Comprehensive School AV Installations for St Catherine’s School | DIB Australia Testimonial
St Catherine’s School has employed DIB Australia’s services for almost 10 years, during which time the company has undertaken projects ranging from classroom AV installations to larger-scale projects such as the School Hall. The school highlighted satisfaction with the quality of products and the professionalism of installers, who often resolve issues during installation.
The most recent installations occurred during the Christmas school holidays, involving renovations in the Ballroom and Visual Arts Studios. The Ballroom refurbishment was a major project requiring coordination with a Project Manager. DIB Australia demonstrated flexibility with timeframes, completing work after hours and on weekends when needed.
Solutions Consultant James Ridd, previously a DIB technician, was noted for his deep understanding of the school site and his ability to provide advice based on past experience, assisting the school in making informed decisions.
The Production department was praised for its flexibility in handling last-minute changes and short lead times, while technicians ensured installations complied with OH&S standards, met critical deadlines, and coordinated effectively with the Project Manager.
St Catherine’s School continues to engage DIB Australia for current building projects, citing the company’s ability to deliver both large and small-scale projects with consistent professionalism. The school considers this a strong endorsement for DIB Australia’s services.

To whom it may concern,
St Catherine’s School has employed DIB Australia’s services for almost 10 years and during that time has been involved in a number of projects. These have ranged from fitting out classroom spaces to meet our audio visual requirements to larger scale installations such as our School Hall. We have always been happy with the quality of the products and the professionalism of the installers who often need to resolve issues which have arisen during the installation.
The school’s most recent installations occurred during the Christmas school holidays. Renovations of spaces in the school’s Ballroom and Visual Arts Studios were an opportunity to update the audio visual systems. The Ballroom was a major refurbishment in which the school engaged a Project Manager. DIB had to work with some stringent time frames and be flexible with their time. This led to some work being completed after hours including a Saturday.
James Ridd, our Solutions Consultant, has a very good understanding of our site and as he was previously a DIB Technician he can provide advice and knowledge of his experiences to assist us with decision making which works best for our school.
The flexibility that DIB’s Production department made was excellent. The school made some very late decisions about the project and provided very short lead times to schedule and
complete the work. This put pressure on everyone and given it was close to the Christmas holiday period, supply of equipment was difficult. Whilst some lead times could not be met, DIB worked after hours to ensure the project was not held up during construction and returned at a later date to install peripherals.
The technicians were highly skilled and they were able to work with the Project Manager to meet all critical deadlines, comply with OH&S standards and communicate effectively.
DIB Australia has been engaged since that particular project and is currently involved in our latest building project. This is a good endorsement for any group to be engaged again. Whilst many competitors have similar products, the added value of DIB is their ability to work on large or small scale projects with the same level of professionalism.
Kinds regards,
John Toulantas
