Securing grants and council's long-term finances

Efficient grant, project and asset management

Unprecedented levels of funding available for councils

The current global pandemic has contributed to an unprecedented level of funding being made available to local governments to support continued economic recovery.

Following on from our list of current grants applicable to QLD councils, the recently announced Queensland Government state budget has outlined a $56B infrastructure program over four years. For Local governments, this translates to a significant wave of competitive and allocated funding for local projects.

Consider the impact on your long-term financial planning

In 2021, councils who are proactively maturing projects to be application ready will be best placed to maximise these opportunities. More importantly, these opportunities also present the need for a well-considered long-term financial plan, which incorporates increased risk and exposure that councils might face as a result.

Having a strategic approach to the funding being sourced now, coupled with expert project delivery and asset management planning, can help ensure that you properly account for additional reporting, resources, and asset management requirements, deriving all the benefits from having a ‘whole of life’ approach, safe-guarding your council’s finances from the future impact of current investments.
