Government Vocational Provider:

Background:
Among Australia’s most prominent government-owned vocational providers, the institution harbored an ambitious vision. Their goal? Establish four commercial venues at their Gold Coast campus. But such expansion needed to be based on a triad of core determinants: student placement outcomes, commercial viability, and an unwavering commitment to sustainability.
The Challenge:
The sheer scale of the venture, combined with the multifaceted criteria for feasibility, made it a formidable challenge. The endeavor required a synthesis of in-depth research, market insights, and a strategic mindset to envision a blueprint that seamlessly melded profitability with sustainability and student outcomes.
Our Solution:
Empirical Research meets Industry Acumen: Borderless plunged into comprehensive research, marrying empirical data with profound industry insights. This thorough exploration not only gauged the feasibility of the commercial outlets but also meticulously crafted a pathway towards their realization.
With a rigorous 10-week timeline, Borderless culminated this expansive research into four actionable business plans. These weren’t just roadmaps but strategic guides tailored to ensure each venue not only stood commercially viable but also upheld the institution’s commitment to sustainability and student placements.
Outcome:
The Gold Coast campus is now poised to inaugurate four commercial outlets, a testament to Borderless’s strategic planning and execution. These venues are not just commercial ventures; they’re symbols of a balanced approach to profitability, student enrichment, and environmental stewardship.

Borderless was approached by one of Australia’s largest government-owned vocational providers to undertake three feasibility studies for four commercial venues at their Gold Coast campus, later developed into formal business plans. The determining factors of the feasibility were a balance of student placement outcomes, commercial profitability and strict sustainability criteria.
Borderless commenced in-depth research and analysis, pairing our strong industry knowledge with empirical studies to deliver four detailed and executable business plans in under 10 weeks.
As a result, the Gold Coast campus will open with four commercial outlets that are financially profitable, whilst achieving student placement outcomes and simultaneously delivering on sustainability demands.
