The Directors at Contour are highly experienced and motivated design engineers, offering over 30 years’ expertise and knowledge relating to civil, structural, and hydraulic engineering, water and resource management, traffic and transport engineering, and legal, and project management – our senior staff are “still on the tools”. As working Directors, we believe this provides our clients with exceptional value in terms of quality of responses and outputs compared with our competitors.

Our team is committed to achieving a high quality of service and are focused on offering cost effective and reliable engineering and scientific solutions with current, practical and sound engineering advice for our clients.

We are intimate with the complexities involved in small, medium and large-scale projects, and well versed in undertaking works for local authorities and regulatory bodies throughout Queensland, and Australia. These relationships maintained with service providers afford our clients significant additional value over and above the simple delivery of quality engineering services.

As engineers we are focused on expediting the delivery of completed services in a logical, efficient, economic, and sustainable manner. Our idiom is to drive our client’s projects to successful fruition within time and budget constraints, whilst presenting quality deliverables.
