Partnering with Corporations and Non-Profits

Better research. Bigger impact.

R&D programs that deliver.

Most organisations want to innovate. But what that looks like varies widely. And if you’re the one leading innovation in your business or not-for-profit it can be hard to get everyone on the same page – let alone talking the same language. We help you build the innovation culture, capabilities and resources you need to develop your organisation’s brightest ideas. From strategy design to innovation workshops, we’ll make sure your investment in innovation pays off.

No hype. Just high-performance.

We help corporate and not-for-profit innovation managers design, kickstart, manage and evaluate R&D programs. We don’t use buzzwords. We do use best-practice innovation standards and award-winning decision making tools. We make the complex simple and the tough decisions easier, and we’ve always got your back.

Solutions:

R&D Impact

Are your stakeholders expecting greater confidence that your R&D investments will deliver tangible outcomes? Across Australia, corporate innovation teams are turning to the R&D Impact Studio to shape initiatives that go beyond technical outputs and create real-world value. Seamlessly integrated with your internal systems, the Studio helps sharpen impact pathways, inform high-stakes decisions, and align your efforts with the expectations of customers, partners, and investors.

R&D Strategy

Whether you're launching a new innovation initiative or strengthening existing programs, we help shape strategy, operations, and internal systems to boost performance and impact. Our approach aligns your R&D management with ISO innovation standards and builds core capabilities—such as identifying the right opportunities and defining clear value. Using tools like Impact Plus®, we support leaders to refine processes, set strategic direction, and position their teams for long-term success.

Monitoring and Evaluation

We design monitoring and evaluation systems that move beyond tracking activities to defining, measuring, and driving meaningful outcomes. With deep expertise in program design, we embed feedback loops and lessons learned processes that inform future strategy and delivery. Our services include mid-term reviews, redesigns, and both forward-looking (ex-ante) and retrospective (ex-post) evaluations. Using a systems thinking approach and cost-effective data collection methods, we provide practical insights and decision support to help you demonstrate the impact and value of your initiatives.

Team Skills Development

Innovation is powered by people, and we’re here to bring out the best in yours! With over 40 R&D and innovation management modules, we design custom training solutions to meet your needs. Our experts in adult learning ensure every training experience is effective and engaging, and because we’re involved in international working groups on R&D and innovation standards, our training reflects global best practice. To maximise the value of your training we also offer mentoring support to help your team put their new knowledge into action.
