Saudah’s skill in coordinating construction and managing complex interfaces – combined with her ability to remain calm and level-headed even in extreme environments – is reflected in her regularly being handed works on the critical path, including on her current role as a Project Engineer on the Western Program Alliance’s Webb Street Level Crossing Removal.
Part of Saudah’s success comes from proactively developing the detailed staging plans needed to understand every element of her task, and then leveraging this understanding to benefit the overall project. In Saudah’s current role she is responsible for planning and executing the delivery of a Retained Earth Structure following this successful achievement she was tasked with delivering the Roads and Pavement package. This included the delivery of Webb Street Road upgrade and the construction of 680 carparks in the Narre Warren precinct where she lead and coordinated a team of 4 engineers. Saudah successfully managed the package under a self-perform arrangement coordinating bulk earth works, lime stabilisation, drainage construction, pavement construction, kerb and channel, asphalting, shared user path construction, construction of two DDA compliant PTV Bus bays and installation of road furniture across the Webb Street Project. Saudah’s role included procurement, programming, on site coordination and cost forecasting. Her experience to execute plan and agility to problem solve has lead to the successful completion of Webb Street upgrade within program and cost forecast. The Webb street upgrade success was a result of no safety and environmental incidents.

The role saw her develop precast building layout design concepts, document pre-stress precast casting methodology, and help set up the project’s precast yard in Benalla. She also coordinated with the international manufacturer of the precast moulds and the steel fabricator of the stressing beds, as well as procuring and establishing the pre-stress curing system.
Saudah’s design management was vital in ensuring the precast for the project’s 90 different structures was as uniform as possible, including the precast required for smoke ducts, road deck, bridge planks and super-Ts. Her work in standardising designs minimised the number of moulds and void formers required, reducing the overall footprint of the facility.
