What SurveyPlus does

SurveyPlus is an Australian professional surveying firm headquartered in the Sydney suburb of Dural (NSW), with additional regional offices across Northern Rivers (Byron Bay/Lismore catchment), the Gold Coast (QLD), and Illawarra (Wollongong). Founded in 1999, the company delivers six core surveying services to property developers, construction firms, government and institutional clients, and individual property owners: detail and contour surveys, 3D laser scanning and 3D modelling, building and construction surveys, boundary surveys and titling, land and strata subdivision, and hydrographic surveys. Technology combines traditional land surveying methods with modern 3D laser scanning and hydrographic instrumentation to produce precise site data, digital models, and regulatory-compliant documentation used by architects, engineers, and developers.

The firm's commercial model is sales-led and project-based: engagements are priced via custom quotes with transparent, upfront pricing, revenue is recognized one-time per project rather than on a recurring or subscription basis, and lead capture runs through a website quote request form, regional phone lines, and a Google Business profile that holds a 4.8 rating across 59 reviews. Go-to-market relies on professional reputation, word-of-mouth referrals, and direct outreach across the four regional offices; professional memberships with BOSSI, SBQ, ISNSW, Surveyors Australia, and CSNSW underpin credibility in a regulated trade. Disclosed clients span aged care (Arcare), education (UNSW, Catholic Education Office Diocese of Parramatta), technology (ARM Holdings), environmental (Soil Conservation Services), sports (Green Horticultural Group, Campbelltown Stadium), and property development (Trident Vesperman, Clearstate & DSA Contracting, Metcorp).

In 2026, SurveyPlus merged with the Orion Group to extend its offering beyond surveying into planning and integrated land development services, broadening its position in the NSW/QLD land development value chain. The firm remains privately held with no disclosed external funding and operates with a headcount in the 11–50 range.
