Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) is a strategic collaboration between developers and enabling works contractors during the initial project stages. It helps Australian property developers navigate inflation, supply chain challenges, labour shortages and regulatory pressures, ensuring better cost control and smoother project delivery.

Developers today face the perfect storm:

1.
Tightening Finance
2.
Skilled labour shortage
3.
Higher Supply Costs
4.
Inflation

Developer challenges solved by enabling works contractor

Insufficient time for understanding a project leads to apples with oranges price comparisons.

Inaccurate assessments means insufficient allowance for hazmat removal and variations.

Choosing the wrong methodology can mean compliance breaches, site shutdowns, and delays.

Failing to consider all options means the project approach is not even close to optimised.

Without considering the project holistically, there is great potential for risks to be underestimated, or even overlooked.

Failing to collaborate with specialist contractors to capitalise on their smarts means that opportunities to value engineer and optimise works sequencing are missed.
