Executive Summary
Gearon Civil worked closely with Watpac to successfully deliver a large Civil and building package for defence. The job spanned approximately 12 months and was staged into numerous areas to ensure continuity of works and minimise impact to general defence operations.
Given the operational challenges, and the remote location of the project, our team, subcontractors and suppliers managed to deliver a very successful project. We have since completed numerous projects on defence sites and are experienced in the requirements and processes.
We look forward to many future defence projects and find it to be a great working environment.
** Unfortunately, we are unable to supply photographs of the work due to security constraints.
