Outcomes

To support the client and mitigate potential delays associated with pending development approvals, JMac implemented an alternative construction program that enabled key elements of the works to commence ahead of schedule. This proactive approach maintained project momentum and reduced overall programme risk while ensuring compliance and quality were upheld throughout delivery.
