Leveraging ACCAP GO6332 and National Funding Frameworks
Executive Overview
This whitepaper outlines a comprehensive consultancy and advisory framework for small
residential aged care providers seeking to leverage the Aged Care Capital Assistance
Program (ACCAP) – GO6332 Critical Infrastructure Projects for digital transformation.
Australia’s aged care sector is undergoing significant reform through the Aged Care Act 2024
and the Aged Care Data & Digital Strategy 2024–2029. Combined with the government’s $18.3 billion reform package and $966.5 million ACCAP program, these initiatives create

Key Objectives:

Demonstrate alignment between organisational needs and government priorities.
Provide a structured roadmap for funding, governance, and benefit realisation.
