FUGEN Constructions punching above their weight – again Written

When it comes to staying ahead of the competition and keeping up
within
a fast evolving industry, FUGEN Constructions has built the
internal structures and attained the industry ‘know how’ to remain
a key player.
Established in 1994 in Botany, Australia, FUGEN has set the
standard for the industry around Sydney and regional New South
Wales by cultivating many long-term client relationships across the
health and medical, laboratory, retail, aged care, education,
hospitality, commercial and infrastructure sectors.
The mid-size, multi-award winning construction company first
made a name for itself in 1996 when it won a significant project
contract with the University of Sydney. Two years later, the FUGEN
portfolio spanned 100 completed projects, and by 1999, the company
had won its first project valued at more than $5 million. That same
year, the company received its first two gold Master Builders
Australia (MBA) Excellence in Construction
Awards and over the next 13 years, the prestigious association
has recognised many more of FUGEN’s projects.
Six years into FUGEN’s establishment, its annual turnover
totalled $20 million. As the company continued to expand its sector
specialisation and industry ‘know how,’ that figure also continued
to grow. Today, FUGEN’s annual turnover is over $50 million, and
its financial stability is a source of pride for this
quality-driven company.
FUGEN ‘Know How’FUGEN has built its rock solid reputation on a
combination of experience and expertise. It’s a concept known
within the business as FUGEN ‘know how.’ The breadth of this ‘know
how’ has expanded as the company’s sector-specific expertise and
collaborative client relationships continue to grow
Clients are attracted by FUGEN’s ‘know-how’ in handling
challenging assignments. Whether the challenge be difficult site
access, heritage issues, design

intricacies, lack of available utility services, building in a
fully operational environment, or recycling used materials, the
FUGEN team respond with experience based solutions, time and time
again.
FUGEN also offers its clients creative design solutions,
extensive problem solving expertise, unparalleled value in their
project work, and client-aligned risk management. Regular and
pro-active communication between project managers and clients
ensures that everyone is on the same page from project conception
to completion. This enables FUGEN to develop and maintain trusting
relationships among its partners, contractors and clients,
delivering a competitively priced, high-quality standard of work
that meets – and often exceeds – clients’ expectations. It’s the
reason why FUGEN receive so much repeat business from clients.
Key PeopleManaging Director Stephen Flannery, joined the company
in 1998 and is responsible for implementing FUGEN’s ‘know how’
guiding philosophy. Building upon two and a half decades’ worth of
industry expertise, Mr
Flannery has equipped FUGEN with the resources and knowledge
necessary to win projects in key industry sectors and ensure that
FUGEN’s employees are well versed in latest industry developments,
new technology, and fundamental business practices.
Dan Murphy, a founding Director of FUGEN, also brings with him
upward of 25 years’ worth of diverse industry experience to the
company. As the immediate past-President of the MBA, Mr Murphy’s
superior communication and organisational skills have helped FUGEN
retain key clients and forge strong relationships with a strong
industry network.
Tim Murphy, also a founding Director of FUGEN, helps the company
progress down a more strategic path to success. His 25-plus years
in the construction industry have provided him with the connections
and experience necessary to navigate FUGEN past its competitors so
the company may continue to uphold its stellar industry
reputation.
Master Builders Association (MBA) Award Wins2012 marks the

the company winning a record-breaking four awards. “For a
company of our size to win four such awards, across a multitude of
construction sectors, is an enormous effort,” Mr Flannery said upon
receiving the awards.
The company’s 2012 winning projects include:• New Brighton
Hotel, which won the ‘Club/Entertainment Refurbishment’ category in
the ‘$5-20 Million’ value range. This extensive renovation and
refurbishment project restored the architectural glory of the
historic, ‘grand old lady’ landmark building on The Corso, Manly. •
Stonecutters Ridge Clubhouse,
winner of the ‘Club/Entertainment – New Building’ sector (in any
price category). Completed in October, this building was
constructed in challenging circumstances. “When these works
commenced there were no services to the site. Temporary power had
to be brought in from half a kilometre away, and water trucked into
the site. The design and construction of these complex and well
finished buildings was completed in 42 weeks,” remarked an MBA
judge, according to the clubhouse media release.• Bathurst Health
Service, winner of the ‘Health Buildings’ category in the ‘Up to
$10 Million’ value

for use as a state-of-the-art health and education facility, and
its completion made this project a ‘prestigious’ contender for an
MBA award. The Main Building also featured refurbishment to the
gymnasium, ambulatory care and kiosk – all completed while the
hospital remained in operation, meaning strict health and safety
code compliance was imperative throughout the project. “Despite the
length of time FUGEN were on site and the breadth of their work, we
had not one complaint,” said Bathurst Health Services General
Manager David Wright of the company’s work within the building.

fit in with the expectations of staff and the community.”• Crows
Nest Substation, which was honoured in the ‘Industrial Buildings’
sector in the ‘Up to $5 Million’ value range. This project involved
the demolition of an existing office building, as well as the
construction of a basement with oil tanks, flame traps and cable
pits, in addition to a ground-level GIS room and two transformer
bays, all the while remaining mindful of the architectural
aesthetics.
“Credit and recognition [for these awards] must also go to our
clients, and the hard working and dedicated teams of people who
have delivered
these exceptional projects,” Mr Flannery said.

skills and competencies of its employees, and the company goes to

we continue to serve to this day.
By 1998 we had completed our 100th project. By 1999 we had won

two gold MBA awards, and we’ve been regular winners ever since.
By 2000 our turnover hit the $20 million mark and steadily rose
over the following decade, with annual turnover now over $50

Today, we specialise in several key sectors and this strategy is
not only helping us grow but it ensures our expertise will continue

Flannery added. In an effort to cultivate young
industry talent, FUGEN offers apprenticeships and an internal
university cadet program that provides a practical, hands-on
education to those looking to grow their construction careers.
The Future With its financial stability, strong executive
leadership and extensive ‘know how’ expertise, FUGEN is a prime
example of a company with a successful future ahead. If 2012 is
anything to judge by, the company is destined to further expand its
client base, complete more exciting projects, and continue to
‘punch above their weight’ – again and again.
