For Occupational Therapists & Practitioners

Your clinical work deserves

independent oversight

to back it up.

NDBS works alongside you — not instead of you — to provide the independent construction governance layer that protects your professional standing and ensures your recommendations are faithfully delivered on site.

Fully independent — no builder affiliations

What OTs tell us

Even well-run projects carry hidden risk without independent construction oversight.

OTs often develop comfortable working relationships with builders. That familiarity is valuable — but it can obscure risks that independent oversight is specifically designed to catch.

Builder quotes that drift from your scope

Without independent review, builder quotes often reinterpret the OT's specification — sometimes unknowingly. The result is a build that doesn't fully meet the participant's clinical needs.

Funding rejections due to documentation gaps

NDIA reviewers look for specific language and evidence in BWPM documentation. Incomplete submissions are a leading cause of delays — and they reflect on the entire project team.

No visibility once you've referred a client

Once a client enters the construction phase, many OTs have little insight into what's happening on site. If something goes wrong, you're often the first person the participant calls.

Mid-project disputes with no neutral party

When a builder and participant disagree, or a project stalls, the OT is often contacted first — even though resolving construction disputes isn't your role. NDBS is the accountable party that should always have been there.

How we work together

A partnership built around your clinical authority.

NDBS operates as the independent technical layer. You remain the clinical lead. We make sure the construction outcome reflects your assessment — not a builder's interpretation of it.

1

You refer the project

Contact us early — ideally before quotes are sought. We can support documentation from the outset or step in at any stage.

2

We review your scope

We review your OT report and specification, identify documentation gaps, and ensure the NDIS submission is structured for approval.

3

We manage construction

We oversee the builder — checking quotes, supervising milestones, managing variations, and ensuring works comply with NCC, AS 1428.1 and AS 3740.

4

You close out with confidence

We keep you informed throughout. At handover, you receive a full compliance record and conduct your final assessment knowing the build is right.

Your clients have a choice

Participants can choose their BWPM — and change at any point.

Many OTs and participants don't realise this. The BWPM is not assigned by the NDIA — it's chosen by the participant, just like any other NDIS provider. That choice can be made at the start of a project, or changed mid-way through.

If you have a client in a project where oversight is insufficient or a BWPM is not performing, NDBS can step in. We handle the provider transition on your client's behalf.

You refer the client to us. We take care of the rest — including all NDIS service agreement and transition administration.
