About
About SIMS
SIMS curates and synthesises AI governance, regulation, standards, and practice developments relevant to the Australian public sector.
Who it's for
AI strategy, governance, and policy advisors across Australian Federal Government departments — people who need to keep an eye on what's happening without reading every announcement themselves.
What SIMS isn't
Not an official government tool, not a real-time alerting service, and not exhaustive. It's a private side project with a deliberately curated source list. Treat each item as a starting point, not the authoritative record — the original source is. Nothing here is a substitute for legal, financial, or formal policy advice.
Who built it
SIMS is maintained as a solo side project by a private individual. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated on behalf of the APS, the DTA, or any other agency. Expect occasional outages and content gaps.
Privacy
SIMS has no user accounts and no reader authentication — there is nothing to log in to. Any future "save" or "since I last visited" features store data in your browser's localStorage only; nothing is sent to a server. There are no third-party analytics collecting personal data on this site.
