Design management
Caddmandu has a proven ability to lead and manage any design team of any size.
Our team has vast experience across the civil engineering design field, ranging from concept design, tender design, final detail design and staging works. We also have capabilities across many fields of the civil engineering spectrum, from local roads, highways, motorways, airports, wind farm access roads and railway earthworks design.
Our designers have progressed through their roles in both the government and private sectors, and have an understanding of what is required to lead a team through the most complex of design issues. We also have an unparalleled expertise in liaising with our client, whether they be from the government, construction or design sectors.
design REVIEW & INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION
Through our expertise we have developed a comprehensive internal verification system that gives our clients the confidence that all project requirements have been met. It also ensures that the requirements of the Project Specification & SWTC, along with the requirements of the relevant Road Design Guides and Australian Standards have been adequately met and catered for. These systems have additionally proved worthy in verifying the quality of design proposals from external sources when required.0
In the past, we have been engaged by government authorities to review quantity calculations in depth to ensure that all claims for payments are accurate.
EXPERT WITNESS
Caddmandu has been called to act in the role of Expert Witness to express an unbiased opinion and provide relevant and impartial evidence in various matters.
One such matter was a dispute over earth works volumes, which due to Caddmandu’ s expertise, training and specialised knowledge, was able to concisely demonstrate that their client’s volume measurements were in fact accurate which played a pivotal role in proving the client’s case and saved the client a significant amount of money and time.
We are familiar with the needs for preparing for a conference of experts by ensuring they are:
familiar with all of the material upon which they base their opinions
where expert reports (in draft or final form) have been exchanged, familiar with the opinions of the other experts.
Caddmandu is aware of the Code of Conduct for Expert Witnesses.
