§ 01Who we work with

Organisations where disruption would genuinely matter.

To their people. To their community. To the services they deliver. If your organisation disappearing for two weeks would just be inconvenient, you probably do not need us. If it would leave a gap that real people feel, we should talk.

01

Community and Social Services

You deliver essential services under contract. Often to people who have nowhere else to go. Your workforce includes volunteers who may not show up when things get difficult. Your governance is through trustees who do their best in limited time. Your funders increasingly want evidence that you can keep delivering when something goes wrong.

We understand this sector. Resilience in an NFP does not look like resilience in a corporate. Your budget is tight. Your people are stretched. Your plans need to reflect the way you actually operate, not the way a generic template assumes you do.

02

Tertiary Institutions

Universities and polytechnics have a lot to manage: students, staff, research, community obligations, international reputation and increasingly complex regulatory requirements.

We have seen what happens when a tertiary institution gets disrupted. Enrolments can decline. Research programmes never recover. Partnerships and reputation take a hit. Canterbury taught the sector that lesson.

An independent maturity assessment gives your governance body something concrete: a score, a gap analysis, and a practical path forward. Evidence, not assurances.

03

Local and Regional Government

You have statutory obligations under the Emergency Management Act 2026. You have community expectations that your services will continue when things go wrong. Your residents do not draw a line between your corporate continuity and your emergency management capability, and neither do we.

For many councils, resilience sits with someone who also does five other jobs. The plan was last updated two restructures ago. Everyone assumes it would work because it has never been tested.

We work with councils that want an honest, independent view of where they stand. Not a consultant who will tell them what they want to hear. Not a report that collects dust. A practical assessment that identifies the gaps that matter and tells them what to do about it.

04

Regulated Sectors

Financial services. Healthcare. Utilities. Infrastructure. Military. Your regulators, including RBNZ, FMA, WorkSafe and sector-specific bodies, expect more than documented plans. They expect evidenced capability. An independent maturity assessment gives you that evidence in a format your audit committee can rely on and your regulator will accept.

If you are an essential infrastructure provider under Schedule 3 of the Emergency Management Act 2026, you already know the obligation exists. What you may not know is whether your current arrangements would actually meet it under pressure. That is a question worth answering before someone else asks it.

§ 02After the event

Organisations that have had a disruption.

Sometimes the most valuable assessment happens after the event, not before it. You managed. You got through. But you are not entirely sure it went as well as it should have, or whether you would get through the next one.

Post-event is when organisations are most honest about their gaps. The politics drop away. People say what actually happened rather than what the plan said should happen. If you have been through something and want to understand what it revealed, that is a good time to talk to us.

§ 03Case studies

We are building our library of New Zealand case studies. In the meantime, we are happy to talk through relevant experience directly. No glossy brochure — just a conversation about what we have done and whether it is relevant to your situation.
