have access to a co-funded Business Growth Grant of up to $20,000* to engage further consulting services to scope and develop the actions identified during the Business Evaluation.
