Allen + Clarke is taking proactive measures in response to COVID-19 so that we can continue to meet your needs and those of our other clients, while also working to protect the personal health, safety and wellbeing of our people.

Being flexible is part of the fabric of who we are as a company.

Most of our team of 75+ consultants have experience working away from the office – in clients’ premises, on the road, and in their homes. We already have established tools for engagement with clients and communities. In addition to this:

• All of our people are working from home at full capacity. We are constantly monitoring our work arrangements to ensure that our people have the tools they need to work effectively.
• We have been increasing our use of virtual technologies such as Zoom and MS Teams for internal and external communication and collaboration.
• We are continuing to effectively engage with clients and their stakeholders through virtual engagement.

We have extensive subject knowledge in the mass vaccinations, emergency/pandemic planning, and border health fields.

We have worked in these subject areas throughout New Zealand and the Pacific in partnership with government and the WHO. In addition to progressing our current projects with our usual level of enthusiasm and efficiency, Allen + Clarke has capacity to provide any support or advice you may need surrounding mass vaccinations, emergency/pandemic planning, and border health.

We have proven experience in effectively engaging with clients and their stakeholders using virtual technologies.

We also recognise the importance of embracing Kaupapa Māori practices in our work. We will do our best to ensure all virtual engagement continues to be culturally safe and appropriate for Māori, as well as for Pacific People and other communities.

Further information about how we engage with clients and communities using virtual technologies can be found here. This includes information about how we are making it easy for clients and communities to engage with us.

We can continue to deliver to a high standard under changing circumstances.

We recognise how challenging these times can be. We are here for you, and we encourage you to talk to us about how we can work together and adapt to the challenges that we face.

We will remain flexible and will work alongside all of our clients to meet their needs.
