Key challenges
  • Expansion of their Australian manufacturing facility whilst ensuring there was no impact to operations.
  • Scope consisted of extension of existing facility with construction occurring adjacent to a live operation.
  • Ensuring all works (including demolition) were carried out to not impact the live operation and staged to work in with the operational calendar.
  • Delivery of project in line with project budgets. The project contingency was set extremely tight at 2.5% project value ($60k AUD).
Our approach
  • Client/Builder interface
  • Design brief development and management​
  • Contractor tender, negotiation and selection​
  • Tenant fitout coordination and management
  • Full tender documentation and control​
  • Contract development and negotiation
  • Significant value management​§Superintendent and contract administration​
  • Cost and variation control​
  • Stakeholder management​
  • Live site construction – manufacturing site remained operational
The results
  • Project handed over on time with no loss in time to live operation.
  • Project delivered under budget (saving of ~$25k).
  • Helped provide over $70k in savings to the client by challenging variations and delay claims made by the builder.
