David and the team at HDR, were appointed to fit-out the workshop for Melbourne BMW, one of the largest BMW dealerships in Australia. From conception through to final phase, the level of detail and service were second to none. In my 27+ years in the automotive industry, I have never come across a team so dedicated to delivering excellence such as David and HDR. Every single facet of the design, layout and usability was thoroughly thought through and tested. Not only that but their commitment to service excellence continued after the project had finished, their follow-up and servicing have been second to none. I cannot recommend HDR enough and will certainly use them for all future projects and maintenance. It is very clear to see why they have been in business for so long.

Dear David,

Thanks HDR Workshop Solutions!
At Von Bibra Motors, our slogan is “We’ve got the way to move you!”

Well, we’re moving a lot more people now David, thanks to your firm. We have a highly efficient new workshop that, I might add, is now more profitable than ever. We couldn’t be happier, and I want you to share in the excitement by congratulating your entire team! Without the incredible support, customer service, communication and absolute understanding of our industry that you displayed in the development of our new workshop, we could not have achieved what we have today! Sure, we had the initial concept of where we wanted to go with a new workshop fit-out. But it was with your advice following years of experience and inside knowledge that brought the whole project to fruition in such a way that it exceeded our expectations. Your entire staff have been fantastic and should be congratulated for adhering to the high standards you clearly set for the culture of your organisation. Well done team!

Warm regards,
Warren Von Bibra

I have been lucky enough to deal with HDR for the past 20 years. During this time we have successfully designed and constructed 15 workshops utilizing industry leading efficient design concepts that are cost effective and all have been delivered on time. The ongoing support is second to none, they treat you as a genuine business partner and take an interest after the job is complete to ensure satisfaction and desired results are achieved. We continually have other businesses and manufacturers visit to view our workshops. Without hesitation I would highly recommend the team to anyone wishing to construct or update an existing workshop.”

We are very proud to have finally opened our new workshop here at Keema Springwood, once again we teamed up with David and his team at HDR to carry out the design and fit out for the workshop infrastructure.
We challenged the HDR team with some very particular requirements that took a lot of lateral thinking and design. I am very happy to say they stepped up to the plate and exceeded our expectations.
Thanks to the guidance and quality of workmanship from HDR we now have one of the most attractive workshops in QLD and a work environment that our technicians are proud to work in. This has resulted us hitting the big 3 – in improved efficiencies, boosted moral and better quality of work.
Particular thanks has to go to Dave who despite being extremely busy was always available and offered valuable advice on all aspects of the build, not only the fit out. Dave took the time to work with our engineers and builders to ensure our designs and dreams became reality.

Thanks HDR I look forward to working with your team again on our new build in Springfield.

The thing that impressed us most about the team at HDR Workshop was their passion and dedication to helping us build a ‘model’ workshop. HDR helped us with the design and layout in the initial planning stages and they were there with us throughout the build to help manage the project ensuring that the process ran smoothly and stayed “on track” They delivered peace of mind for us throughout a very complex project. In today’s competitive environment, workshop solutions that promote maximum productivity and efficiency are not merely desirable, they’re absolutely essential.

I have no hesitation in recommending the HDR Workshop Solutions team.
