Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Australia, the magazine that highlights the best of the best in building and building products across the country. This time out, our spotlight has found Thompson Building Group, a company that works across Queensland, with significant experience in multi-complex projects, boundaryto-boundary build sites and timber-frame construction. According to marketing manager Renita Gordon, they are among the country’s leading “small lot experts.” In our profile, we cover that expertise and why it is increasingly valuable in today’s building world. We also cover some of their recent projects, including the Carseldine Village on Brisbane’s north side, where they have successfully created one of the first awarded Green Star estates in Queensland. Another envelope-pushing builder featured in these pages is Pichelmann Custom Building – they are a residential builder working in the Canberra region with a number of recent awards to their name. We spoke to partner Eugene Haigh about some of those award-winning projects. We also talked about how much the company has grown in recent years and what’s powered that growth. Also featured within is the Milleen Group, based in Warners Bay, New South Wales. They are a group of companies specializing in civil concrete construction, piling and foundation improvement, and specialist plant and equipment hire. In recent years, like the above companies, they have also grown a lot and accumulated a long list of industry awards. We discussed that growth and recognition with Andrew Stones, the group’s general manager. We also discussed their recent work in the renewable energy sector, which is a sector they expect to be quite active in for many years to come. Andrew explained to us the reasons for their optimism and laid out his exciting vision for their future. We have other stories too, on more innovative and barraising developers, builders, and subcontractors from across Australia. For more of those stories, just keep reading. All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader,
