Tackling complex multidisciplinary engineering projects requires a special blend of expertise and experience. How do you coordinate all the various engineering disciplines? How do you integrate them? Is it feasible?

Solutions to questions such as these and many more are what our Engineering Division provides clients on a daily basis, and the unique perspective they bring to the table ensures the best possible outcome.

It’s a perspective that’s come about because our Engineering Division supports not just our broader integrated solutions offerings, but provides expert solutions to engineering specific projects as well. This means that not only do we have the skills and experience to drill down into specific project elements, we also have the ability to evaluate scope in a broader context and adopt a holistic approach in the development of engineering solutions.

Our Engineering Division provides specialist Project Management, Engineering Design and Drafting services in all areas of Non-Process Infrastructure (NPI). Specific NPI works in which we specialise are as follows;

• Road and pavement engineering.
• Haul and access roads.
• Temporary and permanent accommodation facilities including all associated infrastructure/services.
• Minesite buildings, workshops and other facilities including all associated infrastructure services.
• Heavy haul rail engineering.

Not only do our personnel bring with them years of expertise, but thanks to strategic alliances we combine with specialist consultants to ensure the most appropriate resources are assigned to a particular task. So no matter what your requirements, you can be sure we have the solution.

Core competencies include:

• Civil (earthworks and hydrology/drainage analysis).
• Structural.
• Hydraulics and Mechanical Services.
• Electrical and Communications.

While typical NPI solutions cover:

Design

Our design philosophies are founded on the principal of integrated design wherein all the design elements and associated inputs are detail-modelled in 3D.

This ensures that all components of the design are identified and all services and disciplines are integrated and aligned to ensure that clashes are minimised. 
The ability to ascertain and understand the required technical sequencing of design and associated order of precedence is critical to delivering an optimal solution. Our specialist team has the expertise and our systems the rigour, to do just that.

Our multidisciplinary design team is a key part of our Engineering Division and works with sophisticated software models and tools, in adherence to accredited quality systems, to ensure that all engineering solutions are developed to the level of detail necessary for your project.

Drafting

Our state-of-the-art drafting office has been developed to provide a sophisticated yet seamless and operable means of developing drawing deliverables in a variety of client specific formats, standards and software platforms. Our leading edge CAD workstations, best practice system architecture and associated design environment framework provides both consistent high quality output, as well as enforcing a high level of design and drafting rigour.

This level of efficiency and performance is made possible by a robust CAD platform, customised to provide a controlled and automated method of seamlessly moving between different client/project drafting standards. This capability means our team doesn’t have to rely on individual abilities in retaining a comprehensive knowledge of the various design standards applicable to each client/project, which therefore affords us complete flexibility in resource assignments and cross-project mentoring and design management.
