Management

Our integrated approach to project management, using our multi-skilled and diverse team, creates a seamless and efficient transition through the planning and construction phases of any project. Our team of Engineers and Designers on the front end, working hand in hand with our Project Managers, Construction Managers and Safety Managers on the ground in the implementation phase.

iEDM have developed a quality system which is in accordance with ISO90001 and designed specifically for our industry, incorporating internal standards, guides, ITP’s and checklists to ensure that each project we deliver is of the highest standard. We have developed an online project management system, with modules including facility management, change management and contract administration to ensure an integrated and efficient model.

iEDM have delivered projects for a range of high profile Sports and Governments. The types of projects we have delivered include:

• Major Event Overlay
• Motor Sport Facilities

iEDM’s project and construction management teams work seamlessly with our site managers and our safety managers to ensure an efficient and effective interface between planning and construction.

We have developed a quality system and a suite of compliance and project delivery documentation which has been specifically developed for our overlay and sports projects.

iEDM have developed a safety and contractor management system which has been developed to meet the specific and unique requirements of the overlay construction industry, while still meeting the requirements of the Harmonised Work Health and Safety Legislation. iEDM can act as Principal Contractors for our Clients, in order to reduce their WHS risk and completely manage this complex discipline.

iEDM deliver more than $40M of sports overlay projects each year and because of this, we have strong long term relationships with the contractors and suppliers in the Australian market.

The objective of the iEDM Risk process is to provide a management tool that identifies and manages risks, identifies opportunities and creates a culture of risk management in an organization. It is simple, effective and easily managed. We use this tool in each event we manage. This means we have tailored the process to the unique nature of planning and managing events to make it effective and provide real results. We can provide your event with a simple framework of how to manage risk, or we can manage the entire process for you.

The Work Health and Safety Act (2011) sets some clear obligations on the Event Promoter. Event Promoters will generally be considered the Person Conducting Business or Undertaking (PCBU) who is in control of the workplace. The Officers of the PCBU (Directors and key Management) are the persons within the PCBU who hold a positive duty of care to provide a safe working environment to workers, contractors, sub-contractors and volunteers.

Work such as building tents or marquees, scaffolding, electrical, plumbing and traffic control are just some examples of what is considered ‘construction work’ under the Act. When this work is being conducted on Event sites, there are obligations of compliance on the Event Promoter. It is vital to manage risk exposure that Event Promoters understand their obligations and areas of specific risk.

We have developed a programme, iEDM SafeEvent which has been specifically designed to provide complete work health and safety coverage for our clients in the event industry. Our safety strategies have to allow for the unique nature of the work conducted in the event industry. We understand this work and further understand the critical nature of the timeframes often available. Establishing safe methods of work given these challenges is a great skill, and one that iEDM plenty of experience in providing.
