The Cockburn ARC, which houses Fremantle’s elite training and administration facility, was acknowledged as the Best Public Use Building (Over $20 million) at the Master Builders-Bankwest Excellence in Construction awards held at the Perth Convention Centre on Saturday night.

The awards have been established as the major commercial/industrial awards in WA since their introduction in 1989, seeing WA’s best commercial projects completed over the past 12 months compete in a range of building categories.

The Fremantle Dockers Football Club would like to acknowledge the efforts of Multiplex Construction and the project team that delivered the state-of-the-art facility for the City of Cockburn and the club.

Fremantle CEO Steve Rosich paid tribute to Multiplex as well as the key stakeholders in the project.

“Alongside the City of Cockburn, we were very fortunate to have had the best construction company in Multiplex build the facility, as well as the team they assembled to deliver it,” Rosich said. 

“Not only did they receive the 2017 Best Public Use Building (Over $20million) but they also took out the prestigious Best 2017 Project award for their work on Crown Towers, so a big congratulations to the team at Multiplex.

“We would also like to acknowledge NS Projects and Sandover Pinder & DWP Suters, who were pivotal in delivering the project.”
