How we can help you
Our accomplished and versatile workforce is here to help with end-to-end construction services customised to suit your project needs.
What we do
With open-ended briefs, cost plus arrangements are designed to work for you. Paying only for labour and material costs plus a fixed percentage/cost fee on top, cost plus means you pay for only what you use. Focusing on efficiency and transparency, SWC are here to make sure you get the best value for money for a quality build.
With both building designers and construction experts in our senior management, SWC deliver design and construct contracts that take into account state of the art building design, constructability and site specific constraints. Coupling the two disciplines under one roof allows for efficiency when it comes to construction as issues can be spotted and designed out even before the shovel hits the dirt.
Scheduling and managing a series of sub-contractors on large building sites can be a headache at the best of times. Let us take the stress out of it for you with a designated head contractor to manage your building site and take control of engaging subcontractors, ensuring onsite health and safety and, where relevant, meeting the requirements of the Code on Commonwealth funded building work.
The ultimate in simplicity for the client, SWC offers competitive turn key packages that oversee the end-to-end construction of your project. This solution gets you from building site to sale with the ease of a single point of contact you can trust to get the job done.
Our team of building designers work together with the client to develop a design brief that forms the basis of the design concept. Drawing together the user requirements, site, orientation, wider environmental context and the project constraints such as time and budget, the SWC design team present a concept that addresses the brief with state of the art of the building design. Working with local and state planning guidelines our concept development stage is underpinned by deep knowledge of building codes, constructability and building efficiency. From this stage, we work with our clients to finesse their vision and progress the plans to the next stage.
Sectors
Stemming from our extensive educational, industrial and commercial experience, our core expertise is building state of the art education spaces.
Education
We consider ourselves education facility construction specialists. With over 600 educational projects completed we are vastly experienced in the delivery of both highly technical and more general educational facilities. This includes paying special attention to the ever-developing IT and audio visual needs thus enabling our clients to deliver an education to their students utilising industry leading technology. Schools are very busy places, we get that. Our educational projects often involve operating in extremely active school environments and we pride ourselves on providing flexibility and understanding towards the school’s needs. We plan our builds around the school’s operations to mitigate disruption and allow for the seamless continuation of safe and productive learning environment even whilst our work is undertaken.
Commercial
The scale and efficiency of commercial projects are well suited to the team at SWC where we strive to deliver quality construction on time, every time. Our attention to detail and commitment to our clients has meant we’re able to forge long-term relationships with our commercial partners who rely on our professionalism and expertise. This includes clients such as Reece Plumbing, Officeworks, Parchem (Dulux), KFC, Subway, Woolworths and Cetnaj, amongst others. Whether it is design and construct, fully documented or just in concept stage we are able to bring a dream to reality within the constraints of a commercial environment.
The process we follow
All great outcomes are seeded with a solid and comprehensive understanding of the brief. The requirements of the project are partly portrayed in the scope and drawings provided or developed for us but it’s the detail outside this that is often the most important. The needs of the client, school, community, neighbours, stakeholders needs to be accurately interpreted before the path is determined.
Whether the project is Construct only or Design and Construct, Steve-Watt has the experience and ability to transition the clients requirements to hardcopy plans. Our experience provides a great platform enabling the procurement of a documentational set that best outlines the clients key deliverables mindful of constructability and efficiency.
Once conceptually formalized into plans the project needs to be co-ordinated and reviewed with all building consultants, clients, other stakeholders, councils and interested parties. Possibly the most critical link in the chain, the effort expended here relates to substantial time and cost savings throughout the build and a far better outcome for our client.
Game time. Now we are onsite and able to demonstrate what our experienced and technically capable workforce are able to achieve from a time efficiency, quality, safety and environmentally responsible perspective. We pride ourselves on the timely completion of projects to the highest quality.
