This project involved a greenfield retirement village development delivering 31 villas and a high end community amenity building as Stage 1. The villas were designed to achieve Homestar 7, with the community building targeting a 5 Green Star rating, reflecting a strong focus on sustainability and long term operational performance.
Stage 1 also included civil subdivision works, with future stages planned to deliver over 100 additional villas and a new care and dementia facility, requiring early consideration of staging, infrastructure capacity, and whole of development cost planning. Construction of Stage 1 was completed over a 25 month programme.
Our Role:
We provided cost planning and procurement advice from feasibility through to construction, including:
- Feasibility cost advice and staging strategies
- Procurement and tender support across multiple contracts, including civil works, villa construction, and the community amenities building
- Ongoing cost control and financial management during construction
- Coordination of financial reporting across multiple contractors
- Preparation of independent bank drawdown reports, covering the full project cost including construction, consultant fees, and client‑direct items
Our involvement ensured cost certainty, transparent reporting, and strong financial governance across a complex, multi‑contract delivery environment.
