Project Superintendent Perth

Successful Projects has extensive experience in contract supervisory services on major projects in Health, Construction and Engineering for Local, State and Federal Government agencies, and private agencies.

Construction Superintendent

As the Project Superintendent in Construction projects around Perth and WA, we manage the builder (Contractor) and the Principal to the contract, managing the timeframe and quality of construction, and managing budget through the construction.

Superintendent’s Representative

Successful Projects have Superintendent experience across many projects in Perth including health refurbishments, recreational facilities, aquatic centres, multistorey apartments, sport pavilions and sports grounds for private, state and local government projects.

As the Superintendent’s Representative, we act as an Independent Certifier and Agent for the Principal. We act fairly and honestly, without delay, and with care.

Superintendent As

We robustly and fairly assess claims, progress claims, claims for variations, and claims for extension of times.

Superintendent As Independent Certifier Services

Progress claims

We require each progress claim to be properly detailed and supported by inspection and test reports including inspections reports and test results for the work completed in the period of the claim.

Variation

Our approach is to require the parties act in accordance with the contract that sufficient detail is available to assess the claim properly, value the claim in accordance with the contract.

EOT Claims

Our approach is to require the contractor to notify in accordance with the contract and submit their claim within the time stipulated, properly detailed and supported. We review the information provided for accuracy and apply the delay analysis methodology stipulated in the contract.

Superintendent’s Representative Perth

We provide independent Superintendent’s Representative services for construction projects throughout the project lifecycle; from the preparation of Contract Documentation, delivery of the project, Practical Completion, Defects Liability Period and Final Completion.

Rob Pollock, City of Rockingham

I highly recommend Successful Projects for their Project Superintendence services. Their indepth knowledge of contracts and strong project support team result in positive project outcomes. Their procurement advice and approach has resulted in cost savings and alignment of the project teams.

This has enabled the City to deliver further project scope within the original budget and to allow for the return of funds for other City projects.

Andrew Barnett, Director City Projects (City of Armadale)

I consider that the service provided to the City of Rockingham by Successful Projects … exceeding in all areas …. The project encountered many challenges including a big escalation in cost and strong competition for resources in the construction industry. The project was delivered in separable portions, which were clearly defined and well administered by Successful Projects. Despite a challenging construction market, the level of professionalism shown by Successful Projects has set the bar very high.

Rob Pollock, Major Infrastructure Project Officer (City of Rockingham)

I have no hesitation in recommending Successful Projects as Project Superintendents and project support to any organisation.

Their understanding of the Contract and commitment to providing a high level of service underpins their obvious expertise in the field of Project Management.

Why do you need a Contract Superintendent?

Most contracts expressly require that the Principal ensures there is a Superintendent appointed. In the AS4000 and AS4902 contracts, clause 20 states:

“The Principal shall ensure that at all times there is a Superintendent, and that the Superintendent fulfils all aspects of the role and functions reasonably and in good faith.”

Similarly AS2124 clause 23 states:

“The Principal shall ensure that at all times there is a Superintendent and that in the exercise of the functions of the Superintendent under the Contract…”

Which contract is better?

At the Contract Documentation stage, it’s important to align the form of contract and the wording of the contract with the requirements of the project and the Principal.

There are subtle differences between AS4000 and AS2124 for construct only contracts. Similarly to the AS4902 and AS4300 design and construct contracts . We use our experience to recommend the form of contract and amendments.

What will a project superintendent do?

On award of the Construction Contract, we perform crucial duties of the Superintendent within the ‘First 30 days‘. These include the checking of security, insurances, site possession, management plans, permits, surveys, OHS, formal contract execution.

Successful Projects understand the gravity of the required steps and approvals of the first 30 days from award of Contract for the overall success of the project.

We continue to provide ongoing management requirement through delivery, Practical Completion and final completion (Defects Liability).

What types of projects need a project superintendent?

Commercial projects such as capital works projects, from infrastructure to buildings generally use an Australian Standards Contract between the Principal and the Contractor.

AS4000, AS2124, AS4902, and AS4300 are commonly used construction contracts.

Successful Projects have superintended projects for commercial buildings, health refurbishments, recreational facilities, aquatic centres, multistorey apartments, sport pavilions and sports grounds for private, state and local government projects
