A recent client list includes, Bruce Stevenson Toyota, Tastel Community Telco, Australian Turntable Company, Door of Hope Community Church and Launceston North Uniting Church.

The key credential that sets cbm apart is a holistic approach to development. cbm represents a unique team of professionals with extensive experience in facilities planning, architectural design, engineering, electro-technologies, approvals processes, community consultation, cost control and construction management. This holistic approach of understanding the beginning and end points brings added value, certainty and risk reduction to the whole process. Having built many and diverse projects in its own right, the cbm team has real experience in construction methodology over the full suite of building and Infrastructure elements.
This holistic team maximizes the value of the cbm offering by incorporating the technical expertise of all elements of the design and construction process through one team. The flexibility of the skills within the team also provides for the effective integration of any other engaged consultants and contractors.

Driven by this holistic approach to project delivery, cbm is unique in bringing together expertise and skills for both the design and construction management of built elements be they architectural or civil. cbm cannot be described simply as an architectural or engineering consultant or for that matter a builder. cbm delivers strategic project management from the initial development feasibility phase through the design and construction phase and to project completion and operational phase.
