Pacific Commissioning’s role: Building Services Coordination
As New Zealand and the world open up again after the Covid-19 restrictions, a new 5-star hotel at Auckland Airport’s International Terminal is a fitting kickstart to the welcome return of visitors and immigrants to our shores.
The 311 room hotel was in the early stages of structural build when Covid hit. It was placed on hold for several months in 2020 and then transitioned to a shell and core project before the fitout began in 2022. Because the build veered from the usual build cycle, Pacific Commissioning pivoted to embrace the new challenges.
Now a uniquely Kiwi experience awaits hotel guests with a focus on a luxurious stay at the end of what is often a long journey to get here.
Civic Administration Building (CAB)
Pacific Commissioning’s role: Building Services Coordination
With a renowned history as New Zealand’s first skyscraper, Auckland’s Civic Administration Building on the edge of Aotea Square was completed in 1966, becoming the home of local government.
Now reinvented as a high-end apartment building, this iconic modernist building has Category A heritage status under the Unitary Plan, which has added complexity to its redevelopment.
The building was stripped back to its structural steel before being rebuilt and although the CAB looks much the same on the outside, inside has been transformed into contemporary luxury, an award-winning project for the build team.
The rebuild involved intense and complex design requirements, with high specifications. Pacific Commissioning’s role focused on ensuring requirements were met and contractors adhered to the highest level of quality.
