Conceptual Studies
Front End Engineering

ICON has extensive knowledge of the initial ground work required to set up a project. We can provide assistance in all the front end areas of a project by developing Project Execution Plans, Government Submissions, Safety Cases, Detailed Project Budgets, Management Systems, Contracting Strategies and Operating Philosophies. Our Project Managers can provide this assistance from our main office or can be seconded into the project office.

Our project managers can set out the project scope, objectives and relative priorities to formulate the Project Execution Plan (PEP). We are well versed with the requirements of the Australian governing bodies and can submit all the necessary documentation to gain approval for the project. As part of gaining approval from governing bodies, we can also prepare a structured Safety Case that addresses all areas of concern. From this point we can create a detailed project budget addressing all the areas within the scope of the project and the requirements for the Safety Case.

In conjunction with facilitating the necessary preliminary steps of a project, our staff can improve processes by which a project is built and operated. We have the experience to create management systems that ensure the fulfilment of all tasks necessary to complete the project. Additionally we can draw upon our construction experience to create contracting strategies that encourage better, faster and lower cost work. Finally we devise operating philosophies to help focus the project work and operations of the facility.
