Whole-of-government efficiency is my mandate. For years, we saw agencies rebuilding the same capabilities over and over—a massive waste of time and money. Holo-Org is our solution for this. We use it to build modular, reusable AI services, or "agents," for common tasks like identity verification, payment processing, or grant eligibility checks.

Samantha Riley, an Enterprise Architect at the DTA, sketches a diagram of a reusable platform component. The diagram shows a central Holo-Org module connecting to multiple agency systems, illustrating the "develop-once" principle.

In Defence, security can’t be an afterthought. Holo-Org has allowed us to embed security directly into our development pipelines—what we call DevSecOps. As developers write code, AI agents continuously scan it for potential vulnerabilities, check for dependencies with known exploits, and ensure it complies with the Information Security Manual (ISM).

Arjun Singh, a Cyber Security Engineer at Defence, watches a DevSecOps pipeline on his monitor. Code flows through various automated security gates, with Holo-Org flagging a potential vulnerability in real-time. Arjun’s expression is focused and in control.

Government cloud spending runs into the hundreds of millions. My job is to ensure we get value for every dollar. Holo-Org’s FinOps (Financial Operations) agents are a game-changer. The system monitors our entire government cloud footprint, identifying underutilized resources, recommending more cost-effective instance types, and automating the shutdown of non-production environments outside of work hours.

Maria Garcia, a Cloud Economist from Finance, reviews a consolidated cloud spending dashboard. The charts show significant cost savings and optimized resource allocation across the government, thanks to Holo-Org’s recommendations.

The DAT Act was created to help us use data better, but implementing it securely is complex. Holo-Org provides the technical framework to do it right. When an agency requests data from us, Holo-Org manages the entire API transaction. It authenticates the request, checks that it aligns with a registered data sharing purpose, applies any necessary de-identification or confidentiality rules, and securely logs the entire transaction for audit.

Liam Murphy, a Data Architect at the Australian Bureau of Statistics, designs a secure data sharing API. A diagram on his screen shows Holo-Org managing the data request, applying DAT Act rules, and logging the transaction.

Our mandate is to preserve Australia’s story, and in the digital age, that means managing billions of digital assets. Holo-Org is our indispensable partner in this. From the moment a document is created in an agency, Holo-Org’s archival agents can be configured to automatically apply the correct metadata, assess its long-term value, and assign the appropriate retention and disposal sentence based on the Archives Act.

Chen Wei, a Digital Asset Manager at the National Archives, watches as Holo-Org automatically categorizes and applies retention policies to a batch of newly created government documents. The process is seamless and efficient.

Discovery for a major litigation case used to mean dispatching a team of junior lawyers to manually review hundreds of thousands of documents—a process that was slow, expensive, and prone to human error. Holo-Org’s eDiscovery agents have transformed this. We can now point the AI at a dataset of millions of documents, and it uses natural language understanding to identify and tag relevant files based on search terms and concepts.

Eleanor Vance, a Principal Legal Officer, supervises an automated document review process. A screen shows Holo-Org rapidly searching and tagging millions of documents for relevance to a case, drastically cutting down discovery time.

Keeping our internal policies aligned with ever-changing legislation is a monumental task. Holo-Org’s legislative tracking agent monitors parliamentary feeds and gazettes.
