Our team members previously worked in senior positions in industry, government, research, and businesses- large and small, across a variety of geographies including Australia, Asia, and Europe. Since coming together as CCR we’ve helped businesses in sectors including energy, mining, resources, manufacturing, processing, infrastructure, construction, and urban development. We have also worked with local, state, and commonwealth governments in Australia, particularly around policy, energy efficiency, planning, infrastructure, and climate change risk and adaptation. If however we don’t have the particular skills required in-house, we have an extended network of partners we can call on to build the right team for the job.

We have experienced the business model that large consultancies work to and we are determined to be different. As a small company we are able to minimize overheads, so our project and hourly rates remain low compared to other similarly qualified companies offering the same quality of services. The success of our business has been based on building long-term relationships with clients who value the quality work we have done for them and return to use our services time and again. They do this because we only provide appropriate and cost-effective services that our clients require, without unnecessary padding, trying to lock them into proprietary systems, or up-selling services they don’t need.

We believe a consultant needs to have a background in science and technology in order to provide clients with practical solutions rather than just ideas and generalizations. All our team members are technologists by training – engineers, physicists, scientists, and have experience applying this in the industry before moving into the world of business and consultancy. Our clients include companies from the process, chemicals, and energy industries, where we have to master complex processes in order to deliver effective solutions. We also have a range of industry specialists to call upon from our extended network should technical expertise be required in a specific industry or process.

As a small company, we have the flexibility to work the way you like or need – be that a standard external consultancy arrangement, as one of a team of sub-contractors, or we can embed our staff to work within your offices using your internal systems. Although a lot of our projects start with compliance requirements of various government schemes, we like to add value to our clients by developing that into opportunities for savings, better processes, or competitive advantage. This is a time of great change in the area of energy and emissions, and with that change comes the opportunity for those who are well informed and quick to act. We can give you that edge.
