We like practical. We like person-to-person. We like professional.
Specialists in NDIS

Who are we?

PQplus has been supporting providers since 2017, helping them register their NDIS businesses, and take command of their Quality and compliance obligations.

We tailor our support to our clients’ objectives and situation. New to the NDIS, or old hands, we listen to their perspectives, and fit in alongside their team.

Through dramatic changes in the NDIS landscape, we’ve kept a close eye on things and kept our clients in-the-know and up-to-date. We’ve developed tools they need – some released as free resources – and pioneered training courses on the NDIS Practice Standards.

We think NDIS providers deserve to feel supported. They take on big responsibilities. They should be able to access real expertise – affordably and reliably. That’s why we’re here.
