I write this reference for Construction Management, who were appointed by MoE to act as project managers and quantity surveyors for the demolition and rebuild of a new classroom block inclusive of kitchen and toilet facilities. The project included extensive decking and covered ramps as well as a site-wide services upgrade. They demonstrated exceptional project management skills from the initial planning stages through to building consent being obtained. Communication was excellent and we were kept well informed of progress and input into design aspects to ensure the end result met the specific needs of the school.
During the tender process they facilitated the school site visit and communicated well with the tenders.
Once construction started, they were retained as quantity surveyor and worked well with the project team to ensure a seamless transition to the completed project.
Overall, we were very happy with the performance of the Construction Management team and can highly recommend them.

I write this reference for CM-NZ, who successfully project managed our relocatable project involving the development of eight teaching spaces in 2022. Their expertise and dedication were instrumental in the seamless execution and timely delivery of this important initiative.
CM-NZ demonstrated exceptional project management skills from the initial planning stages through to project completion. Their approach and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the project was coordinated and executed. They managed resources efficiently, adhered to established timelines, and maintained the highest standards of quality throughout the process.
Clear communication was a hallmark of CM-NZ’s management style. They provided regular updates, facilitated transparent discussions, and promptly addressed any concerns or changes that arose.
One of the most commendable aspects of CM-NZ’s performance was their ability to deliver the project as programmed. Despite the tight time frames involved, they adhered to the schedule, ensuring that the teaching spaces were completed on time and ready for use as planned. This reliability was crucial in minimising disruption to our school’s operations and ensuring a smooth transition into the new spaces.
