My sincere thanks to RDT Pacific and the wider project team for their outstanding contribution to this important justice facility and the timely delivery of the building fit-out. Quality was particularly well managed, as was the move management.
RDT Pacific were instrumental in delivering this important Justice facility, with a consistent focus on programme, quality and stakeholder alignment throughout the fitout and relocation. My sincere thanks to RDT Pacific and the wider team for helping deliver this excellent outcome for the Coroners and staff, enabling them to better serve whānau facing difficult circumstances.
Having RDT Pacific on the team has brought clarity to scope, programme and cost, that helped us manage change in a way that support the long‑term outcomes for our whānau and future tenants.
Through project management services and as Engineer to the Contract, RDT Pacific kept this rapidly delivered programme on course and on budget, integrating basebuild and fit‑out with Green Star advisory so the depot was delivered efficiently. The project achieved a 5‑Star Green Star Design & As Built NZv1.1 Design Review rating and supported our social procurement goals, with over a quarter of the contract value delivered by Waikato Tainui tribal contractors.
The Mānawa Bay project was delivered exceptionally, thanks to the dedication and stewardship of RDT Pacific. From the outset, RDT worked in partnership with Auckland Airport to ensure that our objectives were met, maintaining a positive project culture throughout.
The RDT Pacific Cost Management team were engaged by N2D3 Properties Limited to provide Bank Funding Quantity Surveying services for the construction of Gaia (Earth) Preschool New Zealand, in Manurewa, Auckland, operated by Chrysalis Group Ltd.
Laura and the RDT Pacific QS team came into the project at the Detailed Design stage to provide a level of cost certainty around the proposed design. They integrated seamlessly with the project team.
During construction, we encountered some unprecedented cost challenges due to the constraints of COVID-19 and significant cost increases for timber after the forest fires in Australia. Laura and the team worked with the bank to minimise uncertainty and ensure the project outcomes were met so we were able to open our outstanding facility in mid-2022.
Throughout the Gaia project, the RDT team were accessible, providing valuable advice and problem-solving with a professional approach and in a timely manner.
Their ability to work through a challenging situation, applying commitment, knowledge and out-of-the box thinking is unparalleled and the project was ultimately completed within budget.
We look forward to opportunities for N2D3 Properties Limited and RDT Pacific to work together again in the future.
RDT Pacific’s expertise in project management, cost management, and property advisory has helped us unlock value across our portfolio of properties.

RDT were engaged as Ministry of Education’s ETC and PM to the project. They were reliable, attentive and great to work alongside with. I appreciated their assistance with keeping the project on track and ensuring any issues were mitigated in a timely manner.
We enjoyed the energy, insights and professionalism of the RDT team and are very pleased with the outcome of the due diligence report. RDT have experience and skills but most of all, they show a huge amount of respect for te ao Māori.
