Procurement Co

What Procurement Co does

Procurement Co Pty Ltd is an Australian-owned specialist procurement and probity consultancy founded in Brisbane in 2013 by directors Ryan Jackson and Heath Jess. The firm operates from offices in Brisbane (head office), Sydney, and Melbourne, serving clients across the east coast of Australia. It delivers a portfolio of six interconnected professional services: Procurement-as-a-Service (outsourced end-to-end procurement delivery), Procurement Advisory (governance, transformation, category management, ESG advisory, policy development), Transaction Management (procurement for major construction, infrastructure, government property, and M&A projects), Probity Advisory & Audit (risk-based probity and integrity assurance), Contract Management (full lifecycle support), and Training (customised capability uplift including Certificate IV delivery via the Procurement Institute partnership).

The company serves two primary client segments: government (federal, state, and local departments and statutory authorities including the Department of Defence, AFP, Transport for NSW, Queensland Government, Victorian DTF, and various councils) and large private sector organisations across energy, resources, infrastructure, healthcare, and education (including Origin Energy, Santos, APA Group, AACo, QUT, and News Corp). Its go-to-market is sales-led, driven by direct engagement, referrals, and listings on federal and state government procurement panels (BuyICT, NSW SCM 0005, Victorian SPC 2020, Defence Support Services Panel, AFP Capability Support Services Panel, Western Sydney Airport panel).

The revenue model is professional services billing on custom multi-year engagements, with pricing not publicly disclosed and quoted per project scope. The company operates with approximately 35 staff, including two co-founder Directors who maintain active oversight on all engagements, and has no disclosed external institutional investment, parent company, or funding rounds. It was recognised as one of The Australian's Best Places to Work in 2025. Underlying technology is not a core asset — the firm sells human expertise rather than a software platform, and there is no evidence of AI/ML tooling in its service delivery.
