Our Experience
At Proximity, we provide end-to-end procurement support to help government clients achieve value-for-money outcomes with confidence and compliance.

Our teams advise on many of the Commonwealth’s most important and high-profile projects, and we’re trusted to deliver at every stage of the procurement lifecycle.
