This design-build project for TW Property was specifically tailored to meet the requirements of the tenant, Carters Building Supplies Taupō. The project involved constructing a building with a footprint of approximately 1900m², comprising a mix of trade storage, office space, and retail display areas. The site also included two workshop spaces and external racking.
TW Property, TW Construction and the tenant worked closely to ensure a clear design brief, project scope, and programme that reflected all requirements. TW Construction managed all concrete preparation, including ordering supplies, logistics, and measurements. Weekly meetings with the project leadership team were held, complemented by daily on-site meetings between TW Construction, suppliers, and subcontractors. Project control groups were also held to discuss any scope changes, budgets, variations, and other potential issues, ensuring risks were mitigated.
One of the key highlights of the project was achieving strong thermal performance. High R-value insulation and double-glazed windows were installed, contributing to a comfortable indoor environment while lowering heating and cooling costs.
