State Government NSW
From roads and rail to justice, health and education, the NSW Government has considerable influence in driving socially, economically and environmentally sustainable growth and development to deliver thriving communities.
Our NSW Government Focus
The NSW Government has outlined its key strategic priorities this term, including lifting education standards, improving healthcare and caring for the environment.
The Government is also delivering an ambitious infrastructure program, which includes the largest number of projects underway in any state or territory in Australia.
At Maddocks, we understand that government needs to deliver results. We provide the NSW Government with commercial advice which is sensitive to the political context.
This approach has seen us build a long track record of assisting the NSW Government in delivering on its priorities, from transport infrastructure and water and gas utilities to planning, procurement and employment issues.
