Drupal developers in Darwin

We're Australia's most experienced Drupal team, working with organisations across the Northern Territory and the rest of the country.

One of our longest-running Territory partnerships has been with Charles Darwin University (CDU), a top-tier Australian university based in the NT. What began as a large-scale Drupal rebuild grew into an ongoing relationship in which we took on larger development work and helped upskill CDU's own team.

That kind of long-term, remote-friendly partnership suits the Territory well. Distance and small in-house teams are part of daily life here, and we've built our delivery model to work well regardless of location.

Whether you're starting fresh from a legacy CMS, planning a move to the latest Drupal version, or looking for a long-term partner to support and evolve your platform, we bring open source know-how that's hard to beat.

Reliable platforms, wherever you're based

Northern Territory organisations often need to support widely dispersed audiences with a smaller local team. Drupal's flexibility, combined with our remote delivery experience, is a natural fit.

Our work with Charles Darwin University shows what that looks like: strategic-level guidance, ongoing platform support, and skills transfer to the university's in-house team, so CDU isn't dependent on us for every change.

We bring that same model to other NT-based organisations, carrying the larger development work while your team keeps day-to-day control of the platform.

Open source values are baked into how we work and think. Through code contribution and other initiatives, we have historically invested 5% of total revenue to the Drupal open source project. It’s safe to say that when you work with us, you’re working with the people who help to build Drupal.

User Experience Case Study

Charles Darwin University: UX Strategy & Design

When you have a full-time job or a family, finding time to study can be a real challenge. For many of its courses, Charles Darwin University (CDU) provides online learning options which affords students the flexibility to study however it suits them. PreviousNext was engaged to develop a comprehensive User Experience strategy and design to complement our Drupal CMS services for CDU with the goal to enhance how site visitors find information and sign up for courses.

National Mental Health Commission

The Mentally Healthy Workplaces Platform

The award-winning Mentally Healthy Workplaces platform was our inaugural Drupal 10 project. The result is a site that provides a single credible avenue to contributed and curated information, resources and learning facilitated by lightning-fast natural language search. It enables and informs, encouraging organisations and individuals to create a mentally healthy workplace utilising trusted information.

Running Discovery

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.
