NorthWater specialises in watermain installation and related services, yet our capabilities extend across a comprehensive range of deliverables, including project management, civils, and subcontractor management.
Through collaboration with our parent company, Dempsey Wood Civil, we also provide specialised services in land development, traffic, surveying, concrete, kerbing, earthworks, drainage, and roading.
Project Management and Physical Works
A significant advantage NorthWater offers clients is our proven ability to handle both project management and the majority of physical works using our in-house resources. This pool of high-level expertise encompasses civil engineering, designing and building, estimating, and quantity surveying for infrastructure and civil works contracts
Dedicated Team
We have a dedicated Health, Safety, Environmental, Quality and Sustainability team committed to maintaining and embedding a culture within our workplace that provides significant benefits to our business and our clients.
Customer Focus
Our management structure offers stability and customer focus. At the heart of this are the relationships that NorthWater forges with our clients, at every level of the organisation.
Innovative Solutions
NorthWater collaborates internally as well as with our clients, consultant engineers, and other project stakeholders to devise and implement fully integrated and often very innovative solutions that benefit each project.
Mitigate Risks
The “Do it Once, Do it Right” objective employs all necessary preventive and risk management measures we have encountered. But even with the best preventions, mistakes do happen. NorthWater use these to improve as an organisation. Opportunity for improvementsareused to capture and measure these instances. We always want to look at the brighter side of things and instead of categorising non-conformances as “slipups”, we turn them around and look for the opportunity underneath them.
Flexibility
Our in-house resources give us greater flexibility over programming and facilitates our proven abilities to devise integrated methodologies as well as innovative solutions that benefit projects.
Commitment to Success
Our standard practices ensure that we deliver programme milestones and meet completion dates.
- Fully integrated construction methodology, programme, TMPs, stakeholder liaison management, and HSEQ best practice management – all integrated in our comprehensive Project Management Plan.
- Aggressive, yet achievable programme aligned to our organisational structure. Updated programmes are reviewed weekly by the site team to monitor progress and identify areas of concern, discuss, agree, and implement preventative/corrective measures.
- Utilisation of in-house resources to undertake most of the contract works supplemented by prequalified subcontractors with backup resources identified if required. Development of positive stakeholder relationships and initiatives that will “turn negative perceptions into positive outcomes”.
Solid Reporting
NorthWater has a mature internal and external reporting culture. Our people are committed to continuous improvement and know we can learn valuable lessons from anything that goes wrong. Part of NorthWater’s way is valuing honesty and integrity and doing what we say we’re going to do. If things go wrong, we take responsibility, accountability, and make things right .
