About ACG

WHO WE ARE

Alderuccio Consulting Group (ACG) is a boutique executive advisory firm delivering high-impact support across safety, governance, strategy and infrastructure delivery.

Founded by Joe Alderuccio, ACG is built on decades of experience leading complex programs, major infrastructure projects and organisational transformation across government and industry.

We exist to provide organisations with trusted, practical and senior-level capability — without the inefficiencies of traditional consulting models.

OUR APPROACH

We don’t sit on the sidelines.
We work alongside leaders and teams to:

Diagnose real
issues

We take the time to understand what’s actually driving underperformance, risk or complexity — not just what’s visible on the surface. Our experience means we ask the right questions, identify root causes quickly and give you a clear picture of what needs to change and why.

Provide clear,
actionable advice

We don’t deal in reports that gather dust. Everything we deliver is direct, practical and designed to be used — clear recommendations, grounded in reality, that your people can act on straight away.

Support implementation where required

Advice is only valuable if it lands. Where you need it, we stay involved through implementation — working alongside your team to make sure changes stick and outcomes are achieved.

Build capability within your organisation

Our goal is never dependency. We work to transfer knowledge, strengthen your team and leave your organisation in a better position than we found it — with the skills and systems to sustain improvement long after our engagement ends.

Our focus is simple: make things better, and make them stick.
