I am getting ready to delete my 15' duramax and I want to go with PPEI tunes but would like to find a shop close by to install them and do the exhaust work. Any recommendations?

I have been dealing with Relentless for several years and that is without a doubt where I would take it and I wouldn't limit Chris to someone else's canned tunes, let him tune it on his dyno.
PPEI has a pretty bad rep on the pages I follow but those are Ford pages so maybe their Chevy tunes are better.

I have a ‘15 now but I’m not messing with it until my warranty runs out.

I run unloaded one day and could be pulling 15k the next and want something that is safe with everything. Yeah I am about 7k miles from warranty being up so I am getting ready to have it in a shop when the odometer reads 100,001 miles!
What Chris did on mine was try to get as much hp without breaking 700 torque to stay safe. If you add 150 hp with a boxed tuner, you will probably add 200-300 torque, and that’s when you break stuff unless you want to build the tranny too.
Side note: got a check engine light this morning and dash says DEF problem, 99 mi to 65mph top speed. Makes me just want to delete it.

Yeah mine has been throwing def injector codes lately and I keep clearing them. Already had tank heater replaced so I am ready to get it all off to say the least.

WEll you have tunes and then the tuning platform
In TX I would use Calibrated and platform if not steeping up to cloud based your dealing old tech .Ez Lynk . And only one tune can be an issue . Unless the cal you are using are weak .
On my 180 tune its very hard to drive it on that hot tune in the rain no matter how hard you try to be gentle with the throttle .
Trans tuning in a MUST as well .
SOFT switch good luck
