Overview

Burke Cybersecurity Consulting is a specialist Australian Government prime contractor that simplifies technology procurement and transforms vendor relationships into strategic assets.

For many government agencies, procuring technology from global leaders like Red Hat presents a significant challenge: a "contractual impasse" between mandatory government terms and the vendor's standard commercial agreements. This is the problem we solve.

Our Prime Contractor Model provides a proven, compliant bridge. We establish a head agreement with your agency under your mandated terms, while managing a separate back-to-back agreement with the technology vendor. This de-risks the entire process for government, enabling seamless and compliant access to essential Red Hat solutions.

Our service is strictly non-technical and vendor-agnostic. We provide expert, independent account management to ensure you achieve maximum value from your investment. Our proprietary Vendor Management Framework (VMF) is a structured methodology used to optimise costs, monitor performance, ensure compliance, and mitigate risk throughout the contract lifecycle. Our proactive approach to licence optimisation has delivered tangible results, including a 33% cost saving on Red Hat licenses for the WA Department of Transport.

As a 100% Australian-owned SME with a 100% neurodivergent workforce, partnering with us delivers a direct social return on investment, allowing your agency to meet its social procurement and local industry development objectives in a meaningful and measurable way. We are your independent, expert partner, focused solely on your success.

It's been an absolute pleasure to work with you.
