Executive Summary
Digital transformation in government is often measured by delivery speed and cost management. When transformation is done well, it creates lasting capability and opens opportunity for people who have historically been excluded from the digital economy.
That is the intent behind DB Results’ partnerships with the Queensland Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and the Yarrabah and Cherbourg Digital Service Centres. By embedding an on-Country talent model we are strengthening DPI’s testing foundations while creating meaningful, sustainable careers for First Nations Australians.
A different model of delivery
Through our partnerships with both the Yarrabah and Cherbourg Digital Service Centres, DB Results is investing in a delivery model that integrates on-Country talent development into how we work, not as a parallel initiative, but as part of the core engagement.
Rather than a bolt-on inclusion program, this is a deliberate approach to resourcing that brings First Nations practitioners into structured testing workflows and creates career pathways grounded in real delivery outcomes, supported by experienced practitioners alongside them.
What this means for DB Results
From a delivery perspective, the approach strengthens DB Results’ testing capability in ways that extend well beyond the current engagement.
It provides scalable capacity that responds to changing project demands without the lead times associated with traditional resourcing models. Structured quality frameworks and experienced oversight sit alongside the development of emerging practitioners, so delivery standards are maintained as the team grows. Over time, this builds a talent pipeline that reduces long-term dependency on ad hoc resourcing, something that matters considerably for agencies managing complex, ongoing digital programs.
Conclusion
DB Results is committed to this model because we believe the future of digital delivery is not only about better systems, it is about better outcomes for people.
