Australian Research Council
The Australian Research Council (ARC) engaged MHC to project manage the physical relocation of ARC staff
and IT services from its current tenancy to Brindabella Park, Canberra Airport, and to provide contract
management and coordination services for the fit-out and purchase of the new building. Matt Harrington was the
lead project manager. The project was more complex than usual due to the ARC’s desire to use a green rated
interior fitout to the maximum extent possible.
Matt was fully engaged with the project and closely monitored all tenders released and in many cases personally
sat on the tender assessment processes conducted by a number of suppliers. Matt also instructed the relevant
suppliers on Commonwealth procurement practices and the need to manage conflicts and potential conflicts of
interest during the tender processes.
Matt regularly engaged with contractors and kept the ARC well informed of developments in the project. Matt
also chaired all project control meetings, which involved the architects, builders, data, electrical and IT
contractors. These meetings were well run against the project plan.
I believe that the fitout of the new building and the uplift and relocation of the ARC has been carefully managed
by MHC and is the smoothest exercise of this nature that I have been involved in.
Yours sincerely
Len Marsden
Chief Operating Officer
Australian Research Council
