ABOUT

Members of the Cofluence team designed and led the Red Tape Blueprints program: an 18-month, $9.9m pilot program aimed at assisting Councils to build their capacity to help small business in their community, while identifying and trialling new collaborative systems and practices for Councils to improve their overall efficiency and effectiveness.

 

Under the program, supported through a $6.2m grant from the Australian Government’s Regulation Reduction Incentive Fund, 41 NSW Councils piloted new ways to make it easier for small business to understand and meet their compliance obligations.

 

The program was recognised in the AIIA iAwards for Government and was runner-up in the AGIMO e-Awards for e-Government Excellence.
