Birchman has been engaged in a trusted advisor capacity by the marine industry in Queensland.

Birchman has successfully completed an initial engagement for Marine Queensland to assess the industry impact and risk of the impending Personal Property Securities Reform. Marine Queensland is the peak industry body for the marine industry in Queensland encompassing marine retailers, brokers, marinas and manufacturers.

The project leveraged Birchman Queensland’s collaboration model with legal advice on the project being provided by a local law firm.
Birchman Queensland is actively developing their Regulatory Reform practice as a result of significant activity in the reform sector and demand by industry groups and businesses alike.

“Significant regulatory reform, at both a state and national level, is planned for the next couple years. Birchman understands the reform process and the impact on enterprises and is very well placed to support the changes that businesses and industries face.” said Ben Pace, Local Practice Lead.

As a result of the initial success Birchman are engaging on further strategic projects to assist Marine Queensland in establishing an industry-wide framework to support the management of future reforms to the industry.
