| 21 REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT Envision Eighty20 - Mitre 10 Mega Oamaru Envision Eighty20 provides design, project, and construction management from inception to completion. Specialised structural concrete contractor Structural Concrete Solutions (SCS) is proud to be a partner and contractor to some of New Zealand’s most reputable main contractors, property developers, and local authorities. With expertise in large and complex construction projects, SCS thrives on the challenges involved with some of Otago’s largest and most recent developments. SCS is proud to have played its part in the recent delivery of the new Mitre10 Mega in Oamaru. “This is not the only project in which we have partnered with EnvisionEighty20 to deliver a meaningful project to their client and the community,” says SCS managing director James O’Dea. “It goes without saying we look forward to our next opportunity to work with the Envision team.” SCS prides itself on being reliable, honest, capable, and determined. In an industry where success and e iciency can easily waver, SCS stays committed to the developments it is involved in until their successful delivery. James does not hesitate when asked what makes himmost proud about what the company has achieved in its relatively short life. “It is unquestionably the bringing together of the SCS team as a Structural Concrete Solutions whole,” he says. SCS employs people with a diverse mix of ethnicities, capabilities, and backgrounds. Project managers, site managers, foremen, tradesmen, and apprentices are all part of the SCS family. James often uses the well-known saying “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” when describing the SCS team. “Concrete is the single most widely use material in the world, it is therefore obvious to state that improvements or e iciency gains in the products used help to reduce costs and improve sustainability,” James says. “SCS is a irm believer that enhanced pre-construction planning, the adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM), and more advanced project delivery have the ability to transform the construction and concrete industries into a more e icient and integrated system in the coming decade.” He says the industry now has the technological tools it needs to make signi icant improvements, and now is the time for contractors, suppliers and clients to work collaboratively to ensure the concrete industry evolves into a more e icient form of itself. “SCS stands ready and willing to be part of the evolution of our industry in the years to come.” Civil & Structural • Large Projects Complex Projects • Remote Locations WWW.STRUCTURALSOLUTIONS.CO.NZ | 027 553 1720
