Aconex selected for Sydney’s prestigious Residence Hyde Park development
Aconex has been selected by Hutchinson Builders to provide its web-based project collaboration system to the Residence Hyde Park development in Sydney.
Aconex will be used to manage information and link the organisations involved in design and construction of the building, which will be one of Australia’s premier luxury residential developments.
Due for completion in late 2011, the development will see a former police headquarters converted into 87 luxury apartments, complete with a gym, pool and other high-end amenities. By using Aconex, Hutchinson Builders and other firms involved in the development will be able to access, distribute and track their documents and correspondence using a single, central platform.
Brian Hood, Regional Manager NSW at Hutchinson Builders, said: “One of the main reasons we selected Aconex was their ability to provide us with a project-wide solution that all participants can use. The ability to track every document and mail on the system will be hugely beneficial and will ensure the entire project team is on the same page. Whether we are communicating with external consultants or sharing information internally, we have one standardised system that is easy to use.”
Leigh Jasper, Aconex Chief Executive Officer, said: “Late or incomplete documentation, and work conducted using out-of-date drawings, are common causes of project delays and quality issues. Using Aconex will benefit the entire project team – from the head contractor and architects to subcontractors and suppliers – by ensuring that information is efficiently shared and easily accessible.”
