On Budget

 

To ensure that tight monetary controls are in place at all times Whitehart utilise sophisticated integrated construction management software which provides an up-to-date instant snapshot of the financial status on all our projects.
We are actively seeking to tender on and procure projects across all sectors of the Victorian construction industry and are committed to competitive and transparent pricing. To this end, where appropriate, we offer equal or better alternatives and value management initiatives to provide our clients with the most cost effective outcomes. Through our experiential history we have fostered relationships with leading and innovative Victorian and Australian subcontractors and suppliers which enables us to source alternative products and construction methodologies which can achieve savings without compromising on quality.

On Time

 

Whitehart appreciate the importance of project timing and have demonstrated a high level of proficiency in the coordination of multiple trades and construction elements to enable timely project delivery. Our focus on stringent and detailed construction programming in line with our clients’ required timelines, together with regular reporting and consultation, means that we can deliver projects on or ahead of time.  
Further, we utilise sophisticated web-based project management platforms and the latest telecommunication and information technology hardware including the use of wireless networking and mobile data and communications hardware and software to enable quick response times to issue as and where they arise, ensuring expeditious project delivery.

Residential

Whether a stand alone single dwelling or a multi-level apartment complex, residential buildings provide important investments for now and the future. We are committed to creating sustainable and profitable residential investments through our delivery methodologies which provide economical construction with the highest quality end product.
Being involved in several multi-unit residential developments, we have proficiencies in delivering these projects encompassing all stages from inception and planning to construction and finishing. Our experience in this regard has consisted of affordable housing complexes through to high-end boutique apartment complexes, and we take pride in providing superior buildings with a high level of detailing.

Retail

In order to realise the potential of any retail locale, it is essential to provide an efficient and quality space which is inviting to consumers. Having completed large scale construction developments within some of Australia’s most prominent shopping centres, most notably Emporium Melbourne and Chadstone Shopping Centre, we relish the opportunity to provide high quality retail destinations that make money for stakeholders and retailers.
In delivering retail facilities it is necessary to provide high level coordination between multiple parties, including not only construction subcontractors, but tenancy fitout contractors, centre managers, authorities and government bodies, retailer end-users and retailer fund/project/asset managers and the general public. Through our projects completed within some of the busiest shopping centres in the country we have obtained the necessary proficiencies to ensure smooth and effective running of these projects.
We identify the tight and highly accelerated timeframes often required for retail construction projects, and the imperative to minimise interruptions to trade. We are well versed in delivering complex projects which include new base builds, category 1 works, reconfigurations, tenancy backfills, fitouts, refurbishments and stagedhandovers.

Commercial

Having constructed numerous commercial workspaces, we are aware of the variety of unique client requirements with respect to these projects. Each and every client requires an establishment that will effectively serve their purpose and business. With this in mind, we work collaboratively with businesses to ensure that their specific needs are met with all projects in which we are involved.
Our experience in this regard has included new builds, refurbishments and fitouts, of high level corporate offices, regional administration centres, standalone office blocks, and large scale workplaces.


Health

Our team has extensive experience across a broad range of health care projects, including community medical and dental centres, research laboratories, assisted living villages, and multi-million dollar aged care and hospital developments, constructed in metropolitan Melbourne as well as remote regional communities. We take pride in delivering state-ofthe-art health facilities that provide first class care to communities.
We have been involved in numerous construction projects completed within live hospital environments and are acutely aware of the highly sensitive nature of these sites and the need for stringent site management including infection control procedures and complex staging.


Education

Having completed a substantial number of projects in the education sector [primary, secondary and tertiary], for both public and private clients, we have developed an expertise for working with education providers to deliver functional and efficient spaces within schools across Victoria.
Our experience extends to all aspects of education construction, including refurbishment and fitout of existing facilities, extensions and reconfigurations, sporting ovals and gymnasiums and complete new builds. Given our experiential history in delivering first class education facilities we appreciate the particular constraints of working within a live school property.

Sports

From swimming pools to gymnasiums, sports ovals to stadiums, community pavilions to elite national training facilities, and everything in between, we have delivered a considerable number of sports facilities to the ultimate satisfaction of clients, project stakeholders and end-users.
Many sports facilities can involve multiple stakeholders, often including local and State government bodies, and we have become skilled in working collaboratively with all parties to ensure expected outcomes are achieved and more often than not exceeded.

Industrial

Industrial projects can often be more challenging than they first appear, with the need to incorporate technical and highly sensitive machinery into a functional and economical space. We thrive on this challenge and have experience in the delivery of a vast range of industrial projects which include food processing plants, waste management and recycling facilities, emergency services buildings, government and authorities depots, automotive workshops and testing grounds, and livestock facilities.
We understand the importance of delivering industrial projects which provide value for money and create reliable facilities for businesses.

Hospitality

We have been proven to produce high quality hospitality projects which include intimate dining areas through to large scale commercial kitchens. Significant projects completed by our team include the Bistro Guillaume restaurant at Melbourne’s Crown Casino and the new production kitchen for the VRC at Flemington Racecourse.
Hospitality projects can present an interesting and challenging opportunity to provide functional spaces which integrate state-of-the-art kitchen equipment and custom joinery installations. We relish this opportunity to deliver highly functioning, first class facilities.

Childcare

Creating spaces for children to learn and grow is particularly rewarding and we are proud to have been involved in several significant childcare projects, for both public and private clients.
These projects can be challenging, with tight timeframes revolving around enrolment intakes and terms. We are pleased to have been able to deliver some complex projects which include various elements such as large covered playgrounds and hard landscaping, to the ultimate satisfaction of both clients, whether that be local councils, education providers or private entities, and end-users alike.

Municipal

We take pride in enhancing local communities by providing superior structures and facilities which assist local councils in delivering much needed services and functions to the public.
Having been involved in numerous community projects, such as
libraries, community centres, health centres, civic buildings and
recreation and aquatic facilities, we are cognisant of the vital role these buildings play in the local community. These projects are often highly publicised and are of great interest to the public, and we appreciate the specific importance of a safe and efficient construction delivery. We are proud to have produced some of the most significant community buildings in both metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.
