project experience

Making a difference every step of the way

From clever little extensions to major projects

One of the benefits of having 20 years’ experience in the Victorian construction industry is the wide range of projects we have contributed to, and the valuable learnings gained.

Our experience covers a broad expanse of projects, including greenfield hospital developments, crucial to the health needs of regional Victoria, to clever additions to a growing family’s inner Melbourne townhouse.

Quantity Surveyors for health and aged care

“The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members”
– Mahatma Gandhi

The balance required in these high-profile sectors, between strict code compliance, specialist design requirements and rigorous budgetary parameters, creates unique demands.

Years of experience in Health and Aged Care, working on significant, complex projects, have built our skills and specialised knowledge to meet these challenges and make a positive difference.

Quantity Surveyors for the education sector

We all learn in different ways and our environs influence how effectively we learn. The design of our education spaces needs to complement the teaching and learning required for a modern curriculum.

We are inspired by the creative design solutions in this sector, which gives us focus when managing budget and project requirements. We have worked on over 200 varied education projects in the past 5 years, successfully balancing stakeholders needs.

“Sport teaches life’s lessons. But there’s no substitute, in my book, for education, because that gives you choice.”
– Professor Fiona Wood
