“Do nothing in haste, look well to each step, and from the beginning think what may be the end”
Edward Whymper, Mountaineer 1861

Mission

Our business and government clients see 451 Consulting as trusted advisors and capability partners in the formulation and realisation of strategic and operational goals

Value Set

The 451 Consulting Value Set is to demonstrate - Insight, Integrity and Value - in all dealings with clients, employees and contractors

The significance of 451 degrees Fahrenheit

451 Fahrenheit is the flash point of paper... that is, the temperature at which paper catches fire and vanishes. Our company chose this symbol for two reasons:

1. The disappearance of paper aligns to the concept of a paperless office, where processes are fully optimised, client excellence is never compromised, and staff are freed to perform interesting tasks. This is a good metaphor for 451 Consulting as we assist clients to be more efficient and effective; and

2. A book written by Ray Bradbury in 1954 called "Fahrenheit 451" remains a classic today - It is a highly recommended read.

Our commitment to clients

1. Clients benefits from genuine relationships;

2. We convert strategy into action and deliver operational improvement allowing our clients to achieve their goals sooner;

3. We support our clients as requested, at any stage in their strategy into action journey;

4. We deliver client excellence every time through our quality system and our exceptional people (who must meet exceedingly high recruitment standards);

5. We know our Client's business and challenges so well AND deliver excellence with value every time, such that we are our Client's best commercial option;

6. We respect our Client's existing culture, 'seamlessly adapt' to their organisation, and help them position for the future;
