Services

Our services span every stage of planning and development, bringing together cross-sector expertise and strategic insight to drive projects of all sizes from vision to realisation.

Assessment & Approvals

Navigating complex regulatory and statutory approval frameworks requires clear strategy, informed judgement and a deep understanding of how decisions are made.

We partner with developers, government and individuals to guide projects through every stage of the planning process, drawing on experience across both applicant and assessment roles. From early advice and application strategy through to approvals and assessment, we provide considered, practical guidance that supports confident decision-making and delivers balanced, well considered outcomes.

Development Applications

Preparation and management of development applications, with a clear strategy to ensure proposals are well-justified, clearly articulated and positioned for efficient approval.

Major Projects & Environmental Approvals

Strategic advice and facilitation for major projects and environmental regulatory approvals, guiding proponents through complex statutory processes across agencies and authorities.

Assessment Services
Providing trusted assessment services to support local and state assessment authorities during periods of peak demand, temporary resourcing constraints or as long-term engagements, delivering confidence with efficient, consistent and defensible statutory decision-making.
 

Planning outcomes are strongest when they reflect the needs, values and experiences of the communities they serve.

We support projects through thoughtful community engagement, social analysis and evidence-based planning. By understanding how development interacts with people and place, we help shape proposals that respond to community expectations and deliver positive long-term outcomes.

Community Consultation & Engagement

Designing and facilitating consultation processes that enable meaningful dialogue with communities and stakeholders throughout the planning process.

Social Impact & Needs Assessments

Assessing the social needs and potential impacts of development proposals to support balanced planning decisions and stronger community outcomes.

Co-Design & Engagement Workshops
Facilitating co-design processes, workshops and forums to support meaningful engagement and ensure community perspectives are understood and integrated into project outcomes.
 
Successful development begins with informed decisions at the earliest stages of a project. Understanding planning constraints, site opportunities and approval pathways is critical to shaping viable outcomes.
 
We provide early advisory services to support site acquisition and selection, feasibility and project direction. By identifying risks and opportunities early, we help clients establish clear pathways that support efficient approvals and confident, commercially sound decision-making.
See projects
Planning Due Dilligence & Feasibility

Assessment of planning controls, site constraints and approval pathways to determine development feasibility and inform investment decisions.

Site Analysis & Concept Planning

Evaluating site characteristics and preparing early concept responses to understand development potential and guide project direction.

Approval Strategy & Project De-Risking

Developing planning strategies that minimise risk, optimise development yield and position projects for efficient assessment and approval.

Some projects require approvals beyond the core planning process. Securing environmental licences, local government permits and liquor licensing approvals is often critical to enabling development.
 
We provide advice and support across licensing and permitting processes, including management plan preparation and compliance, working alongside project teams, consultants and government to navigate complex requirements and support successful project outcomes.
Environmental Licences & Permits
Advice and coordination to secure environmental licences and permits, navigating regulatory requirements and supporting timely approvals and ongoing compliance.
 
Liquor Licensing & Community Impact Assessments
Preparation and management of liquor licence applications and Community Impact Assessments, addressing site context, operating characteristics and potential impacts to support well-founded, defensible outcomes.
 
Construction & Operational Management Plans
Preparation of Construction and Operational Management Plans that clearly define how projects will be delivered and operate, addressing key impacts and demonstrating alignment with approval requirements.
 
Master planning establishes a clear, long-term vision for how places grow, evolve and function over time. It brings together land use, infrastructure, movement networks and public spaces to create cohesive, well considered and sustainable communities.
 
We partner with government, developers and project teams to prepare strategic master plans that guide development, responding to local context, planning policy and community expectations with clarity and informed judgement.

Strategic and policy planning helps shape how cities, regions and communities evolve over time. Clear policy frameworks guide land use decisions, manage growth and support sustainable development outcomes.

We work with government and project teams to prepare planning policies, scheme amendments and strategic planning frameworks that respond to local context while supporting long-term planning objectives.

See projects

Preparation of precinct structure plans that establish a clear vision for growth and change of defined areas, addressing land use, infrastructure, movement and urban design to support long-term community and economic outcomes.
 
Complex and non-standard project requirements often require specialist expertise across environmental, sustainability, delivery and evidentiary matters.
 
Working alongside project teams, consultants and government, we integrate with the broader project team to address gaps in planning and development capability as they arise.
