OUR
CAPABILITIES

FLH is well versed in leading early collaborative working arrangements on our projects. Working in partnership with clients, designers, stakeholders, subcontractors, and suppliers is our preferred mode of operation. Our ability to get involved early on an ‘Early Contractor Engagement (ECE)’ Pre-construction basis will ensure your project is delivered on time and within budget. Due to our experienced in-house resources and industry knowledge, we can determine cost certainty early in the development process.

Through leveraging our capability within the Downer business we can build, maintain, and support the projects we are involved in through our whole of life offering.  We aim to be the leading facilities provider, partner, and employer of choice, delivering sustainable outcomes today and for future generations.

Our strong relationships with consultants all over Australia mean we can form and manage a team of architects and engineers to best suit the project. We have established relationships at the highest levels of our supply chain and draw upon a diverse pool of expert subcontractors and specialists. This approach, like ECI, allows us to save time and money by having the construction and design coordinated and managed efficiently from the outset.

FLH has industry-leading capability in using Digital Construction/BIM (Building Information Management) tools and processes, including 3D coordination, clash & deficiency detection, visualisation, 4D planning, 5D quantification, and augmented/mixed reality devices. The use of these tools has added significant value on several projects over recent years, including airports, hospitals, education facilities, and commercial building projects – allowing us to identify risks early and mitigate them well before we get onto site.

FLH is committed to working collaboratively to support broader social, economic, environmental, and cultural outcomes through our projects. We believe in helping the disadvantaged into work, training, and careers, building intergenerational prosperity, and helping alleviate the inequity that exists today.

​

Our focus is helping Māori and Pasifika and we work closely with our partners from grassroots to government, iwi, and hapu to ensure better outcomes for these communities. 

As one of the founding members of the Australia Green Building Council, we believe true sustainability requires leadership and action. We empower our teams and supply chain to deliver viable environmental outcomes for our clients and end-users. We have invested in understanding better design methods and construction materials to reduce environmental impacts and as a company, we strive to exceed industry environmental best practices, always doing what’s best for the communities in which we live and work.
