Minicon Construction

We are excited to announce a major milestone forward in the transformative Nicholas Hall project for Charter Hall: the scaffolding has officially come down from the facade of one of Melbourne's most unique heritage buildings! This stunning heritage beauty, located in the heart of the Melbourne CBD, is being meticulously restored and redeveloped to become a state-of-the-art modern workplace. With its all-electric design, efficient office fit-out, and high-quality interiors, this building perfectly blends historical charm with contemporary functionality. A huge congratulations to the team working meticulously to bring this vision to life. The project is on track for completion in early 2025. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to transform this historic gem. Learn more about the project - https://lnkd.in/ggM88Kdm #CharterHall #HeritageRestoration #ProjectMilestone

We’re proud to be playing a part in the delivery of these important works at the Melbourne Airport!

We are proud to be involved with the GIRI (Get it Right Initiative) becoming the first member in Asia Pacific in 2021 as well as an accredited trainer in 2022. We’ve delivered error reduction to more than 900 staff across our group and anticipate that number to grow significantly this year.   As an early adopter of GIRI training, we have challenged the status quo. There have been numerous noticeable changes throughout the business, including an increase in conversations around quality and greater awareness of error across all levels. This is anchored by GIRI’s research into the cost of error, which is highlighting to our staff the huge amount of waste within the sector, empowering them to be more creative in discovering ways to boost productivity and reduce error.   Read the case study below for the full story…

As we approach the 26th of January, we approach the day with sensitivity and recognise it is an important date in our shared histories. A day to acknowledge past wrongs and show respect for Australia’s First Nations peoples’, their survival, resilience, and enduring cultures.   While the Icon Group does not officially endorse or celebrate this day in a historical capacity, the 26th of January is a designated national public holiday. We remain committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful workplace where everyone feels valued and understood, particularly with the lead up to significant events. We encourage understanding among all team members.   There is much to celebrate about Australia, and this day is an opportunity to reflect on our shared histories, and a compelling way to extend your cultural knowledge, by joining in the many events being held across the nation, in unity with First Nations peoples and organisations.      Our vision for reconciliation is to create a positive and inclusive culture whereby all future and current Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are proudly themselves, and for all employees to recognise and appreciate the histories and cultures of local First Nations peoples for the betterment of the communities we operate within.

We’re signing off after a big year for a restful break spent with family and friends. Wishing our employees, partners, clients, suppliers and industry peers a safe and happy holidays, and a prosperous new year. We will all be back on deck by 15 January - see you in 2024! #minicon #construction #team

We're looking forward to working with Charter Hall to deliver the fitout works for Nicholas Hall at Wesley Place! #minicon #nicholashall #wesleyplace

We built a bridge! We are proud to hand over stage 1 of the Walmer Street bridge project to Salta Properties today. This portion of the project involved the constructing the bridge structure, surrounding pathways and landscaping and will enable the public to cross the Yarra river and access the Yarra trail in time for the Christmas break.   This project is the first of its kind for Minicon, it involved a steel structure for the southern entry to the bridge and surrounding pathways, landscape and metalwork including bike barriers, balustrades, and handrails.   The team utilised a complex scaffolding / gantry system to install the steel to avoid the high voltage powerlines overhead and navigated the steep embankment from Walma Plaza down to the Yarra trail to receive all deliveries and machinery. Take a look at what we have done so far – we look forward to completing the project in 2024. #webuiltabridge #minicon #construction
