Performance
HRS has a long history with Moffat being their preferred builder partner on their earthquake damaged Phillipstown site. Even before picking up a hammer HRS spent 18 months working closely with Moffat testing the “cost zone” on this project by investigating material selections, methodologies and design details.
HRS achieved significant savings on site excavation through careful monitoring and optimising re-use of material to reduce in-fill costs.
Services trades (which include CNG, LPG and Weld Gas) required significant co- ordination, careful consideration of distribution and supply routes, and effective management to ensure quality installation, testing and commission.
