Drupal developers in Melbourne

We're Australia's most experienced Drupal specialists in Melbourne. We help government, enterprise and education organisations build platforms designed to last.

Melbourne's digital teams tend to set a high bar on performance, accessibility and user experience, and we've built our practice around meeting exactly that standard.

We take a collaborative approach with every client. Understanding your goals comes first; the technical direction follows from there. Our Melbourne-based Drupal developers combine deep open source expertise with modern, decoupled architecture.

Whether you're modernising a legacy platform, upgrading to the latest Drupal release, or need a long-term partner to keep your platform evolving, we have the practical experience to help.

Platforms that perform under pressure

Drupal supports some of the most complex, high-traffic platforms in the world, from government services to large enterprise ecosystems. Our Melbourne team applies that capability daily, working with Victorian Government agencies and Melbourne-based businesses managing significant volumes of traffic.

We've supported Wyndham City Council through a major platform upgrade, and built a new Drupal platform for amaysim, one of Australia's largest mobile providers, after its previous site couldn't keep pace with the company's growth.

That range – from government to fast-moving enterprise – shapes how we build: platforms stable enough to meet compliance requirements and flexible enough for a business that needs to move quickly.

What we do

As a leading Drupal agency working with Melbourne organisations, we support the full lifecycle of modern digital platforms:

  • Custom Drupal website design and development
  • Platform migrations, upgrades and hosting
  • React, headless and decoupled architectures
  • GovCMS builds and integrations
  • Ongoing support, optimisation and strategic consultancy

Why organisations work with us

We've been working with Drupal since 2009, contributing to the open source project and helping shape its global community. Open source principles influence how we think, build and collaborate.

Our team invests 5% of our total revenue into the Drupal open source project. When you work with us, you're partnering with people directly involved in improving the platform itself.

We're also Australia's first and only Top-Tier Drupal Certified Partner.

Organisations choose us for our technical expertise, but continue working with us because of our approach. We’re transparent, collaborative, and focused on platforms that keep improving after launch.

Who we work with

We partner with organisations delivering essential services across Melbourne, Victoria and nationally, including:

Wyndham City

In late 2015, Wyndham City, a local government organisation based in the south-west region of Melbourne, undertook a competitive tender selection for the redevelopment of their website and chose PreviousNext to deliver this new site on Drupal.

Empowering Customers to Manage Services Online

Amaysim

Australia’s fourth largest mobile service provider, amaysim, required a new website that would allow the scope to keep up with the company’s growth and agility both now and into the future. In early 2016, PreviousNext were engaged for the development of this new site on the Drupal content management system.

Australian Digital Health Agency

The Agency (ADHA) wanted to reposition itself to better support the needs of all Australians. We were approached to engage target users of the website in order to test and validate assumptions and provide recommendations for a new website. The outcome would more fully represent ADHA's vision, direction and Digital Strategy.

Our work is collaborative and outcomes-driven, helping Victorian organisations deliver better digital experiences at scale.

FAQs

Do you work with organisations in Melbourne?

Yes. Alongside our Victorian Government work, Melbourne is also where we do a lot of our enterprise projects, from local councils to fast-growing telcos.

Can you migrate an existing website to Drupal?

Yes. Whether it's a council site or a high-traffic commercial platform like amaysim's, we plan the migration around your content, integrations and traffic patterns first.

Do you build GovCMS platforms as well as commercial sites?

Yes. We split our time between Victorian Government GovCMS work and broader enterprise Drupal projects, which keeps us sharp on both compliance and commercial performance.

Do you work with enterprise clients outside government?

Yes. Our work with amaysim is a good example of what that looks like: a fast-moving business that needed a platform built for growth, not just compliance.

Have you adopted AI into your workflow?

We're actively exploring secure, practical ways to use AI in development, always under senior oversight. Our blog covers what we've learned so far.
