RSM has a distinguished history in Australia and overseas, delivering a diverse range of value-added services to the public sector.

As challenges facing governments at all levels escalate due to increased community expectations, regulatory changes, and governance enhancements, RSM is proud to showcase a suite of compelling Victorian Government case studies. These illustrate instances where RSM provided critical subject matter expertise and solutions to state and local government bodies.

 Join us for this webinar to hear from our experts: 

Gerard Sayers, Senior Manager, Data Analytics

Gerard discusses RSM's collaboration with a state government department that developed an in-house AI system using open source Generative AI tools. Our review aligned with the 'National framework for the assurance of AI in government' and resulted in recommendations that significantly reduced hallucinations and improved reliability.

Roger will share how RSM supported a Victorian Government organisation to refresh its fraud and corruption control framework, aligning with AS 8001:2021. The project involved reviewing and updating policies and procedures, refreshing the fraud and corruption risk assessment, and delivering 25 interactive MS Teams training sessions to over 500 employees. He will also highlight the use of employee surveys to monitor workplace culture and the effectiveness of fraud awareness and Public Interest Disclosure (PID) programs.
