Our Story and Journey

More than 16 years ago, two companies with complementary expertise - Australasia Consulting Group (ACG) Pty Ltd and Output DSJ Pty Ltd - came together to solve an information logistics and governance problem. The primary problem that needed to be addressed was how to keep all of the people and their activities together in one place that could be shared, tracked, monitored and reported for progress against outcomes. This was particularly relevant for sharing information securely, appropriately and sensitively, for shared Programs and Projects between multiple organisations.

In each generation of development the system we developed grew, module by module, to become a comprehensive Program Management System suited to many contexts. Although originally designed for Research Management & Governance, our system is now used in Health and many other contexts where Programs need to be managed.

Our Clients say...

"Reading through the last of the emails concerning the wind-up of the Cotton CRC (Friday 3 May 2013) I feel a great sense of sadness that the CRC is now closed. I also realise that life must go on knowing that there are a plethora of other opportunities on which to be busy. I am so pleased that you made contact with me as I really do need to thank you and your team for your support over the seven years of the Cotton CRC.

The very first think I want to say about Centric is that YOU ARE THE BEST !!!!.

Cotton CRC ran our whole CRC with Centric. It was invaluable. It's exactly the program/management system we were expecting and hoping for. It meshed smoothly with all of our manual systems and procedures to achieve the exact management of our projects we need to get the results and outcomes for the CRC. I forget the exact number of projects but I know it cover about five A3 pages when listed. We also had an enormous number of in-kind contributions to manage as well which Centric made easy to do. Centric was straight forward to implement and manage. It was also easy to learn and the reports were exactly what we needed for Management, Accounting and Board reporting. Our researchers, although dubious at the start, all contributed to the reporting requirements monthly and quarterly as requested. All of them appreciated the easy to use format of the Centric System and most didn't even read the user instructions sent out; they just logged in and completed the task as requested.

Personally I'd like to see every CRC in Australia use Centric to its full potential. In a nutshell. Centric makes the management of projects in the R & D context easy and efficient with a minimum of fuss.

I'm not sure what else to say, as I could go on about what our systems were and what we used Centric for. I Just want to make sure that you had a big thank you from all of us that were involved with Cotton CRC. We just appreciated the simple and professional way that Centric fitted into our CRC and really helped to manage it without the use of external spread-sheets and any other software other than a simple accounting system to actually pay the bills and manage the bank account. Congratulations. All the best in the future � I'll be keeping in touch."
