Overview
Challenge
Working with lots of moving parts in this project, we had to ensure project management and communication between us, the client and other contractors was of top priority so everyone could successfully achieve the goals of the project.
What we faced:
Documentation Inconsistencies: Occasionally, documentation provided at project commencement may contain inconsistencies creating challenges for accurate planning and installation.
Navigating Subcontracting: Subcontracting to builders often means adapting to tight and shifting timelines, coordinating with multiple trades, and managing dependencies that can delay progress.
On-Site Coordination: Coordinating multiple trades on-site can lead to scheduling conflicts, delays, and safety risks, especially in complex or remote projects.
Solution
We address these complexities through structured planning and proactive management. By setting clear work schedules, holding regular coordination meetings, and providing on-site supervision, we ensure all trades operate efficiently and safely. This organised approach keeps projects on track, minimises delays, and maintains the highest standards of quality.
What we delivered?
Early Project Planning: We review all documentation thoroughly before works begin and communicate promptly with the client to clarify details. This ensures alignment and smooth project delivery with minimal disruption or rework.
Proactive Collaboration: We maintain open communication, attend site meetings, and align schedules early. Our flexible team structure allows us to adjust quickly, meeting builder deadlines without compromising quality or safety.
Smart Project Management: We implemented clear work schedules, regular coordination meetings, and on-site supervision to ensure all trades worked efficiently, safely, and collaboratively, keeping the project on track.
"Owning a Tennant Creek property and living interstate doesn’t have to be stressful or a concern when you have the right people on your team. We use Irish and the beautiful Sarah from Barkly Plumbing to manage our plumbing maintenance needs and we are extremely satisfied with the results."
Together, with community, government and industry, we’re building the water and gas infrastructure the Northern Territory depends on.
