Anthony Russo
Design & Construct Manager
With extensive project experience across all aspects of the project delivery phase from design, procurement, project management, value management to handover and occupancy, Anthony has considerable, proven experience leading teams to deliver exceptional outcomes on award-winning projects.
Working closely with the project team to integrate the Principal Project Requirements and key stakeholder objectives through the development of a Design Management Plan that captures the design and documentation phase activities, Anthony will ensure the linking of these to the procurement and construction phase activities.
As Design Manager, Anthony’s main responsibilities encompass buildability and constructability inputs in the design phase, achieving early resolution of potential issues, and developing with the team a detailed program integrating all project requirements in design, documentation, trade procurement, construction and occupancy activities. As well as monitoring and controlling program performance and reporting, Anthony will further lead the development of a detailed risk and opportunities management plan (to enhance project delivery and value creation).
Another important aspect of the role will be collaboratively assisting subcontractors in the design documentation review process to ensure trades (and the site team) have a comprehensive understanding of all requirements in terms of translating the design team’s documentation into coordinated plans and shop drawings that result in productive, efficient, safe and high quality delivery onsite.
Throughout the life of the project, Anthony will implement his design and technical expertise, and collective approach as the key point of responsibility during construction, linking the project team with subcontractors to create a unified team in construction delivery and ensure high standards are maintained and design intent always achieved.
