Commercial Construction
New-build commercial projects need early cost clarity, disciplined procurement and a site team that can manage authorities, consultants and trades without losing programme control. Moltus delivers commercial construction from feasibility through to commissioning and defects close-out.
How we run a commercial build.
Every commercial construction project we take on is set up around early cost certainty, controlled procurement and a disciplined site team. We get involved before drawings are final so risk, sequencing and authority approvals are mapped before the first trade is engaged.
Early cost clarity before tender
We work alongside your consultants in design to test buildability and lock target costs before procurement, so funding decisions are made on real numbers — not optimistic estimates.
A site team that owns the programme
Our site managers run weekly look-ahead programmes, trade coordination and authority liaison so the build holds its dates through ground works, structure, services and fit-off.
A clean handover, then a managed defects period
Commissioning, certification, training and the 12-month defects liability period are scheduled as part of the build — not bolted on after practical completion.
Contract structures for commercial builds.
Choose the construction model that fits your documentation, risk profile and funding pathway — from lump sum certainty to early contractor involvement before tender.
Lump Sum
Fixed-price delivery against a fully documented design — certainty for tenants and lenders.
Construction Management
Open-book delivery with transparent trade packages, real-time cost reporting and shared savings.
Design & Construct
Single point of accountability across design, approvals and construction for faster outcomes.
Early Contractor Involvement
Buildability, programme and cost advice during design — de-risking projects before tender.
Commercial typologies we deliver.
Our team is set up for commercial buildings where governance, safety and reporting matter — projects with multiple stakeholders, formal approvals and long-life assets.
Office, mixed-use and tenant base-build
Multi-storey commercial offices, mixed-use ground-plane retail and tenant base-builds where landlord, fund manager and incoming tenant programmes all need to align.
Government and education facilities
Procurement-compliant builds for ACT and Commonwealth agencies, schools, training centres and tertiary facilities — delivered under formal probity, safety and reporting regimes.
Health, community and civic buildings
Clinics, allied-health hubs, community centres and civic facilities where infection control, accessibility and after-hours operation drive sequencing and finish quality.
A construction process built for certainty.
Commercial construction moves through clear gates: feasibility, design coordination, procurement, construction, commissioning and a managed defects period.
Discovery & feasibility
We sit with you to understand the brief, site constraints, programme and budget envelope.
Design coordination
We work alongside your design team — providing buildability, cost and programme advice.
Procurement
Trade packages tendered to a vetted Canberra and Brisbane subcontractor base.
Construction
Delivery under ISO-accredited safety, quality and environmental systems.
Commissioning & handover
Staged commissioning, asset registers, O&M manuals and warranties.
Defects & aftercare
12-month defects liability supported by a dedicated post-handover team.
Why choose Moltus for your commercial build.
Commercial construction comes down to whether your builder can hold cost, programme and quality at the same time. That is what we are set up to do.
Cost certainty backed by buildability
We test the design before tender, flag risk early and lock target costs so the contract value you sign is the value you finish on — not a starting point for variations.
Programme discipline on site
Weekly look-aheads, controlled trade engagement and visible authority milestones mean the build keeps moving through structure, services and finishes.
ISO-accredited governance
We operate under ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 — quality, environment and safety systems your funders, agencies and tenants can audit at any point in the build.
