Delivering complex Commonwealth ICT programs across Canberra since 2024 — from delivery assurance to national data and geospatial platforms.
Commonwealth ICT programs, delivered.
Black Mountain Consulting brings the governance, delivery discipline and security-cleared specialists that complex Commonwealth ICT initiatives live or die on — so your program moves from stalled to shipped, and stays defensible under scrutiny.
Who We Are
Black Mountain Consulting (BMC) is a Canberra-based firm providing advisory, delivery, and ICT specialist services to Australian Government clients. We support organisations operating in complex regulatory and policy environments by helping them plan, coordinate, and deliver technology-enabled initiatives where governance, risk, and stakeholder considerations are critical.
Drawing on experience across advisory, delivery, and embedded specialist roles, BMC delivers professional and consulting services alongside flexible ICT labour hire — enabling agencies to address delivery challenges and scale capability with confidence.
What We Do
Four ways we get government programs where they need to be
Program Assurance
Independent eyes on a program that has to succeed. We find where governance, delivery or risk is quietly going wrong and give you a credible, board-ready path back to green — before it becomes a headline.
Delivery Turnaround
Cleared, embedded specialists who step into stalled or under-pressure initiatives and restore momentum — no six-month ramp-up, no learning on your budget. The right people, delivering from week one.
Investment & Planning
Business cases, delivery roadmaps and options analysis that survive scrutiny — so your funding holds up in front of the ERC and your program starts on solid ground instead of shaky assumptions.
Data & AI Advisory
Practical guidance on data, digital and AI initiatives in regulated environments — from strategy and readiness through to governed delivery. When you’re ready to build, we build it. See AI Systems below.
AI Systems · build, own, operate
AI systems, built to run in production
Building a prototype is straightforward. Running one dependably in daily operation, under real security and commercial obligations, is the hard part.
BMC builds and runs bespoke AI systems for Australian Government agencies and industry. We build the system on your data, you own it, and we operate it for you.
Built on your data
A system built around your data and processes, not a generic tool bent to fit. It runs in regulated and Commonwealth environments, with the evaluation and controls that make its outputs defensible.
Ownership and licence
You keep your data and configuration, and hold a perpetual licence to the system. There is no lock-in; you can bring operation in-house whenever it suits.
Operated for you
We run the system under an agreed service level, covering monitoring, maintenance and support, or hand it to your team once it is established.
