PwC: A benchmark in excellence

PwC is a global leader in professional services, with a network spanning 800 offices across 157 countries and a workforce exceeding 220,000. Renowned for setting and maintaining the highest standards, PwC consistently earns recognition as one of the most desirable places to work worldwide.

The challenge

In 2016, PwC embarked on an ambitious project: to create an unparalleled workplace for their new Sydney office at Barangaroo. This wasn’t just about designing a space; it was about redefining what a modern, cutting-edge office could be. The results didn’t disappoint.

The project was awarded a prestigious accolade from the Master Builders Association (MBA) for its remarkable fit-out. MBA judges described it as a masterclass in design and execution:

"No stone was left unturned to create the ultimate home for such a prominent firm. Every detail has been thoughtfully executed in this outstanding installation, setting a benchmark for excellence. Simply put, this project is an achievement worth celebrating."

Location: Barangaroo NSW 2000

Client: PwC

Elevating workspaces with Uplifting monitor arms

A cornerstone of the Barangaroo fit-out’s success was its focus on functionality and adaptability.

Central to this vision was the installation of Uplifting dual monitor arms (model #7045/700-8408), paired with a custom-engineered laptop tray.

This innovative setup was specifically designed to support PwC’s dynamic working environment. With up to five devices in regular use by PwC staff—including laptops and tablets—the Uplifting solution ensured seamless compatibility. The system allowed each device to be securely positioned in the custom tray, with effortless adjustment to the ideal ergonomic height and angle—all without requiring tools.

The results

The impact of the Sydney project was immediate and far-reaching. PwC extended the use of Uplifting technology to its offices in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Parramatta, creating a unified approach to workplace ergonomics and efficiency.

Today, more than 3,000 PwC employees across Australia benefit from workstations designed to enhance comfort, productivity, and flexibility. This commitment to creating world-class work environments underscores PwC’s dedication to its people. By integrating innovative solutions like Uplifting monitor arms, they’ve demonstrated that investing in thoughtful design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about empowering employees to perform at their best.

PwC’s Barangaroo office set a new standard, not only for the company but for the entire professional services industry. It’s a benchmark in workplace excellence that others aspire to match.
