PPM
Rough in stage at CSIRO
I would like to thank all of the PPM team for successfully navigating through another tough lockdown that put uncertainty into what the next day looked like. The team have delivered outcomes in some tricky environments especially with customers that were not favourable of any additional visits into their homes and work places. PPM have handed over their first construction project with McCormack (Coca Cola Amatil) in Heatherton thanks to James Climas and Carl Misson who successfully delivered this project and reinforced our relationship resulting in future opportunities. We are looking forward to the continual delivery of small to medium commercial projects James, Jordan Purcell and Carl have developed an excellent working relationship - assisting and helping each other is definitely something they do well. The CSIRO Laboratory project was completed in October and supervised by Jordan Purcell. Melbourne CBD office fit outs are keeping the guys busy especially in the Queen & Collins Towers recently handed over by Cooke & Dowsett. PPM have plenty of opportunities in this sector which is very competitive so it’s imperative that we have a good understand of the market prices and continue to deliver the best quality outcomes for all involved. PPM have been successful in securing ongoing maintenance contracts post Cooke & Dowsett’ s defect liability period on several projects which has been greatly received by facility managers who see the benefits of the relationship between Cooke & Dowsett and PPM having a broader knowledge of the overall project. Emergency and adhoc maintenance have increased significantly over the last 4 to 6 weeks as facilities start to become more populated, last count was around 180 job allocations in the last 6 weeks which is keeping both Desiree and Peter on their toes. Welcome Karan Sahota and, Lachlan Batchelor (first PPM apprentice). I hope everyone has a relaxing and well-deserved break – looking forward to building both our existing and new relationships in 2022 whilst providing a solid forward work book for the team.
