Tailored professional support

HMA can assist your organisation to manage and coordinate project delivery, or provide organisational supports. Our services include:

• Project oversight and management
• Administrative support
• Secretariat support
• Grant submission support
• Report writing support

Project management

Our consultants apply project management theory across all projects. This ensures our projects are timely, within scope, engage the necessary stakeholders and resources, employ relevant communication strategies and identify and mitigate risks appropriately. We work closely and collaboratively with clients to initiate, plan, execute, and close projects. This includes management of specialist sub-contractors as required.

Organisational support

Our staff can assist your organisation to draft papers, reports and policies, and prepare grant submissions. We can provide editing services accredited by the Institute of Professional Editors Australia.
