Enterprise architecture, cybersecurity, cloud engineering, and digital transformation for Queensland Government and local councils.

What we deliver for government

InnovateX Solutions provides specialist ICT consulting services to Queensland Government departments, local councils, and public sector organisations. We’re an approved supplier on three government procurement panels, and our team brings hands-on experience embedded within complex government ICT environments.

Government technology has its own constraints: competing priorities, legacy system limitations, procurement complexity, and security requirements that go well beyond the private sector. Our services are built around delivering architecture, security, and engineering work that ships on government timelines.

Enterprise & Solution Architecture

Architecture leadership for your programs. We connect business intent to technical delivery across multi-project government environments.

Cloud Platform Engineering

Azure environment design, deployment, and optimisation. Secure landing zones, infrastructure-as-code, and PROTECTED-ready architectures aligned with the ASD Secure Cloud blueprint.

DevSecOps & Automation

CI/CD pipeline design, IaC modules, automated compliance testing, and platform engineering. Helps project teams move faster while staying secure.

Cybersecurity & ISM Compliance

Security assessments, Essential Eight implementation, ISM maturity reviews, and strategic roadmaps for securing government information assets up to PROTECTED.

Digital Transformation & Modernisation

Strategic roadmaps, legacy system modernisation, and application migration. We use proven patterns like strangler fig and pace the work to government timelines and risk appetite.

ICT Strategy & Governance

Independent ICT strategy, governance framework design, technology roadmaps, and business case preparation for government executives and steering committees.

How we engage with government

Our engagement model is designed to work within government procurement, governance, and delivery frameworks. Whether you need an embedded architect for 12 months or a targeted 6-week security assessment, our process adapts to your agency’s requirements.

01

Scope & Procure

Engage us through ICTSS.2403, LB308, or LB334. We work with your procurement team to define scope, deliverables, and engagement terms. We support SOW, time-and-materials, and embedded resource models.

02

Discover & Assess

Stakeholder engagement, environment analysis, and current-state assessment. We document your strategic drivers, compliance obligations, existing architecture, and capability gaps.

03

Design & Deliver

Develop and deliver the agreed outputs: architecture artefacts, security roadmaps, cloud infrastructure, governance frameworks, or hands-on engineering. All aligned with ISM, QGEA, QGCDG, and Essential Eight.

04

Embed & Uplift

We work alongside your internal teams to embed capability, transfer knowledge, and ensure architecture, security posture, and engineering practices sustain beyond our engagement.
