Managing a large-scale live construction program
One of the key challenges was managing the extensive painting scope across a large residential development while working within a live construction environment.
The project involved 1,170 apartments, with works requiring careful sequencing across ceilings, walls, doors and doorframes. Late variations also formed part of the project, adding further coordination requirements during delivery.
Maintaining progress while meeting tight project handover requirements required effective management, substantial resources and coordination of works floor by floor.
