We are Formation Group

Formation is a Workplace Fit Out organisation. We love what we do and enjoy getting to grips with some of the knotty problems people throw at us. We always come up with fresh ideas to challenge people’s thinking and most of all we love to deliver what you hoped for.

We think we’re a bit different to most firms in our industry, we know when a project is not right for us or when we are not right for you and we will tell you straight away. Being this straight-forward has helped us build successful long-standing customer relationships across all our stakeholders.

We deliver great customer outcomes because our staff are paid on customer feedback not project profitability, this drives the right behaviours and outcomes for our staff but also our customers. Find out more about what we do.
