Our Capabilities

CAPABIlities

Growing capability

Our core strengths in commercial fitout and refurbishment have given us the right foundation to broaden our national offering and specialise in a significant cross-section of services and capabilities. We believe that our impact comes from rich diversity in what we do for our clients and our ability to adapt our offering to suit the changing needs of the market.

A Future of Innovation

Innovation and technology have always been at the core of our business. We were early adopters of Procore, assisted in developing an industry-first safety app, and our people were the first to use and create QR code cladding replacement tracking. We use technology to enable our business to reach better safety, efficiency, sustainability, and planning standards and create opportunities for ourselves and our clients through better estimation, scheduling, and real time updates during construction.

The DLG SHAPE Promise

We strive for Perfect Delivery™ on every project. We aim to deliver on time, on budget and defect-free through collaborative relationships, transparency, safety and trust.

Whether it is delivering a high-end office fitout or a boutique hotel, we have the experience and specific know-how to manage our clients’ unique expectations. Through the high-quality projects we’ve delivered Australia-wide, we have become known for our effective approach to delivering projects – never compromising on safety, relentless attention to detail and quality, industry-leading customer service, and staying ‘invisible’ in operational environments.

We are committed to managing our clients’ entire project timeline from design to defect-free delivery. To ensure this, we offer Design & Construct (D&C) and turnkey solutions, which are quickly becoming the preferred method of procurement on commercial projects due to their fast-tracked and cost-effective outcomes. Through the D&C approach, we manage the project process for clients from beginning to end, providing detailed cost reporting and project management updates throughout the build.

We deliver high-quality and cost-effective outcomes for clients requiring facade upgrade and compliance-driven replacement projects. We have extensive experience in high-risk works, as well as upgrades to occupied buildings, and understand the importance of minimising disruption to tenants and operations.

We work collaboratively with consultants and subcontracts as required and strive to keep our clients informed of the latest developments within government and industry. Our innovative processes and programs not only provide clients with a visual representation of the progress of works but are essential for the mandatory tracking and recording of panel replacement.

Our experience in new build projects includes both traditional new construction and extensions to existing buildings. We have the experience and relationships to deliver complex projects, especially those requiring well-planned approaches to high-risk works, permit requirements, staged delivery methodologies, and strict regulatory compliance. We are always looking for innovative and safer ways to deliver exceptional projects for our clients.

Our innovative and bespoke modular solutions provide the benefits of off-site construction, including faster schedules, improved safety, minimal on-site disruption, and more sustainable construction. When working in occupied live environments, such as hospitals, schools and sports facilities, our reputation for delivering fast-paced, high-quality, technically challenging construction projects becomes invaluable.

Our Sectors

From new builds in high-security clearance contexts, to understanding the need for transparency and confidentiality, and meeting supplier social targets, we have delivered significant works for State and Federal government agencies and services. We have expertise in value engineering and providing budget certainty, which is crucial on publicly funded projects. We’re proud to be contributing to projects with long-term government vision that support communities and the delivery of services that make the lives of Australians better.

We have significant experience in delivering complex Defence work and understand the unique and strict requirements that come with sensitive and confidential aspects of these projects. From active security clearances and tailored protocols to Defence specific management plans and programs, we are well equipped to deliver a wide range of projects.

Our experience includes the successful delivery of office fitouts, base building upgrades, building services installation, commissioning, and beyond.

With much of our lives spent at work, we know how important it is to create environments that inspire and improve the experience of every employee. The way we work is constantly evolving, and so too is the workplace itself. Having a trusted partner with vast experience in the sector gives our clients the peace of mind that their spaces are looked after throughout their lease. From building company headquarters and agile offices to minor alterations, or base building upgrades, our many repeat clients are a testament to our reputation of delivering exceptional working spaces.

Whether it is a 24-hour operational facility, sterile lab, specialist equipment, or a new extension, our expert teams recognise the unique demands of healthcare projects. Our main focus is always on the safety of patients and medical staff.

Working within sensitive clinical environments also means implementing strict methodologies that address technically complex services requirements, dust mitigation strategies and stringent quality and sustainability standards. Our modular capabilities allow us to build offsite where possible and install quietly at a time carefully selected to minimise disturbance to patients and staff.

We work with leading universities and schools around the country to deliver inspiring spaces that offer world-class education and attract the best students and staff. With considerable experience across a wide range of specialised spaces including laboratories, libraries, auditoriums, and sports facilities, we know how important it is to minimise disruption and prioritise safety while working around teaching schedules and academic calendars.

We’re focused on delivering high-end shopping spaces, fashion outlets and showrooms as well as banks and customer-service spaces. Designed to showcase our clients’ products and services and excite their customers, retail spaces require unwavering attention to quality and detail. For us, it’s about having stringent defect minimisation strategies and programs with quick turnarounds to ensure our clients’ spaces are up and running quickly and smoothly.

Aged care homes bring a purposeful life to our elders by embracing familiarity, providing a sense of community, and easy navigation. We understand this and provide a client experience that is empathetic, considerate, and responsive.

With our staged approach and strict safety protocols, we make sure everyone stays safe and uninterrupted. Our expert teams also know how to navigate the evolving needs of residents and the strict regulations that regulate this sector.

Bringing to life exciting and inviting spaces to eat, drink, and stay at is a combination of our expertise in fitout and our dedication to the highest quality standards. We ensure that we deliver on our client’s vision, by working closely with architects and consultants. Attention to detail and working quietly to ensure guest comfort in live environments is particularly important. We also work with fast-paced programs to allow our clients to open their doors as quickly as possible.
