Why New Zealand’s Most Complex Projects Need a Technical "Brain Trust"
Large-scale infrastructure and high-profile redevelopments are never just about construction—they are about navigating a multidisciplinary maze of technical and regulatory risk.
As recent events in Aotearoa have shown—from the temporary closure of significant government departments to Heritage refurbishments in Auckland—the "unknowns" of legacy asbestos and land contamination can quickly become a project's biggest liability.
This is why we established the SQN Technical Advisory Board.
By bringing together over 100 years of international expertise across occupational hygiene, laboratory leadership, and contaminated land regulation, we provide a defensible "second opinion" when operations cannot stop.
What makes a Technical Board essential?
Strategic Overlap: Our experts don't just work in silos; they provide overlapping insights that bridge the gap between initial assessment, remedial design, and WorkSafe compliance.
Defensible Decisions: When a project is under public or regulatory scrutiny, our board ensures your strategy is technically sound and robustly documented.
Historical Certainty: We specialise in managing legacy removals and incomplete records to provide continuity for live-facility projects like hospitals and ports.
Ensuring the safety of our people and the resilience of our land requires more than just compliance—it requires a circle of the best minds in the business.
