Challenges
One of the primary challenges we encountered on this project was taking over from a previous contractor who had not met the client's standards and timeframes. This transition brought a series of significant obstacles that required careful management and resolution.
Firstly, we had to address the substandard installation work left by the previous contractor. This involved comprehensive testing of all installed services to ensure they met our high standards and the project’s requirements. Additionally, there were no finalised drawings or a design freeze in place, which complicated our efforts to plan and execute the necessary work accurately.
The lack of materials on site and missing installation works further compounded the difficulties. We had to source and procure materials swiftly while simultaneously identifying and completing any unfinished installation tasks. Another layer of complexity was added by inheriting the previous subcontractors, which required us to evaluate their work and coordinate effectively to ensure project continuity.
These issues, combined with the pressures of tight deadlines, made the Fieldsview Building project somewhat challenging. However, through diligent effort and effective problem-solving, we successfully navigated these hurdles to deliver a high-quality outcome for the client.
