John L Bates & Associates (JLB) was established in Adelaide in 1988, after recognising a need to assist organisations, hands-on, implement best practice initiatives.

Today, JLB has grown nationally and ranks among the largest in Australia, proudly assisting more than 600 organisations in business development, particularly implementing management systems.

While Head Office remains in South Australia, we have established branches in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Darwin, and consult throughout Australia and South East Asia. All of our consultants are experienced professionals who work together to deliver the best possible service to our clients.

Our success is proven by our many satisfied clients, we listen to them and tailor programs to suit their individual needs. These programs are delivered by an experienced, committed and dedicated team, at a fixed cost with no hidden extras. We provide a unique "hands-on" service by becoming part of your working team and striving for one common goal: yours.

To support our philosophy and maintain our excellent reputation, JLB was the first and remains one of only very few management consultancies to achieve quality certification to AS/NZS ISO 9001, signifying....

"we practice what we preach".

Implementing best practice management systems is essential if your organisation is to look to the future with certainty and confidence.

I trust you find our Web Site interesting and we welcome the opportunity to be of service.
