Project Work
Fire, HVAC and Electrical Installation Projects
Delivered by the same people who'll maintain it afterwards.
Installed by People Who Have to Live With It
There's a particular kind of project outcome every facility manager recognises: the installation that passed handover and has been difficult ever since. Access panels that can't be reached. Plant specified for a building it doesn't quite suit. Documentation that never arrived.
It happens because the company that installs a system usually never sees it again.
TCM maintains buildings. When we install something, our own technicians are the ones servicing it in five years, so we build it to be maintained. Accessible, documented, and specified for how the building runs rather than how it looked on paper.
Installation and Upgrade Projects We Deliver
Mechanical and HVAC projects
- Plant installation, replacement and staged upgrades
- Chiller, boiler and cooling tower replacement
- Refrigeration and process cooling installation
- Control system and BMS upgrades
- Ductwork, ventilation and air quality works
Fire and ESM projects
- Fire indicator panel (FIP) upgrades and replacement
- Detection and alarm system installation
- Sprinkler, hydrant and hose reel works
- Fire pump installation and replacement
- Emergency and exit lighting upgrades
- Compliance-driven rectification works
Electrical projects
- Switchboard upgrades and replacement
- Light and power installation and LED upgrades
- Generator and UPS installation
- Metering, monitoring and power factor correction
- Infrastructure upgrades to support new plant
We take on anything from single-item replacement through to full multi-discipline upgrades. If you're replacing plant that touches more than one service, having all three in-house is where it pays off.
Case Study: Fire Indicator Panel Upgrade, 2 Riverside Quay
A fire indicator panel upgrade in a fully tenanted Southbank tower, an active precinct where the building had to keep operating normally throughout.
The work was completed on schedule with the site team's operations uninterrupted and a safe working environment maintained in a live commercial environment. Afterwards, Mirvac's facilities management team formally recommended our site lead for recognition, citing technical expertise, proactive problem-solving and a high level of project ownership.
"Nem demonstrated a high level of project ownership and onsite was the face of TCM during the project."
One person owns the job, visible on site, accountable for the outcome. That's the standard we hold.
How a TCM Project Runs
Scope and site assessment
We look at what's installed, what the building needs, and what constraints you're working within: occupancy, trading hours, access, budget cycles.
Design and coordination
Whether we're designing it or delivering someone else's design, we resolve the buildability questions before anyone's on site.
See Design & DeliverDelivery
Directly employed technicians, coordinated across disciplines where the job needs it, working around your operations rather than through them.
Commissioning and handover
Tested, documented and signed off, with compliance records loaded into your reporting from day one.
Into maintenance
If you'd like, the new asset moves straight onto a maintenance program with the team that installed it.

Building owners and facility managers
Planning replacements, upgrades or compliance rectification in operating buildings.
Builders and project managers
Needing a services contractor who can cover fire, mechanical and electrical on the one job rather than coordinating three.
Existing maintenance clients
Most of our project work comes from buildings we already look after, because we're the ones who flagged what needed doing.
Project Work: Common Questions
Yes. We deliver consultant and builder designs as readily as our own, and we'll raise buildability or maintainability issues early rather than after installation.
It's most of what we do. Staged works, after-hours attendance and tenant-aware scheduling are standard for us.
You get full documentation and commissioning records. If you'd like ongoing maintenance, the asset moves onto a program with the team who installed it, so no knowledge is lost in the transition.
