What We Do
Capability Delivery
As professional and seasoned project managers, the Desert Road team knows how to deliver projects and programmes on time and within budget. We have a strong track record of turning failing projects and programmes into industry leading examples of what can be achieved in a cohesive operating environment. Feel free to contact us for recent examples.
All New Zealand Government agencies have a fiscal responsibility to invest and spend taxpayer money wisely. Desert Road follows and promotes Treasury’s ‘Better Business Case’ model and All Of Government (AoG) Rules of Procurement to ensure a commercially robust and evidence based approach to capability procurement.

Capability Definition
Capability definition is the translation of high level intent (national level strategy and policy) into organisation level capability definition documents. Getting this right is vital to creating a sound foundation for any capability framework. At Desert Road we assist the client by advising on or leading the development of capability definition documents that will then become the capstone for subsequent project artefacts.
Requirements Definition
Well written requirements significantly reduce procurement risk. It is important to find the balance between providing enough detail to inform the market of your needs without limiting the scope for potential suppliers to provide you with innovative solutions. We exercise strategic thinking and empathy in our communication with end-users to better define user and system requirements that will be used to initiate capability procurement.
