Election Management Service

ELECTIONS MANAGEMENT

Conducting an election is a multifaceted process, with many legal and administrative requirements to fulfil. Compliance and the application of best practice is vital to a successful outcome—making proven processes and attention to detail paramount.

For over 30 years, the Election Services team have offered independent and professional election management services to organisations of all kinds; for all, or part of the election process. In-person, postal, and online voting–our people have managed hundreds of elections across Aotearoa New Zealand. We can assist with planning and administration before an election, including preparation of election materials, notifications, liaison and helpline support. We also manage all aspects of vote processing, results and reporting following an election.

Local government, energy trusts, iwi, educators, unions, and more; we’ve worked across a wide range of sectors. Our experienced election management team can provide a comprehensive, end-to-end service, or we can work with client teams and resources to deliver. We take the stress out of elections for our clients.

As a full-service election management company, we provide consulting services, training, and digital election systems to assist clients conducting elections in-house. Service solutions are tailored to an organisation’s specific needs by our knowledgeable and skilled staff.

At Election Services, integrity is an important attribute of our operations. Our people are responsive and thorough, and we have built a reputation for outstanding and reliable service. The election management systems and software we use is world-class (independently audited and accredited), so you can be confident in the process and technology, as well as receiving timely and accurate results. We leave nothing to chance.

With a proven and long track-record, organisations trust us to provide the right advice, expertise, and service to help them succeed. Whatever the need, we aim to create positive and transparent working relationships, and are ready to assist clients in any capacity.
