DIRECTORS

Our directors are Ron Peake and Derek Lyons.

 

PROFILE: RON PEAKE

Astute assessment followed by pragmatic action. Ron has the experience and ability to effectively get to the nub of an issue, create a concise, critical assessment and then get on and deliver an outcome.

He’ll always have skin in the game, understanding the implications of weak or failing programmes and projects. He works closely with clients to develop the frameworks and capabilities that get programmes back on track. He’ll ensure transitions and capabilities are stronger than when he arrived, arming teams and organisations with the tools to stay on track. Ron has over 15 years experience leading large teams through change, in the public and private sectors. He focuses on strategy development, complex organisational change, management, programme and project work, contract management and procurement. He will influence, plan and align the key components to get things effectively back in play – expecting to go where others fear to tread if it delivers the goods for clients and turns a problem into a win.

PROFILE: DEREK LYONS

Derek distils problems to their core components – then identifies ways to solve them. He’s direct, detailed and dogged.

His independent voice and experience on the ground gives clients a clear, practical route to swiftly recovering business benefits.

Derek has over 20 years experience in complex project work, organisation change, management, strategy development, contract management and procurement. He has a particular affinity with commercial contractual work, mining the legal landscape for the most effective outcomes. And the outcomes he pursues for his clients are effective - and pragmatic.

SKILLED CONSULTANTS – PERMANENT & ASSOCIATES

We have a team of highly respected consultants around the country, deeply knowledgeable in processes, procedures and approaches for government and private sector projects. We handpick the team most relevant for each project.

 

SHARING KNOWLEDGE AND PROCESSES

Our consultants have access to our constantly updated knowledge base and processes. They utilise this pool of intellectual property and insights to further boost their own expertise, bringing serious value to our clients.

 

SPECIALIST PARTNERS

Our focus is not on being all things to all parties. In addition to the expertise we have internally, we also have formal partnerships with other organisations in the market, who we work with in a structure manner. This enables us to bring together a total solution for our clients, either though our lead or through our clients being able to contract specialists independently who they know are the top of their field.
