CONSULTING STAFF & ASSOCIATES

Our CEO is Dr Neale Draper (BA Anthrop. Uni. QLD 1978; MA Anthrop. Uni. New Mexico 1983; PhD Anthrop. Uni. New Mexico 1992), an anthropologist and archaeologist with more than 30 years experience in heritage and native title consultancy work, government heritage management and law enforcement, University teaching, and cultural tourism work with Aboriginal communities.

The ACHM management team is committed to the principles of continuous improvement. All employees are committed to the quality policy and are aware of its benefits to customer satisfaction, internal processes and the goals and objectives of ACHM.

ACHM adheres strictly to a defined set of ethical principles. ACHM consultants are members of the Australian Anthropological Society (AAS), the Australian Association of Consultant Archaeologists Inc. (AACAI), the Australian Archaeological Association (AAA), the Australian and New Zealand Forensic Sciences Society (ANZFSS), Spatial Sciences Institute (SSI), as well as other professional associations. These associations incorporate established sets of ethical guidelines to which members pledge compliance, and which guide relationships with clients, colleagues, employees and students, and Aboriginal representatives and communities.

ACHM currently employs more than 30 permanent consulting staff and a similar number of casual consultants. Specialist associate staff are also available, including historian, video ethnographer, remote sensing (GPR), and landscape heritage consultant roles, all provided seamlessly within an ACHM project team. This dynamic structure allows ACHM to provide comprehensive, flexible services for a wide range of projects. We also regularly work as a part of multidisciplinary teams on a range of large projects. Our experience is often invaluable in ensuring that complex heritage issues are understood and managed successfully.

The flexible structure and dynamic composition of an ACHM project team offers unrivalled experience and flexibility to manage large and extremely complex heritage management issues or smaller projects as required.
