Company Insights
New logo
Earlier this year we were excited to reveal our new logo and branding. As our company continues to grow and evolve, we felt it was time to refresh our brand identity to better reflect who we are and what we stand for. Our logo is a modern and sleek design that represents our commitment to innovation and excellence. Featuring a lotus flower as a symbol of resilience and a soft colour scheme that reflects one of our main points of difference that we are a predominantly female based team in a male dominant industry we believe the new look mirrors our energy and passion for what we do.

Our Team
As we navigate the twists and turns of another transformative year, it has included both pleasure and bittersweet moments to extend a warm welcome to the new faces that have joined our team and bid farewell to those who have contributed significantly to our journey. The collective spirit, dedication, and diverse skills each team member brings has been the driving force behind our successes thus far. As we look forward to 2024, there’s an undeniable sense of excitement about the possibilities that await our exceptional team.
Travels
The past year has been an exciting adventure of work-related travel, taking our team members across the diverse landscapes of Australia. Including Sydney, Perth, Burnie, Hastings, Geelong, Cairns, Adelaide, Brisbane, Tasmania, Thursday Island and Melbourne, as well as international destinations like Singapore and Abu Dhabi, each place brought unique opportunities and experiences. Each location has not only enhanced our team’s professional endeavours but has also made a lasting impact on personal growth, making this year of travel an exciting and fulfilling chapter for our company.
Clients
In 2023, our diverse clientele expanded to include three major ports in Australia, universities, the Torres Strait Regional Authority (TSRA), and engagements in flood reviews and Part 7A audits. Partnering with key players in the maritime industry, educational institutions, and government bodies, we continued to provide tailored solutions and valuable resilience insights.
Case Studies, Industry Insights & Blogs:
Network Outages
On November 8th, a significant outage hit one of Australia’s major telecommunication networks, serving as a stark reminder of the vulnerability businesses face to unforeseen internet disruptions. However, by implementing a robust Business Continuity Plan (BCP), you can substantially minimise the impact of such incidents. A meticulously crafted BCP identifies critical functions, establishes connectivity redundancy, outlines effective communication strategies, and prepares for data backup and recovery – all essential components for fortifying business resilience.
Cyber Attacks
There has been an increased a surge in cyber threats, underscoring the heightened importance of robust cybersecurity measures. As most industries increasingly integrates digital technologies, there arises an urgent need to invest in comprehensive prevention, detection, and response capabilities. Adapting to the evolving threat landscape is paramount. A proactive and collaborative approach to cybersecurity crisis management is not only essential for safeguarding operations but also plays a pivotal role in enhancing the overall resilience of the global supply chain in the digital age.

Events and Workshops
Emergency Management for Maritime Summit
Our esteemed Managing Director, John Gawne, chaired the 7th Emergency Management for Maritime Summit in Singapore on November 8th and 9th. During the event, he delivered two impactful presentations. The first covered strategic design and planning of emergency management for ports, maritime organisations, oil rigs, and vessels. The second presentation focused on a concise cyber response playbook, a three-page document mobilising Crisis, Emergency Management and Business Continuity, IT, and Communication’s Teams.
Bushire Mitigation Workshop
In the realm of bushfire mitigation, collaboration and understanding are pivotal. The pitfalls of making assumptions about stakeholders were evident in a workshop we facilitated where initial beliefs about an environmental group proved incorrect. This case underscored the risks of hasty conclusions and highlighted the importance of the “seek to understand and then be understood” principle for avoiding misinterpretations and fostering effective collaboration in bushfire mitigation.

As the festive season approaches, we want to inform everyone that our office will be closed for Christmas to allow our team to spend quality time with their loved ones. Our closure dates will be from 12noon 22nd December to 8th January.
