Expertise

Plan2Place Consulting provides planning advice across strategic planning and statutory implementation within the Victorian planning system.

We are experienced urban planners who have worked in senior roles across local government, state government and the private sector. We understand how frustrating and bureaucratic the planning system can appear, and we help clients find a clear path to realistic, demonstrable outcomes.

We draw on an extensive network of allied professionals in complementary sectors, which means we can build genuinely multi-disciplinary teams where projects require it.
