South West Corridor Regional Shared Services Project

There has been a trend towards shared services in state and local governments across Australia to enhance delivery of services and to reduce costs.

 “A disturbing feature of the current debate on shared services has been the absence of a well articulated economic and political rationale for this form of service delivery, a lack of analysis of alternative models of shared service provision and a neglect of available empirical evidence.

The Western Australian local Government Association have prepared a discussion document “The Journey: Sustainability into the future” encouraging regional cooperation and supporting shared services.

This scoping study seeks to identify the most prospective services that could be delivered through collaboration with one or more of the six regional local authorities.

The South West Group Board has agreed to assess opportunities for regional collaboration on delivery of services and has agreed to commission a scoping study in partnership with the Department of Local Government and Regional Development.
