Appointed by Mogul Stud as Project Manager, Tenancy Co-ordinator and Superintendent APG managed the feasibility, design, and construction delivery of Mt Carmel Village Shopping Centre from concept to completion. Featuring 32 specialty tenancies and majors in Coles and ALDI, this premium shopping centre boasts impressive elements including the ‘Eat Street’ dining precinct, an interactive water feature for children and a 600KW embedded network which draws power from solar panels located on shade structures in the carpark, ensuring that the building is designed for the future.

Leading a team of consultants, APG managed the planning permission process, progressing through the Land & Environment Court that eventuated in a Development Consent. APG then design managed through to a detailed tender package, tender and contractor appointment. Following appointment as the Superintendent, APG administered the building contract through its 20-month programme, achieving all cost, time and quality outcomes for the client.

Early resistance from council meant planning permission proved difficult and required sharp consultant co-ordination and key stakeholder management. Further challenges were met in construction, where issues like COVID-19, labour shortages, pricing increases and weather patterns meant as the Superintendent APG were constantly engaged in challenging contract administration and dispute resolution.

APG look forward to continuing to work for Mogul Stud in the Box Hill Precinct including the Box Hill Commercial site which APG are currently carrying through the Development Application process.
