We believe our work as Statutory Building Surveyors and Certifiers creates and maintains a unique quality of standard we are proud of. And while we are also proud of our past achievements, staff, and work-to-date, we are always on the move and looking for ways to improve the methodologies and processes we offer our clients.

Offering our services as a Statutory Building Surveyor or Certifier allows us to ensure your buildings are built and constructed in accordance with the National Construction Codes and the Australian Standards, ensuring they are safe and compliant and suitable for occupation. They, however, do not allow us to provide design input or create solutions for a project.

The Consultancy arm of our business was developed to help our clients ensure their projects not only flow smoothly, but that design and aesthetic goals are met too. Engaging Krneta’s services early means we can provide design input and create solutions that reduce the impact on the architectural integrity of your project. Early involvement allows us to provide design advice from day one and ensures we are by your side, actively preventing issues from arising.

Statutory versus Consultancy services - what you need to know

Krneta’s role in the construction industry is to ensure end-users – whether owners or occupiers – aren’t exposed to personal injury or liability for injury. This, in turn, allows us to ensure our clients are less exposed to any additional costs or excessive maintenance required. This focus enables us to be involved in delivering a building that is not adversely impacted due to non-compliance. It’s a big sentence and a bigger responsibility that cannot be overstated. We act proactively, reducing potential roadblocks that may affect timelines and budgets, and we do this all while ensuring regulatory requirements are accurate and prompt.

When acting as Consulting Building Surveyors and Certifiers, we outline a commitment to flexibility and establish a preferred line of communication with our clients and key stakeholders. We create a plan of approach to advise and participate in design meetings as required, keeping you informed every step of the way. Operating as consultants from the outset ensures less downtime and extraordinary efficiency, something we all know designers, construction managers and builders alike seek on every successful project.

Below are some of the many ways Krneta can help enhance your project:

• Consulting with your design team so that a compliant proposal can be achieved.
• Advising asset managers, landlords, builders and owners on how to best progress on a project where compliance and regulations are concerned.
• Conducting thorough reviews and inspections on your behalf to help you remain compliant.
• Reviewing inspections to understand and provide you with an analysis of issues, defects and overall performance.
• Delivering feedback to owners and operators of buildings about maintaining ongoing compliance in all areas of legislation to protect you, your investment, its health, safety and the rules it is governed by.
• Developing detailed assessments on products and materials used to help you acquire the certification which you are seeking.
• Keeping you and your team regularly informed of the works conducted by partners and reviewing similar practices to help you succeed before your next audit.

Nathan and our entire team cannot wait to share this exciting new arm of the business with our clients.
