SOLUTIONS

• An aboveground footing system to minimise demolition of existing concrete pavements.

Construction

A full contracting role, including contracting of all subcontractors to execute the works

• Construction scheduling and programming
• Construction of a precast flooring system to allow staged construction works and to minimise disruption to existing operations during construction.

RESULTS

Wiley delivered a valuable extension to Suncoast Milk’s operation that improves its overall efficiency and distribution activities.
