Capital Recycling
Project Scope
The project entails comprehensive construction activities carried out within a live operational environment. This includes the systematic relocation of the client’s existing facilities, ensuring minimal disruption to ongoing operations. The scope of work also encompasses early contractor involvement in the planning and design phases to enhance project efficiency and outcome.
Key components of the project
Early Contractor Involvement (ECI):
Participation in the initial planning and design stages to provide expert insights and recommendations.
Collaboration with architects, engineers, and the client to develop a feasible and efficient design plan.
Staged Demolition:
Carefully planned and executed demolition activities conducted in phases to ensure continuity of the client’s operations.
Implementation of safety protocols to protect workers and minimize disruption to the surrounding areas.
Relocation of Existing Facilities:
Systematic relocation of the client’s existing facilities to temporary locations to maintain operational continuity.
Coordination with the client to ensure smooth transitions and minimal impact on daily activities.
Construction of New Facility:
Erection of a new 988m² facility comprising two storey tilt up construction dedicated to commercial administration and a 10.6m high bay workshop.
Inclusion of a wash bay designed to support the operational needs of the client.
Utilization of high-quality materials and modern construction techniques to ensure durability and compliance with industry standards.
External Civil Works:
Development of 3557m² of external civil stormwater infrastructure to manage runoff and prevent flooding.
Construction of heavy-duty hardstand areas to support the client’s operations, particularly for the waste removal and recycling processes.
Implementation of sustainable practices to minimize environmental impact and promote long-term operational efficiency.
Project DELIVERABLES
END USER:
The primary end user of this newly constructed facility is a major Western Australian commercial waste removal and recycling business. The facility is designed to support their extensive operational requirements, enhancing both their administrative and operational capabilities.
Highlights:
Seamless integration of demolition, relocation, and construction activities within a live operational environment.
Collaborative approach with early contractor involvement ensuring efficient and effective project execution.
High-standard construction practices ensuring the durability and functionality of the new facility.
Comprehensive external civil works to support the end user's operations and ensure long-term sustainability.
Project Challenges
Challenge
Staged client relocation in a live operational facility
Mitigation
Providing detailed planning and scheduling, communicating and coordination with the client, including contingency planning for potential disruptions to business activities.
Challenge
Poor ground conditions
Mitigation
Due the site being a class P site, a thorough geotechnical investigation was conducted, providing engineering solutions to the unfavourable site conditions.
Challenge
Tight Program
Mitigation
Creating a detailed project schedule with clear milestones, dependencies, and critical paths. Ensuring adequate allocation of resources, including Labor, equipment, and materials, to meet the project timeline. Maintaining open lines of communication with all stakeholders to ensure everyone is aware of timelines and responsibilities.
