Is your research institute or centre on track to achieve KPIs? Impact Innovation’s Impact Plus® is a simple, structured approach that delivers better performance and greater impact from your research - underpinned by global ISO innovation standards. This includes strengthening team performance and R&D portfolio management, and ensuring you have the necessary IP management systems in place to safeguard your ideas. Your leaders will gain a clearer understanding of the tangible changes they need to make to achieve their future goals.

Establishing a new research centre? We have specialist expertise in university centre establishment and design, from the early stages of planning right through to the first 150 days of operation. We’ll help you design a strategic vision, secure funding, engage with industry, attract specialist talent and set up your governance framework. Everything you need to start strong and succeed.

Winning bids start here. Our tried-and-tested strategic approach to bid design results in bids that clearly demonstrate how impact will be achieved. We’ll work with you to design and build more competitive bids to give you the best chance at success. We can take full responsibility for the entire bidding process including strategic, operational and administrative elements. Or engage us for strategic pieces of work that will strengthen your bid, or help you win funding after an unsuccessful first attempt.

R&D and innovation is all about decisions, and we’re known for our exceptional decision-making support. Our award-winning tools help you make tough decisions with confidence and clarity - like whether to push ahead with an idea or call it quits and move on. We optimise your processes so you can make informed, confident decisions at all stages of the R&D process, from stage-gate design to our award-winning Impact and Commercialisation (IC Readiness®) program.

We make sure your commercial partners, industry partners and funding providers have the information they need to turn your research into reality. We investigate market, supply chain and financial considerations, then design high impact R&D projects that are ready for the next investor.

Need a fresh perspective or extra pair of trusted hands to help you tackle a strategic project, industry challenge or out-of-the-box initiative? Our team brings unmatched technical and industry experience across a diverse range of sectors - from agriculture to aquaculture and fisheries, biotechnology to environment, manufacturing to water. We’ve seen what works (and what doesn’t) so we can give your project a head start and coach you to the finish line.
