Accelerated Programme with Virtus In-house Skilled Workforce

With multiple contractors on-site pushing for a challenging project deadline, Virtus was able to use our in-house workforce to the client to ensure that the pressure testing allowed the other infrastructure packages to continue without disruption. To do this, we developed a schedule of split shifts to accommodate for the otherwork fronts. This included developing a project specific pressure testing procedure which ensured compliance with PIPA guidelines for documenting procedures and checklist.

Supplying skilled workforce during personnel shortages

During the pandemic the project was having challenges supplying self-performed scope of skilled workforce to meet the deadline. Virtus utilised our established labour division of qualified electricians, drilllers, boilermakers and trade assistants to assist with the labour gap. This was due to our proactive approach to achieving compliance, resourcing and safety records. By engaging our highly experienced workforce, we were able to compress crew sizes which allowed us to complete this contract with less man hours.

Scope of Work

This project, focused on the Interchange section running from Haberfield to St Peters, was a large-scale infrastructure development aimed at connecting two major sections of Sydney’s road network. The project involved the installation of a number of key backend services across a 7.5 km stretch, including electrical conduits for low and high voltage systems, telecommunications infrastructure for traffic and emergency control, stormwater management and comprehensive fire and deluge systems. The scope also included extensive commissioning works for mechanical and electrical packages.
