How does the K Neumayer-Viva Partnership
de-risk projects and deliver value
down the supply chain?

The Challenge:

A large-scale mining construction project typically involves separate contractors which introduces complexities and risk. Clients often use multiple contractors for different tasks as there are seldom single contractors with all the required skills and capabilities. This approach comes with inherent risks. As an example – When three contractors are involved, each responsible for delivering a specific package, it introduces nine potential interfaces and significantly increases the overall project risk.
Civil Contractor

Concrete pouring, formwork installation, and construction of foundations and structural elements.

Steel Fabricator

Cutting, shaping, and assembling steel assemblies according to design specifications.

Steel Erector

Installing and erecting fabricated steel components and assembling and securing them on-site.

The Solution:
Risk Reduction Through Partnership.

By combining the bulk earthworks, civil works and SMPP supply and installation packages between K Neumayer and Viva Engineering, the partnership reduces the number of contractors and interfaces, significantly lowering the risk to manageable levels.

Advanced Project Controls

Implementing strong project controls ensures successful project delivery. These controls are the project’s backbone and provide vital oversight and coordination. With adequate project controls, mining companies can proactively identify and address potential issues such as material shortages or logistical setbacks.

Viva Engineering uses an integrated management system (StruMIS) with barcode scanning. It allows you to live-track every item, from detailing through to site installation utilising the 3D BIM viewer, so you can keep track of everything that has been accounted for and delivered.

Co-ordination

By coordinating closely with Viva, we plan and ensure that the necessary steel components are delivered in the correct sequence, mitigating issues caused by client-controlled deliveries, such as lost productivity due to fragmented steelwork deliveries. This is often a risk since our teams have a knack for erecting faster than our clients can supply.

In addition, by being involved in the detailing stage, we enhance overall on-site agility, enabling an efficient construction process that continues to deliver value through the supply chain.
