Precise Air Group’s relationship with Abacus continues to grow with the recent awarding of the mechanical services contract for 91 King William Street, Adelaide. Precise Air has built a strong, collaborative approach to working with Abacus over the past few years, providing mechanical and/or fire services to retail and commercial sites throughout NSW, QLD and SA. Nurturing relationships that focus on partnering to achieve common goals is central to Precise Air’s approach. We look forward to continuing to deliver essential services to Abacus across the country.

After successfully completing HVAC and Fire upgrades at over 70 TAFE NSW campuses throughout NSW in 2023, the Precise Air and Precise Fire teams have begun work on the next phase of upgrades to over 48 campuses. The success of these projects can be attributed to meticulous control over program planning, project and site management, and procurement. By fostering collaborative relationships with our regional and remote SME subcontractors, we’ve ensured a consistently high-quality delivery of upgrade services across all locations, overcoming distance and logistical challenges. “Partnering with Precise Air Group has been vital in optimising the performance of our assets and driving energy savings,” said Sean McKeon, Investment Program Director ARP, TAFE Infrastructure NSW. “This collaboration has also ensured that upgrades to critical equipment are programmed to avoid disruption and support educational delivery”. These experiences and relationships have proven instrumental in transitioning into the maintenance services contract (including mechanical, fire, electrical) that is being delivered across all TAFE NSW campuses throughout the State. If you would like to find out more about these projects and our national capability, please contact Precise Air Construction General Manager Alex Hadigol or Precise Fire General Manager Geoff Moore.

Good luck to Matthew Kelly and the SEQ Serpents at the First Nations Indigenous Football Cup this weekend! Precise Air is proud to be supporting you! Precise Air’s David Ross and James Leedie joined the team at the opening ceremony. David noted that ‘it was a great morning of cultural inclusion that recognised diversity through sport’.

By harnessing technology, Precise Air’s HESQ and Operations teams devised an online hazard reporting system that overcomes the challenges of traditional hazard reporting. A lack of transparency, tracking, engagement and reporting often results in an elevated risk profile for clients and property owners because of the potential impact on safety, site uptime, critical infrastructure lifecycle and asset ratings. By repurposing Linksafe’s hazard ID module, the team has empowered our employees to report hazards, resulting in improved hazard identification and closing the loop for Facility Managers through a formal tracking, reporting and resolution process.

Precise Air Group recently completed an upgrade for a leading technology company over five levels of commercial office space. The newly refurbished office was designed primarily as an open plan, flexible office workspace with intertenancy stairs connecting each floor. The installation included high efficiency equipment including GRUNDFOS Condenser water pumps, extensive copper piping, STULZ InRow Coolers, Schneider Electric CRAC units, VRF systems, and dedicated backup AC units, ensuring redundancy and reliability. Diesel flues and dedicated ventilation was installed in the basement. Equipment included specialised 33kW InRow coolers servicing the showroom, critical server infrastructure and emergency room, specialised 3 x 66kW CRAC unit in computer rooms, and a generator and UPS backup vital to their operations. This upgrade bolstered the company’s infrastructure with ample backup systems, supported by a dedicated controls system and monitoring for switching between backup systems.
