Project Description
Client:
Christchurch Stadium Trust
Project Value:
$35 million
AMI Stadium has a seating capacity of over 18,000 people for sporting events – a capacity that extends to 30,000 for concerts. The ground and buildings were redeveloped following the earthquakes and now serves as the venue for provincial and international rugby union and league matches, and outdoor arena concerts and shows. Thirteen AMI Stadium corporate boxes overlook the grounds. Each is capable of holding up to 60 people, making them a fantastic option for meetings and corporate gatherings.
Our responsibilities included the preparation of budgets and monitoring costs of all development related costs including construction, professional fees, pitch, floodlights and all associated infrastructure upgrades to support the facility. Monthly financial reports and payment recommendations were prepared and submitted detailing all changes to each cost centre and any spend in the period against contingency and/ or escalation allowances.
The opening of the new stadium was the culmination of a very busy few months for the construction team with the project being completed in under 80 days.
