Challenge

The project at 83 Moorabool St, Geelong, for Grant Broadcasters involved a significant base building upgrade, presenting diverse challenges for Akt. Project Management.

Tasked with providing property advisory, project delivery strategy, development management, design management and contract superintendent services, the project’s key challenges included a major building re-positioning while existing tenants, including a bank and two radio stations, were in occupation.

Additionally, a major street refurbishment was required, demanding meticulous planning and execution to maintain public access throughout the process.

Outcome

The outcome of this project was a resounding success. The combination of successful feasibility and a market-responsive design led to securing long-term tenants for all vacancies, including the renewal of the major ground floor tenant.

This achievement not only demonstrates Akt. Project Management’s proficiency in construction strategy project planning and managing complex redevelopment projects but also their ability to enhance property value and tenant appeal.

Moreover, the project was completed on time and under budget, highlighting the team’s effective management and cost-control capabilities, ensuring the project met its financial and temporal objectives without compromising on quality or functionality.
