6 Project planning, advice and management CNC Project Management has a multi-disciplinary team of Project Managers who lead and deliver practical outcomes for our clients. We adopt a staged approach to project delivery based on clear objectives, agreed milestones and approval gateways. We often work with clients to help refine a project scope at the outset. For longer-term projects, we work side-by-side with our clients to scope each stage individually. This enables us to assess risks and opportunities as new information arises, and it provides clarity and certainty for future stages. CNC can take a client s vision for the infrastructure project and find the optimal site or alignment. We provide options that balance constraints and opportunities to help make informed decisions. Under the leadership of our experienced Project Managers, CNC is able to deliver centralised reporting and procurement. This helps us to better overcome project risks, gain efficiencies and ease often time-consuming procurement processes for our clients. Our Project Managers have the following important skills: Subject matter knowledge - We pride ourselves on understanding our clients needs and the industries in which we work. Our Project Managers have well-rounded technical know-how and experience. As a result, we ask the right questions and make sound decisions Robust tools and techniques - We draw on proven project and program management methods, tools and templates.

7 Permitting and approvals CNC Project Management plans and leads regulatory approval processes on infrastructure projects. We pride ourselves on our knowledge of environmental and planning requirements from Federal, State and Local authorities across Australia. Working together with our engagement and environmental teams, CNC s permitting and approval specialists develop comprehensive and fit-for-purpose deliverables. We capture stakeholder and community feedback early and champion key environmental and planning risks to be considered during design development. As a result, unnecessary delays can be avoided from the outset. It is vital to involve key agencies and stakeholders in the approvals process. At CNC, we understand their needs and expectations. We leverage our longstanding and extensive relationships with regulators to help achieve a smooth approvals process and resolve issues quickly. Our priority is to secure the necessary permits and planning approvals within the shortest practical timeline, as well as maximise positive environmental and community outcomes wherever possible. We can achieve both objectives in a cost effective manner. Drawing on our industry knowledge, we prepare documentation that is both compliant with the required legislation and practical to implement on site. This approach strengthens our clients ability to maintain compliance, governance and control for the duration of the project. Once we have secured the required approvals and permits, we can help prepare Construction Environmental Management Plans and on-ground field implementation of environmental conditions. As well as developing site specific sub-plans, we are able to supply Environmental Field Officers and in-field Senior Environmental Managers on short-term or long-term secondments.

8 Environmental management CNC Project Management helps clients comply with their environmental commitments, as well as manage and improve environmental performance on infrastructure projects. Our award-winning environmental team has a diverse skill set. We are committed to working efficiently on projects and we achieve this by providing our clients with multi-skilled, flexible and well-rounded qualified environmental practitioners. As a result, we deliver value for money and on-the-ground innovations. For example, instead of supplying a practitioner with only one specialist area, such as a Fauna Handler, we offer our clients Environmental Field Officers who are qualified in fauna handling. Our officers also have a range of other skills required in on site environmental management including practical knowledge in erosion and sediment control, in field monitoring and compliance reporting. We work efficiently and minimise downtime, while building relationships with the construction workforce. CNC Project Management has designed and implemented a unique in-house training and competency assessment program. This allows us to enhance the skills of our team members and deliver consistent, high quality outcomes for our clients. CNC s innovative Back of the Ute Soil Test Procedure won the Australian Pipelines and Gas Association s (APGA) 2014 Environment Award. In 2015, one of CNC s key clients, Spiecapag Lucas Joint Venture, won the APGA Environment Award for its Front Foot Package for fauna management, which was jointly developed and implemented by CNC staff. This is a practical example of how we add value to the projects we are involved in and drive on-ground efficiencies. As well as environmental field work, our experienced Certified Environmental Practitioners (CEnvPs), Certified Professionals in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESCs) and contaminated land specialists prepare technical reports and management plans. Our environmental systems, plans and procedures are practical, targeted and easy-to-implement in the field.
