Torque Projects recently completed the detailed design and coordination for delivery of a Green & Golden Bell Frog Habitat Creation Project with Viva Energy Australia Pty Limited.

Torque Projects act with a careful and comprehensive approach to Due Diligence & Feasibility work for evaluation of scope, risks, constraints, opportunities and complete development potential. Torque Projects’ experienced staff have the foresight to understand cost, risk and requirements of servicing, civil design, applicant commitments and environmental assessments. Budgeting and cashflow of development costs can also make or break the project. Our ability is to recognise the critical issues for decision making, to ‘’drill down” and resolve issues. Our breakdown of risks is focused on timing, cost, commercial and approval issues. Our reporting is professional, high quality and tailored to your needs.
Torque Projects professionally manage all aspects of Environmental Assessment, Applications and Approvals of property development.
Environmental Assessment – Torque Projects regard environmental assessment of property development as being crucial to the feasibility and success of a project. We provide the experience and leadership necessary along the path, to ensure the specialist subconsultants assessments are:
- coordinated and communicated with the rest of the project team;
- critically reviewed in detail, piecing the overall project together; and
- delivering on project timeframes.
Applications - Torque Projects professionally manage all aspects of proposed development applications including stakeholder engagement, strategic approach, servicing, infrastructure triggers, commitments, staging, construction sequencing, future proofing, timing and process of network authority infrastructure and servicing connections. We thoroughly understand the requirements across NSW planning legislation applying to property development, for a streamlined project application to either local, regional or state level planning authorities.
Approvals - Torque Projects has extensive experience with management of consent approvals for either construction commencement or ongoing annual reporting. Cost, approval and timing risks governed by the consent conditions of an approved development can be crucial to the success of a project. Torque Projects resolve the most effective sequencing, staging and critical path for timing and cost of completing consent commitments to achieve Construction Certificate approval. The purchase of DA approved sites rarely matches individual product needs. We can professionally manage the transition of consent amendments, such as S96 applications, for crystalizing improved outcomes to your project for all levels of government planning authorities.
