Working in the defence industry requires an “evidence based”, higher standard of business operations.
To work in the defence industry you must be:
- Certified to relevant management standards.
- A member of the Defence Industry Security Program (DISP).
- Able to demonstrate that your IT systems are secure and cannot be compromised.
All of this is confusing, complicated and an ongoing treadmill of endless activities.
Introducing our Defense Industry Readiness Program that helps get you ready to meet the demanding standards of the defence industry at an investment
IMPROVE YOUR BUSINESS PROCESSES
One of the great side effects of getting certified is that your business runs better, everyone on the team knows how things are meant to be done and training new team members becomes easier as everything important is documented.
We only take on projects that we can deliver.
When we commit to a project, we are confident in our ability to deliver it on time, meeting deadlines with efficiency and professionalism.

What Our Customers Say
“PEER engaged HDQ Consulting to undertake an independent organisational cyber security assessment as part of the Board Governance program. This involved benchmarking PEER’s environment against the Essential 8 Security Standards with a list of recommended actions. Greg and the team undertook a structured hardening of PEER’s Microsoft 365 system to reduce vulnerabilities and improve PEER’s security score. The HDQ Consulting team worked well with our existing IT providers, our IT Department and staff stakeholders through easy and relatable communication and a controlled project management approach whilst giving consideration to the operational needs of the business. HDQ Consulting has been a valuable partner in improving PEER’s cyber awareness and security improvements.”
“Scouts Australia (SA Branch) has engaged HDQ Consulting to provide their expertise on a number of projects to allow Scouts SA to achieve as a non profit organisation succeed with its areas of focus. Project management of new systems being implemented have been critical to business operations and the work provided by HDQ has assisted greatly in achieving these outcomes.
HDQ was also engaged to provide a cyber security report to measure our systems and processes against ISO27001. This report has provided the organisation with an important platform of work to increase our cyber security awareness and practices. HDQ has provided Scouts SA with a range of options for our business operations across multiple sites. I have no hesitation in recommending the professional work and expertise of HDQ Consulting as a technology consultant.”
“A&D Australasia commenced a business relationship with HDQ Consulting during June of 2021, which is now ongoing. Our initial interest in the HDQ Consulting services related to the Cyber Security area but we are now aware that HDQ offers a much wider range of IT support services.
HDQ have displayed high level of professionalism in our business dealings, which when combined with the very high level of expertise they possess, makes HDQ an excellent business partner for any organisation looking to control their IT operations. Greg Hill, the CEO of HDQ, presented to all of our staff in relation to Cyber Security and his impact was immediate as our staff become immediately aware of the threats our business faced and how they could play their part in protecting our company. HDQ ran a full “health check” of our business in relation to Cyber Security and presented a very detailed report into our cyber health, which contained an easy to understand list of actions, prioritised in urgency.
I would strongly recommend HDQ Consulting as a potential business partner, if your organisation is looking for highly competent IT support, presented in a manner that is easy to interpret and implement.”
“HDQ Consultants experience was unbelievably valuable in helping us to successfully implement the new system. We were in a world of pain when the previous consultant left the project unfinished. Now I can get real-time data quickly, so I can see a potential financial issue immediately and fix it before it is a problem in the business.
Thanks to Greg and his team for all their efforts in project managing a successful implementation. I highly recommend Greg and his team for any NetSuite rollout!”
“HDQ and Greg listened to our issues, our problems and what we wanted, he solved our challenges, gave us practical actions and shared his knowledge to show us how to best use Teamwork for our needs. We would definitely recommend their services as we wouldn’t have been able to implement Teamwork as successfully without their help.”
“There are three words I use to sum up HDQ Consulting; Professionalism, Thoroughness and Value. HDQ has been working with Eka Software Solutions and Greg and his team have nailed it in terms of a best fit solution. The HDQ team has expertise and is well versed in the latest solutions for the business. I recommend HDQ for any needs that you may have in this area.”
“What we appreciated most about working with Greg and his team was their ability to cut through the predictable complexities and help us create a system that is easy to follow, easy to use and is not over bearing to maintain.
We have had many questions answered quickly and efficiently and we are very happy and will continue to use HDQ Consulting in the future.”
Karyn Gee
Accounts Technician & IMS Manager at Civil Mining Group Pty. Ltd.“HDQ implemented the new system into our retail stores and provided us with support anytime we found something tricky to resolve. We definitely recommend their services as we wouldn’t be able to implement the software or update data as successfully without their help.”
“Adelaide Belt & Hose hired HDQ Consulting to assist us with improving our systems and procedures. Greg’s deep range of knowledge, talent and skills ensures our business stays compliant and continues to grow efficiently. I fully endorse HDQ Consulting and Greg – he is like a trusted member of our team.”
“HDQ implemented the new system after the other organisation found it impossible to do because they took the time to understand our business processes. I’m very happy with the implementation and the ongoing customer support to myself and my team.”
