Project Management

Project Management is about delivering peace of mind through tight planning, control and co-ordination at every step of a project.

Project Services’ project managers have the capability to manage the most demanding project situations from landmark infrastructure projects (eg Suncorp Stadium), to high security and leading edge correctional facilities (eg Maryborough Correctional Centre), and smaller but logistically complex regional projects (Palm Island Community Youth Centre).

Whether it is the total management of major capital works, infrastructure projects or just one part of a project, our project management expertise will fit your requirements precisely. Our skilled staff can provide expert advice in risk management, procurement services and delivery options that suit your project. Facilitation of the project management process is optimised through the use of Project Services’ electronic planning software PM Mate and other leading edge IT products.
