We help raise your business profile with key decision-makers, providing strategic advice and agency liaison to support project approvals and policy alignment. Through objective measurement and a results-driven approach, we track performance and clearly demonstrate your success at every stage.
ReGen Strategic advises organisations whose commercial success depends on decisions made by government. We are registered lobbyists under the Australian and Western Australian Register of Lobbyists and we work to the WA Lobbyists Code of Conduct and our own Lobbying Policy.
Our team has held senior roles in ministerial offices, government agencies, peak bodies, and industry. That means we understand how policy gets made, how decisions get taken, and how to frame an argument so it lands. We work at state, Federal, and local level across WA’s priority sectors, including critical minerals, renewable energy, infrastructure, housing, defence industries, and agribusiness.
Clients bring us in to secure approvals under the State Agreement framework, navigate Commonwealth programs including CEFC, ARENA, Powering Australia, and the National Reconstruction Fund, and shape the policy environment they operate in. The work covers stakeholder and political mapping, positioning, submissions, briefings, strategic counsel on timing, and direct engagement with ministers, advisors, agency leaders, and members of parliament.
Not every issue needs a government relations campaign, and some are better handled another way. When engagement is the right answer, we build long-term relationships with decision makers on your behalf based on a clear strategy.

Ngala operates a specialist residential parenting service providing critical early intervention support to Western Australian families. By 2024, rising costs and insufficient funding meant the service was drawing on reserves and facing closure, placing an essential, evidence-based support service at significant risk.
Developed a clear government engagement and messaging strategy endorsed by the Ngala Board
Positioned the service as a critical early intervention asset aligned with government priorities
Led coordinated engagement with Ministers, senior departmental officials and advisers
Built bipartisan awareness and support among Members of Parliament across all parties
Provided strategic advice on communications and media engagement to strengthen public visibility
Supported consistent messaging across stakeholder, sector and community engagement
The campaign resulted in both major political parties committing to fund the service ahead of the State Election. The incoming Cook Labor Government delivered $40.1 million to Ngala, securing and expanding the residential parenting service for WA families. The outcome represented a major breakthrough in early intervention, removed financial uncertainty and reinforced Ngala’s leadership in family support. The campaign also significantly increased Ngala’s visibility through strong media coverage and stakeholder engagement, highlighting the organisation’s impact and value across Western Australia.
Case Study
OFFSITE is a Western Australian advanced manufacturing company delivering modern methods of construction. Despite strong technical capability, existing procurement models and policy settings limited adoption, creating barriers to early opportunities and making it difficult to demonstrate impact at scale in partnership with government.
Developed a targeted government relations and stakeholder engagement strategy
Translated technical manufacturing capability into a clear value proposition for decision makers
Prepared tailored Ministerial and agency briefing materials focused on outcomes and risk reduction
Engaged housing agencies, Treasury and central agencies to build understanding and alignment
Captured and documented stakeholder feedback to inform advocacy and next steps
Supported development of a government-backed pilot project proposal to demonstrate capability
The engagement secured government support to progress a pilot housing project in Brabham, providing OFFSITE with a live platform to demonstrate its technology. The work increased awareness of modern construction methods across government and aligned OFFSITE’s capability with housing policy objectives. The pilot established a practical pathway to scale future opportunities and positioned OFFSITE as a credible, delivery-ready contributor to housing innovation in Western Australia.
