Prophet IAM undertake a wide range of policy and planning development projects, drawing on the more than 60 years experience that its directors have in local government parks management and operation.
Whether it is a cemetery strategy, reserve management plan, or physical activity strategy, Prophet IAM will always produce a document which is able to be implemented within the local government political environment, as well as enabling things to get done on the ground. A strength of Prophet IAM is our ability to produce outcomes which are practical and relevant to the needs of the Parks and Recreation manager .
