The following text is the transcript of a video presentation by Rural Solutions SA Executive Director, Locky McLaren.

Welcome to Rural Solutions SA

As the name suggests, we run a range of rural programs and services for governments, commercial customers and regional communities.

What makes us different from conventional government agencies or pure commercial operators?

We are highly connected practical consultants who want to make a real difference, delivering on the ground solutions for our customers:

Delivered mostly by project teams based in the local communities, consultants who know the key issues and who can adapt their specialist skills and services to exactly meet local circumstances.

These cover environmental, primary industry, business and community issues.

Everything from emergency recovery, waste management and landscape rehabilitation; export development and business feasibility studies to planning the future of an entire industry or region.

In Rural Solutions SA, we aim to:

• Enhance primary industries value chains (helping them secure and grow their markets)
• Integrate environmental management (into the daily practices of primary industries and communities)
• Support regional communities in adopting change (for their survival and growth) and
• Enable business improvements (to strengthen Rural Solutions SA’s performance and value to its customers)

People are our business

• our customers drive our business. We develop and deliver services and programs to exactly meet their needs.
• Our consultants are our most important resource as they contain the skills and knowledge inherent in our consultancy services – and we are backed by world-class lab services.

We offer a very broad range of specialist services… and for a more detailed tour, please go to our website menu.

We look forward to exploring how we might work with you to achieve something special.
