Our Management

CivilTeam was involved in redesign of sections of the work, using gabion baskets and mattresses.

The result was an innovative technical solution which was practical to construct and cost-effective.

Value Adding

The eight sections of work were completed within budget and four weeks ahead of schedule. Detailed planning, careful client consultation, and methodical staging were keys to our successful project delivery.
