I need an experienced Australian-based draftsperson who can jump straight into a mixed-use Development Application and carry it through to council lodgement. You will be taking my sketches, mark-ups and consultant notes and turning them into DA-ready drawings that satisfy both the relevant Australian Standards and the specific local council requirements I will supply. Because timing is tight this month, I’m looking for someone who can work independently, respond quickly to feedback and issue tidy, fully coordinated drawing sets in AutoCAD or Revit. Your previous DA experience should be evident in the way you document setbacks, shadow diagrams, schedules and other council essentials without me having to micro-manage the process. Deliverables • Complete DA drawing package (site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections and key schedules) ready for council submission • Revisions as required until the council is satisfied • Native CAD files plus PDFs for issue To be considered, email me a short outline of your DA background, which software you prefer, and one or two samples of recent DA work. If this first package runs smoothly there’s every chance of ongoing projects.

As an Australian-based Design Engineer with over ten years of experience, I am highly familiar with local council requirements and the Australian Standards involved in Development Applications. I specialize in bringing ideas to life using SolidWorks 3D design, therefore, transforming your sketches, mark-ups, and consultant notes into precise and detailed drawings that meet all necessary criteria will be my strength. I am hands-on and pragmatic when it comes to my designs, an approachable quality crucial to successfully execute projects through to council lodgement. My expertise covers the entire spectrum of drafting from setback diagrams to coordinating complex plans. You can trust that your DA will be handled with professionalism and finesse, eliminating any need for micro managing from your side. Using AutoCAD or Revit, I'm able to issue tidy, fully coordinated drawing sets that are easily understandable. Also note that I'm willing to work flexibly under tight deadlines and respond quickly to feedback for revisions until the council is completely satisfied. To get a better sense of my skills firsthand, feel free to check out my Facebook page where I showcase some of my recent work. In choosing me, John from Country Victoria, you not only get an experienced professional but also get an opportunity to support local talent and businesses

Hello, I’m a Civil Engineer with hands-on experience delivering multiple Development Application (DA) projects in Australia, carried through to successful council lodgement. I’m comfortable working directly from your sketches, mark-ups, and consultant notes, and translating them into DA-ready drawing sets that align with Australian Standards and local council requirements. The workflow will start based on your design intent and hand drawings, and you will receive regular (daily) project updates to ensure everything stays coordinated and on track. For standard projects, delivery is typically 7–10 days, and given the urgency of this project, a shorter time frame can be accommodated. I work confidently in AutoCAD and Revit, and my documentation covers key DA requirements such as setbacks, shadow diagrams, schedules, and coordinated plans, without the need for close supervision. Please message me directly to receive a link to a completed Australian DA project for your review. I’m highly motivated and would be glad to have the opportunity to collaborate on this project and potentially on ongoing work. Please feel free to be completely comfortable and direct in your communication. Kind regards, Poune
