COMPREHENSIVE LAND DEVELOPMENT FOR FITZPATRICK INVESTMENTS
Smart land development is essential to support expanding businesses across Australia. Every developer needs a reliable and adaptable partner – proficient in surveying, subdivision and construction – to ensure that their projects are delivered on time and financially successful.
Fitzpatrick Investments relied on SEAM Spatial to be that safe pair of hands for their Industrial Estate at Erskine Park. Requiring cadastral and boundary expertise across the entire lifecycle of the project, SEAM leveraged its experience as an engineering and infrastructure surveyor to provide accurate advice and fast outcomes.
CHALLENGE
At 140 Ha, the Erskine Park development represented a significant undertaking for Fitzpatrick Investments. SEAM Spatial had to balance the demands of multiple stakeholders to achieve a positive result – which included:
- Fast-tracking surveying and lodgement to realise commercial value
- Supplying highly precise data to avoid costly delays and rectifications
- Meeting all planning and legislation requirements
- Considering sustainability as part of the developer’s Green Initiative
Zoned for IN1 General Industrial, the location would feature purpose-built and fully-serviced industrial facilities ideal for warehousing, distribution and manufacturing.
SOLUTION
Having worked on some of the largest mining and engineering projects across Australia, SEAM was the natural choice for a complex and multi-use land development project, like Fitzpatrick Industrial Estate. As an all-in-one provider, SEAM’s process involved:
Undertaking topographical surveys for essential data on the features of the estate – guiding the entire development process
Creating subdivisions and easements, demarcating zones for various uses – and carving out routes for utilities and access
Preparing and lodging plans, ensuring government compliance and smooth coordination for future development phases
Navigating construction with our precise plans and surveys – adhering to best practices in safety and sustainability
Performing certification surveys at each stage of construction – to ensure that standards and specifications are being met
Conduct Property Council of Australia (PCA) surveys on lease areas – for the client to claim rent on purpose-built buildings
“Working with Fitzpatrick was a fantastic opportunity for us at SEAM. Developing and maintaining the land holding to provide the most return to stakeholders was a challenge that yielded some incredible results.”
– David Zucconi, Survey Coordinator at SEAM Spatial
OUTCOMES
Completed in 2021 (within forecasted timeframes), the Fitzpatrick Industrial Estate today comprises 302,961 m² of industrial space across 10 assets. SEAM’s timely and efficient support proved crucial to maximising the value of this land for all parties.
