Public procurement now carries greater economic weight and policy influence than at any point in the past decade. In Australia, the Commonwealth alone spends more than A$70 billion each year on goods and services, while New Zealand public agencies purchase NZ$51 billion annually from third-party suppliers. Governments are increasingly using this spend to advance broader objectives—with initiatives including Australia’s First Nations procurement target of 4 per cent by 2030 and New Zealand’s increased targets for contracts awarded to Māori businesses.
Delivery systems, however, are struggling to keep pace with these ambitions. Persistent gaps in supplier visibility, prequalification, and performance management remain—particularly across local, SME, and regional markets. Fragmented data, legacy systems, and inconsistent reporting make it difficult to assess whether public spending is reaching intended cohorts or delivering improved service outcomes. As a result, governments face an ongoing challenge in translating policy intent into measurable, on-the-ground impact.
Galloway & Pierce engages across multiple layers of the supplier and delivery value chain to strengthen visibility, performance, and impact. This includes:
A clear trend toward centralisation is changing how governments approach procurement. Agencies are moving toward shared systems and buying models to lift efficiency, strengthen oversight, and reduce fragmentation across portfolios. At the same time, expectations of public value are expanding. Departments are required to deliver programs that meet strict probity standards, widen supplier participation, and demonstrate measurable outcomes, all while operating within tighter fiscal and governance constraints.
We provide public sector teams a clear view of supplier capability, capacity and compliance across delivery networks, supporting realistic planning, wider participation by SMEs and specialist providers, and clearer understanding of constraints.
We make supplier readiness visible across staffing, systems, accessibility, data, and service capability, helping delivery teams understand mobilisation conditions and constraints early, supporting smoother transitions.
We consolidate supplier performance, risk, social value, and commercial data into a single evidence base that supports transparent decision-making, real-time visibility of delivery outcomes, and objective evaluation of programme performance.
We surface visibility across supplier networks and delivery interfaces to help teams identify emerging delivery and risk signals, supporting coordination, reporting, and timely response through existing governance and escalation pathways.
Galloway & Pierce supports informed project delivery by surfacing clear, point-in-time views of supplier participation, dependencies, and exposure across every stage of the program lifecycle.
Gain programme-wide visibility of how local and national suppliers contribute across work packages, scopes, and delivery stages — helping manage risk and demonstrate compliance.
Simplify oversight and embed data flows to show how engagement shifts through design, construction, and handover — supporting coordination, performance management, and project progression.
Organise network information to clarify roles, dependencies, and interfaces — helping teams coordinate activity, manage risk, and maintain continuity across complex transport networks.
Coordinate data across programmes to support readiness, compliance, and local participation — helping teams evidence capability, track performance, and meet assurance requirements.
Provide transparent, traceable visibility of participation and performance across programmes — supporting assurance, accountability, and confidence in public investment outcomes.
Maintain consistent visibility of provider participation across operations to support qualification, compliance, and governance requirements in safety-critical environments.
Strong delivery depends on understanding how suppliers and people participate across projects, programmes, and delivery networks. Clear visibility across capability, capacity, and engagement supports more reliable outcomes, stronger coordination, and greater transparency across the value chain.
Our team supports asset owners and delivery teams by helping them build a independent, validated picture of supplier and workforce participation. We link suppliers and people to delivery context and business impact by combining supplier-side insight, reporting, and on-the-ground delivery experience to support informed engagement and decision-making.
As reporting grows, it no longer follows delivery. It runs alongside it, distributing focus and changing how suppliers operate throughout the project.
Efficiency-driven consolidation can simplify delivery, but it also reshapes supplier participation, capability pathways, and the supply ecosystem.
Automation works until it doesn’t. Learn why supplier technology breaks under pressure and how resilient teams balance systems with judgment.
Learn why digital traceability breaks down in practice and how human workarounds quietly turn compliance into fiction.
