Bellwether

Bellwether is an emerging, multi-disciplined, national professional services and contracting firm. We provide construction planning, estimating, project management, independent review services and principal contractor capability to the transport infrastructure, water, mining and oil & gas sectors. Borne out of the major construction industry (primarily transport infrastructure), the team at Bellwether couple their extensive construction planning, delivery and review experience with a systematic and process driven approach to ensure robust and consistent results. Established in 2011, Bellwether has strategically and organically developed its capability, capacity and processes such that today the company offers a range of professional services to blue-chip clients delivering major infrastructure projects across Australia. A significant milestone for Bellwether in 2018, was the restructuring of the group to separate our consulting division and our construction division. This planned restructure provides a clear separation of our offerings to the market. Our consulting offering is primarily client-facing and incorporates all fixed fee and variable rate (hourly or capped daily) professional services work. The consulting team also provides a pre-contract-estimating function for Bellwether Contractors. Bellwether Contractors will continue to be a principal contractor, with a core charter of pursuing projects that offer design and construct disciplines, and/or collaborative approaches and/or challenging engineering issues others shy away from. The synergies between the businesses allow us to provide value to our clients across the entire project life cycle.
