JHA, represented by Garry Luu and Lawrence Yu, had a great time at the 2024 Sustainability Roundtable with Health Infrastructure last Friday. The session, led by Nicky Seaby and supported by Sarah Moore, Jenai McKibbin, and Myly Truong from HINSW, brought together a fantastic group of industry specialists, including Matt Williams, Stefan Takac, Rebecca Dracup, Mary Casey, Mike Matthews-Stuart, and Matt Pontin. HINSW is currently updating Design Guidance Note DGN058 to better align with government policy and improve sustainability outcomes. Their proactive approach in seeking industry feedback and openness to suggestions has been refreshing. The discussions focused on key themes like standardisation, decarbonisation policy, and driving innovation in both construction and governance processes. It wasn’t just about big-picture sustainability goals—we delved into real-world, practical topics like the assurance process and buildability challenges.   A key takeaway? There’s definitely room for more collaboration across the industry. Breaking down silos and working together is the best way to drive meaningful progress alongside the technological and process advancements the industry is continually developing.   JHA is excited to be part of the next phase of the review and see how we can all contribute to shaping better, more sustainable outcomes for the future.   #HealthInfrastructure #Decarbonisation #Sustainability #Collaboration #Buildability

Let’s make it a habit to ask, listen, and be there for one another, not just this week, but every day. #RUOKWeek #Support #Community #MentalHealthAwareness #JHAsyndey #JHAengineers

JHA recently delivered multidisciplinary engineering services for the new Parramatta Police Station.   The new police station was designed by GroupGSA. The facility is adaptive to the dynamic NSWPF operations and responds to the urban environment as it relates to Parramatta’s distinct architecture and respects the surrounding heritage buildings. JHA worked closely with the project team to design a benchmark facility to service the increasing population and improves the community's experience.   JHA delivered mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, fire services, high voltage, audio visual, vertical transport, acoustic, ESD, security and specialist lighting services designs and considered seamless sequencing in our planning to ensure continued operation of the connected Courthouse. JHA also integrated all security systems (access control, duress, CCTV and intercom systems) in the police station as well as the adjacent courthouse. 📸: Sebastian Mrugalski Collaborators: ADCO Constructions GroupGSA Woolacotts Consulting Engineers Varga Traffic Planning Biosis Pty Ltd Urbis V-Mark Survey McGaw Metro BC Jsquared #JHAservices #JHAsydney #JHAengineers #buildingservices #construction #engineering #justice #government #parramatta #policestation
