"Guidera O’Connor has worked very closely with SA Water through the establishment of this collaborative partnership to understand SA Water’s objectives and make a great contribution to achieving these by developing trusting relationships and exhibiting the desired behaviours. The planning of the program and collaboration with our stakeholders has maximised the value for money for SA Water. I would be pleased to recommend Guidera O’Connor as a long term partner to deliver programs of work very successfully"
"The Beenyup PEDC Upgrade was a short, intense onsite project, which required meticulous planning over the past 12 months due to the risk profile and the time constraints placed upon the project. The GO project team worked tirelessly over this time to assist in the planning and project execution and I would like to sincerely thank them for their patience, wealth of experience and contribution to delivery of this project"
"The size of the current worksite as well as its proximity to local residents and businesses, meant it was important for works to be managed in a way that limited impacts like dust or noise, as well as access to driveways and stock delivery points. Crews received a high level of appreciation from residents, with some even bringing ice blocks or cold drinks to the team on hot days! This is an excellent indication of customer satisfaction with the delivery of the project"
"It was a very challenging exercise to meet the Council's expectations and requirements. The credit goes to whole team for managing it so well… It is very satisfying to be aware of the fact that we have a very satisfied customer"
"GO consistently met the objectives set by the project and in so doing unfailingly performed in a highly collaborative and professional manner. The project has been extremely challenging and complex. GO designed and delivered the water treatment and pumping solution to Waterproofing the East (now known as ERA Water) in an uncompromising, skillful and responsive manner. I highly commend GO’s performance and most importantly their ability to manage a number of challenging stakeholders"
"I was very impressed by the professionalism of the GO team. They removed the boardwalk with quiet efficiency. I was particularly impressed by their approach to Workplace Health and Safety. Before going on site I had been provided with their Construction Work Statement and Safe Work Method Statement, which were comprehensive and intelligent. However, as well as talking the talk you have to walk the walk, and that is what I found so impressive"
"The efforts of the GO team ensured that all works were undertaken in a safe, competent manner, with a quality that was second to none. I must also commend the attitude, work ethic and behaviour of the GO team on site, it was exceptional. I was also very pleased with the way the works were planned and coordinated, being delivered on time and within a restricted timeframe"
"I’m very happy with the outcome taking into consideration the performance of the old system but also the design challenges the team encountered and overcame throughout the construction phase. The result is a credit to all involved in this project in particular everyone in the GO team, who’s patience, commitment, design input and team work has played a significant role in the project achievements – once again an example of how a contractor/client relationship can produce the results"
"Congratulations to all at GO. The continuous hard work and efforts made to continually improve the management system has driven success here. The Water Corporation values the way GO continue to work with us as One Team"
"We believe that Project Management provided by Guidera O’Connor is of the highest quality and is certainly market leading within the Water Industry"
"I found GO’s team to be very proactive and very professional in the manner they conducted themselves in delivering the Albany WWTP Upgrade. They put into practice ‘delivering excellence’ and produced an upgrade to high standard"
"The team that completed the works at Singleton UV surpassed all expectations. From the help and input provided during the design phase to the construction and troubleshooting during commissioning, Harrison and the team were always on call to go the extra mile to make sure the job was done."
"GO is currently delivering SA Water’s Water Treatment Framework, a $45 million contract across a 2.5-year period. GO demonstrated a great ability to simultaneously manage a wide range of their own workgroups and subcontractor teams of various trades under extremely difficult circumstances. Meanwhile they took a leading role in coordinating interfaces between their work and that of the other contractors working on the site at the time"
"Of the many companies we deal with, none have been more willing to assist and support us than Guidera O’Connor and due to our similar values and dedication to excellence in quality, safety and customer service the relationship has developed into a partnership where we celebrate and share our successes. They have always been open and constructive in feedback given regarding our tender submissions and works undertaken and we have established long term relationships with all their staff and other sub-contractors"
"I have found all of the staff I have worked with from Guidera O’Connor have a great understanding of safety, quality and environmental requirements of the various sites we have worked together on. This information has always been passed on in a manner that ensures all personnel involved in the project has a good understanding of the specific project requirements"
"Guidera O’Conner just finished one of the best Polychem installations I have ever seen at Glenelg STP in Adelaide where they took enormous care to ensure each of the 7 tanks were perfectly aligned so the scrapers ran without any noise or vibration whatsoever. It is probably the best installation job I have ever commissioned in 25+ years of involvement with the Polychem product"
