Leighton Contractors
Leighton Contractors is one of Australia’s leading construction, mining, infrastructure, industrial engineering, facilities management, services and telecommunications groups with over $9 billion work in hand, employing more than 9,500 people across Australia and New Zealand.
For over 55 years Leighton Contractors have provided services to governments, major corporations and other clients across Australia, delivering projects that create lasting value for future generations.
With capabilities spanning resources, construction, telecommunications, industrial engineering, energy, infrastructure and facility management, Leighton Contractors’ current project list includes the construction of the $2 billion North-South Bypass Tunnel and the $1.4 billion Gateway Project in Brisbane. They also provide a range of mining services to BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto throughout Australia.
Effectively managing risk is a critical element of the overall business strategy for Leighton Contractors and this has been a key contributor to their ongoing success. The company has recently implemented risk management software, Active Risk Manager (ARM) at the core of its risk management processes which has facilitated standardisation and consistency across the organisation.
Why Active Risk Manager?
A number of different risk management solutions were considered over a period of several months, varying from standalone risk management tools to alternative enterprise risk management packages. The selection process involved representatives from all levels of Leighton Contractors, including board members and potential end users. Active Risk Manager was chosen because of its complete ERM capabilities, easy to use graphical interface and analysis capabilities. Two further factors were the reliability of the product and the experience and skills of provider, Strategic Thought.
“Active Risk Manager was the only ERM solution we looked at which also had integrated analysis capability and enabled usage across all levels of the business,” Karl Davey explained.
“We were reassured by Strategic Thought’s extensive client list of large global companies. Their experience in providing a consultancy-led approach to an ERM roll out was also very important and this has proved invaluable.
“Being based in Australia, Leighton Contractors also needed to know the product was stable and reliable. While support is readily available from both the UK and US, we could not afford any periods of outage.”
