the destination, including airports, road networks, utility services and energy generation. The project aims to achieve some of the highest environmental sustainability performance targets of any development in the world.

RBG’s Role

RBG worked within the client team to provide design management and engineering advisory support on the planning and programming of the design and construction of specific project elements, consisting of a large piece of civil / geotechnical / marine infrastructure.
The RBG team was involved to initially review Masterplan information and relevant site investigations (topographic, geotechnical, marine, environmental) and to advise best practice engineering solutions to be considered for implementation on the project. This information was used to inform high level costing exercise and frame the procurement strategies of both designers and contractors.
This then transitioned into developing the technical aspects of the Employers Requirements to step through an Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) process where two competing Contractors developed detailed tender design packages with transparent cost and time offers. The team facilitated this process with both ECI Contractors to ensure all project elements and complexities were understood prior to formal bids being submitted.
Upon award, the RBG technical team moved into the Design Management and Technical advisory role for the client managing the development of the Contractor’s design package to ensure it was in accordance with the Employers Requirements developed. This role also required internally coordinating the design with the interfacing projects both for temporary works (during construction) and in the permanent case.
