Incorporating new technology into a major construction project brings unique planning challenges, particularly when the approach is being implemented for the first time. Establishing a realistic and achievable programme requires a coordinated understanding of how the works will come together.

SJA is pleased to be supporting Hansen Yuncken with project planning for an AI Factory in Launceston, Tasmania, a first-of-its-kind project distinguished by its use of new technology.

To address the project's planning complexities, Hansen Yuncken, with support from SJA, facilitated a series of Pull Planning workshops involving the teams responsible for delivering the works.

By bringing everyone together to openly discuss construction sequencing, interfaces, constraints and durations, the workshops helped establish a realistic, coordinated and achievable programme.
The process demonstrates how collaborative planning can turn a complex, uncertain project into a clear and practical delivery plan.

Last week, Brian Coughlin joined construction and legal colleagues at the State Library of NSW for SoCLA’s 2026 Stynes Address, with the Honourable Robert McDougall KC offering a view from the bench.

The question being asked: “What really goes on in a judge’s mind when weighing up a construction dispute?”

Drawing on more than 15 years on the Supreme Court of NSW, Robert McDougall KC explored how judges weigh evidence, interpret facts and reach decisions, and how the way a case is presented can help bring the issues into focus.

Plenty to reflect on for those whose work may one day come before a court and a chance for Brian to catch up with Jack Coles of Baybridge Lawyers.

Thank you to SoCLA and the Honourable Robert McDougall KC for an insightful evening and the opportunity to connect with construction and legal industry colleagues.

Sometimes, it begins with one professional knowing exactly who to recommend. Even from the other side of the globe!

When Sean Kennelly of Advantage RSK in the UK became aware of an opportunity requiring commercial leadership on a new road infrastructure project in Australia, he had someone in mind.

Warren Bottrill, now Senior Advisor at SJA in Sydney.

Sean and Warren had worked together previously in the UK, so the recommendation came from firsthand experience and an established understanding of Warren's capabilities.

That connection has since opened the door to enhanced existing client relationships and an engagement for Warren as Commercial Lead, supporting upstream matters on the project.

There is something particularly rewarding about seeing professional relationships come full circle. Colleagues who have worked together in the past, now part of different businesses within the RSK Group, continuing to create opportunities through the confidence they have in one another.

It is this kind of connection that makes being part of an international group so valuable. The ability to draw on established relationships, recognise expertise across businesses and bring the right people together, wherever they happen to be based.

A sincere thank you to Sean for the introduction and his confidence in Warren.

From a professional connection in the UK to a new opportunity in Australia, a great example of how far a trusted recommendation can travel.

SJA’S Ben Marshall will be attending the 6th ACT Major Projects Conference at the Hyatt Hotel Canberra on 11 and 12 November 2026.

Housing, health, education, and transport projects will play an important role in Canberra’s growth. Delivering them requires careful planning, clear commercial oversight and an understanding of the challenges that emerge as projects progress.

The conference provides an opportunity to hear directly from those shaping the ACT’s project pipeline and discuss what successful delivery will require.
We look forward to connecting with clients, colleagues and others working across the territory’s construction and infrastructure sectors.

If you are attending, we would welcome the opportunity to catch up.

We're not sure what's more impressive about Chris Gray's weekend. The fact that he ran 80 kilometres around Sydney Harbour, that he managed to keep going for over 10 hours despite the pain, or that he chose to put himself through all of it to raise money for a cause close to so many hearts.

Whichever way you look at it, it's an incredible effort and one we're very proud to celebrate!

On Saturday, Chris completed the Bondi to Manly Ultra in support of the McGrath Foundation and by the sounds of it, the day certainly tested him.

An ongoing tendon problem made itself known from the start, followed by severe cramps around the 50km mark. Not exactly ideal when you've still got another 30 kilometres ahead of you!

But Chris kept going, helped along by some spectacular harbour views and great support from Adam Morris of AECOM and Neil Barker of Transurban.

But the best part? Seeing his wife Claire and the kids at the 60km mark, then having his children join him to run the final stretch to the finish line. What a way to finish!

Beyond the personal achievement, Chris has raised an impressive $5,410 for the McGrath Foundation, including SJA's dollar-for-dollar donation matching, helping support the invaluable work of McGrath Cancer Care Nurses.

