Frequently Asked Questions

We can source and deliver a wide range of signage solutions across both traditional and modern formats.

This includes static signage, illuminated signage, digital displays, LED signage, architectural signage, and custom-fabricated solutions. Through our extensive partner network, there are very few signage requirements we cannot accommodate.

Each project is matched with the most suitable suppliers to ensure the signage aligns with your brand, environment, and functional needs.

Yes. Custom and non-standard projects are a core part of what we do.

Our network includes highly skilled manufacturers specialising in custom signage, metal fabrication, plastics, and specialist production techniques. Even for highly unique or complex requirements, we are able to identify the right partners to deliver a tailored solution.

Where required, we continue to expand our network to ensure each project is matched with the best possible capability.

Our network of partners has been built over decades through long-standing relationships across the signage and custom manufacturing industries, both in Australia and internationally.

We work with carefully selected partners who offer proven quality, innovation, and reliability. These relationships allow us to deliver competitive pricing, access specialist capabilities, and maintain consistent quality across projects.

This approach creates value through efficiency, scalability, and dependable outcomes.

At Outsource Resource, we’re not just talking about a handful of suppliers. We work with hundreds of trusted partners, including some of Australia’s leading manufacturers across the signage and custom fabrication industries.

While signage is our core specialisation, our network also supports a wide range of related trades and building sectors, providing fabricated solutions in both metal and plastics.

Locally, we collaborate with experienced partners in signage production, custom fabrication, and supporting services such as town planning, graphic design, engineering certification, line marking, painting, traffic management, maintenance, ancillary products, installation, and more.

Globally, our network extends to specialist manufacturers covering every aspect of signage production, including advanced manufacturing techniques that are either unavailable or cost-prohibitive to produce in Australia.

These partners deliver cutting-edge capabilities such as robotic fabrication and welding, custom moulding, specialised painting and finishing, and 3D printing, among many others.

In the digital space, we work with both globally recognised brands and highly specialised manufacturers to deliver custom digital hardware and software solutions designed for unique user experiences.

Logistics is another key pillar of our network. We partner with dedicated logistics providers both locally and internationally, prioritising efficient delivery routes and competitive pricing to ensure goods are delivered on time and with certainty.

As a result, our network is both extensive and highly specialised, allowing us to support a broad range of project requirements with confidence and flexibility.

Outsource Resource is always looking to expand our partnership network with businesses that can offer our clients and existing partners a competitive edge.

Potential partners are carefully reviewed and assessed before being added to our network. Our priority is to ensure every partner meets our standards for quality, reliability, and delivery, helping us maintain consistent outcomes across all projects.

Not every business becomes a supply partner following this assessment.

However, supporting growth is also part of what we do. We work with businesses that may not yet meet our partnership criteria to help them scale and strengthen their operations, positioning them to meet the standards required to join our network and deliver higher-quality outcomes for their own clients.

Our Growth Strategy Workshops, designed specifically for businesses within the signage industry, focus on identifying operational challenges, improving capability, and unlocking opportunities for sustainable growth.

If you’re interested in becoming a partner, or would like to explore how we can support your signage business’s growth strategy, contact us to start the conversation.

Yes. Supply-only services are a key part of what we offer.

We can source signage or fabricated items and arrange delivery directly to your location. Our logistics partners manage local delivery, air freight, or sea freight depending on project requirements, ensuring efficient and cost-effective transport.

Yes. In addition to supply-only services, we can coordinate complete project delivery.

This may include design coordination, procurement, project management, logistics, and installation. Each project is structured to suit its specific requirements, with trusted partners engaged at each stage to ensure quality and accountability.

Yes. Identifying the right signage partners for a rebrand can be complex, particularly when brand consistency, quality, and long-term performance are critical.

We understand how difficult it can be to find suppliers you can genuinely trust. Many businesses struggle to differentiate between partners who offer informed, practical advice and those who simply say what is needed to win the work. Choosing the wrong partner can lead to inconsistent outcomes, cost overruns, and brand risk.

Our team brings decades of hands-on experience working within some of Australia’s largest signage organisations. We have prepared tender submissions, secured national rebrand contracts, and delivered signage programs for major retailers and well-known brands across the country. This experience means we understand the full lifecycle of a rebrand project, including the pressures, expectations, and challenges that arise at each stage.

Because we know the industry from the inside, we are able to assess suppliers objectively. This includes evaluating their technical capability, production capacity, quality control processes, installation experience, and ability to deliver consistently across multiple locations.

You do not need to become a signage expert to manage a successful rebrand. We guide you through the supplier identification, tender, and qualification process, helping ensure the selected signage partners are the right fit for your brand, scope, budget, and delivery expectations.

Our role is to reduce risk, provide clarity, and support confident decision-making so your signage rebrand is delivered accurately, consistently, and in line with your brand vision.

At Outsource Resource, we don’t just partner with manufacturers. We also work closely with experienced logistics specialists to ensure both local and international freight is delivered efficiently, reliably, and cost-effectively.

Through our trusted logistics network, we prioritise optimised shipping routes and practical cost-saving strategies, helping ensure your products arrive when required without compromising quality or budget.

Whether your signage is moving locally, interstate, or internationally, logistics are carefully coordinated to support smooth delivery and dependable project outcomes.

Yes. Fire-rated signage is an important consideration on many projects, particularly in commercial, public, and multi-storey buildings where safety and compliance are critical.

Fire performance requirements for signage have evolved significantly in recent years, and material selection is now subject to closer scrutiny during approvals and inspections. Certain materials commonly used in signage can present fire performance risks if not correctly specified or certified.

We work with experienced suppliers who understand current fire performance expectations and can provide compliant signage solutions where fire ratings are required. This includes guidance on suitable materials, construction methods, and supporting documentation to demonstrate compliance.

Fire performance is considered early in the sourcing process to help avoid delays, rework, or approval issues later in the project. By addressing these requirements upfront, signage can be delivered with confidence, supporting both safety outcomes and smooth project progression.
