John Holland Pty Ltd

This role required me to step-up a gear in programme development, the co-ordination / integration of various parties and the collection and presentation of project schedule related information. Coming from a predominately claims background, an Alliance seemed a little foreign. Although design was on-going and changing throughout construction the same date for practical completion remained and thus the programme was highly dynamic.

Upon the completion of the Sugarloaf Pipeline Project, I was predominantly based in John Holland’s Melbourne head office, whilst also fulfilling a minor role on the GASP stations. During this period I have worked on a variety of project tenders over several construction disciplines, including rail, civil and building. Most notable tender wins, which I have been involved in, include a $60m extension to the Victoria State Coroner’s office and two $30m train stations.

The first of several RRL packages to be awarded and the timely

completion is critical in delivering the overall project to the client (MTM/DOT).

Being a design and construct project, the team had to hit the ground running in order

achieve the dates for PC. 

 

Since contract award, the team and myself have encountered many challenges, such as

producing documentation to get access to site and managing external interfaces.

Working around a busy, live rail environment requires careful pro-active planning

Worked on $812 million Southroad Superway Project - state's biggest Road Infrastructure project to build 4.8 kilometre non-stop corridor, comprising of a 2.8 kilometre elevated roadway with multiple lanes in each direction and an at-grade service road along the majority of the corridor beneath the elevated roadway structure.
Elevated roadway viaduct comprises of 741 Piles, 68 Pile caps and 68 Piers, 2200 Concrete Segments.