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, encouraged Chris and supported him along the way.

80 kilometres. Over 10 hours. $5,410 raised. One very sore but very deserving legend!

Congratulations Chris!

It begins with procurement, contracting strategy and risk allocation. It develops through programme, payment, change, contract administration, commercial reporting and claims. And when an issue cannot be resolved commercially, those same project decisions, records and analyses may ultimately be subjected to much greater scrutiny.

SJA’s Advisory Services capability operates across that continuum.

Our practitioners support clients with commercial and claims management, contract administration, change control, risk, governance, procurement and project controls, with the ability to draw on SJA’s wider planning and programming, quantity surveying and disputes capability when deeper time, cost or technical analysis is required.

That breadth of capability and experience provides perspective. Our Advisory teams understand the demands of live project delivery and the importance of establishing a clear commercial position contemporaneously. Separately, where independent expert opinion is required, SJA’s Expert Services practitioners operate in accordance with the duties and independence applicable to their appointments.

Across more than 3,500 projects and 26 years, SJA has built its experience around the realities of construction: complex contracts, difficult projects, changing conditions and commercial decisions that matter.

Advisory Services grounded in construction experience and built for the decisions that shape project outcomes.

PROJECT UPDATE | Bella Vista Warehousing and Distribution Centre

A new 10,000m² warehousing and distribution centre is taking shape in Bella Vista, North-Western Sydney, providing a future home for Elite Supplements as the business prepares to relocate from Canberra.

The development will bring together warehousing, distribution and office facilities in a purpose-built environment designed to support the company's ongoing operations and future growth.

SJA is pleased to have been appointed to provide Project Management services, with Brian Coughlin supporting the coordination, oversight and delivery of this substantial industrial development.

Construction is well underway, with the majority of the lower ground floor slabs now poured, blockwork walls nearing completion and falsework being installed in preparation for the ground floor slab.

Through regular site meetings, inspections and coordination with the wider project team, SJA is helping maintain visibility of construction progress, programme requirements and emerging delivery matters.

These recent site photographs provide a snapshot of the works underway and the scale of the facility as it begins to take shape.

We look forward to working alongside Elite Supplements and the broader project team as the development progresses towards completion and appreciate the opportunity to be involved in this important next chapter for Elite Supplements.

A great afternoon at Sydney’s historic Mint last week, where SJA’s Tim Stevens, Ben Marshall and Tim Sherwood joined McCullough Robertson for its Construction & Major Projects Update.

Following an introduction from Partner Chris Nielson, two panel discussions brought together perspectives from across the firm's Sydney and Brisbane teams.

Scott Higgins led a discussion on construction and infrastructure trends, including contracting models and developments across project delivery and disputes. Mark Riddington then moderated a broader conversation spanning planning, employment relations, digital technology, intellectual property and insolvency.

An interesting mix of perspectives on the issues influencing the construction industry, with plenty to take away from the discussions.

The evening also marked a particularly special occasion, with McCullough Robertson celebrating 100 years in practice. An impressive milestone and a fitting opportunity to bring together industry colleagues, share perspectives and catch up over a few drinks.

Thank you to the McCullough Robertson team for hosting and congratulations on your centenary!

Preparing a construction claim requires advocacy for a commercial position. Assessing or defending one requires the discipline to test it.

A well formulated claim should be capable of answering more than what is being claimed and how much. The underlying questions concerning contractual entitlement, procedural compliance, factual evidence, responsibility, causation, programme effect and whether the quantum claimed can be connected to the events relied upon. Claims should also anticipate available responses from the recipient of the claim and address those potential positions in the preparation of the claim.

That distinction matters.

A large volume of project records does not necessarily establish causation. Programme movements do not, on its own, establish responsibility for that change. Additional cost does not automatically demonstrate the relevant event caused the cost change.

SJA supports clients on both sides of the contractual relationship in the preparation, assessment and defence of time and cost claims. Our Advisory teams can draw together commercial, contractual, programme and quantum analysis to identify strengths, test weaknesses and provide a clearer basis for commercial decision making and negotiation.

A claim should not simply be capable of submission. The underlying position should be capable of withstanding scrutiny.
