Firms that have completed an approved Enterprise Connect Business Review or an equivalent process can apply for a Tailored Advisory Service Grant.
Successful applicants will be required to sign a deed of grant (.pdf, 180KB). The deed is a legal contract between the firm and the Commonwealth which sets out the responsibilities of both parties.
Firms will also be required to report on the outcomes of their Tailored Advisory Service project. Reports (.pdf, 39KB) are due 30 days, 12 months and 24 months after the completion of the project, as set out in the deed of grant. Information contained in the reports will be treated as commercial-in-confidence and will assist in the evaluation of Enterprise Connect services. Firms will also need to submit a Tailored Advisory Services Grant Declaration (.pdf, 23KB) on the completion of the service.
