DataMaster Australia Pty Limited is a privately-owned company specialising in the collection of the core data required to promote business growth, employment growth and skills growth within your local or regional area.

This core data, based on the same statistical frameworks used by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ANZSIC and ASCO) will facilitate local/regional growth by:

Business

• Identifying the mix of industries serving your community
• Identifying specific sectors of interest eg tourism, manufacturing, food processing or any other sector strategic to your area
• Identifying escape expenditure able to be supplied by existing or new businesses
• Identifying industry clusters to maximise sectoral growth
• Encouraging extra-regional export opportunities

Employment growth

• Identifying employer demand by skill for new employment
• Identifying employer demand for new apprentices/trainees

Skills Growth

• Identifying employer offering school-based apprenticeships by type
• Identifying employers offering work placements by type for students undertaking voc-ed courses as part of their HSC
• Identifying employers offering work experience for students
• Identifying demand for voc-ed courses based on employer demand
• Input-Output Analysis
• Identification of business inputs (purchases excluding labour) from local - international suppliers to identify escape expenditure.
• Identification of business outputs (sales) to local - international clients to identify dependance on local consumption and extra regional export opportunities.

DataMaster has established a significant number of sites which target all or part of the elements listed above (See Clients).

A key component of all community database projects is the raising of community awareness of the objectives of the project and the long term commitment of the host organisation (our client) to maintaining and implementing the information resource.

DataMaster provides training in all aspects of the DataMaster program during the term of the project and provides ongoing support where requested.

DataMaster Australia has also undertaken significant research into employment-related issues such as the relationship between home PCs and employment and constraints to employment (See Reports).
