Jawoyn Contracting

Local Decision Making: Enabling Jawoyn housing to be built and managed by Jawoyn, for Jawoyn.

Jawoyn Contracting has been bustling with activity over the past few months, and the momentum is only set to increase. We've been hard at work completing a variety of projects, both large and small, across Beagle, Nitmiluk, and Jawoyn’s Homelands. Our commitment to supporting our communities remains strong, as we continue to undertake essential repairs and maintenance on homes in Beswick, Barunga, and Manyallaluk.

We’ve just reached a significant milestone: It’s been 12 months since we took on the contract to manage all Jawoyn Homelands on Jawoyn Country. This responsibility is one we hold with great pride, and our teams have been tireless in their efforts to meet the needs of our communities.

Our Civil team, in particular, has been exceptionally busy. They’ve been working on various government contracts, including demolishing old buildings and installing water drains in the Barunga Community. In an exciting development, the team has recently secured their first road works contract for a "Gravel Resheet" on the Central Arnhem Highway. The growth of our Civil team has been rapid, and we are eager to see what the future holds as they continue to expand their capabilities.

Our Newbuilds team has also been making great strides. They’ve been actively building new homes and are currently working on four "Room to Breathe" extensions in Manyallaluk. We’re thrilled to announce that the team has just completed their first 2bedroom duplex in Manyallaluk. Following this success, they will be heading to Barunga to begin two new builds and undertake 14 more "Room to Breathe" extensions on existing homes.

As we look ahead, the future of Jawoyn Contracting is filled with promise. We remain dedicated to enhancing the infrastructure and living conditions across our communities, ensuring that Jawoyn Country continues to thrive.
