Our services

Bring us in for a single stage or the full lifecycle. Some clients want one accountable partner the whole way from acquisition to handover. Others need a superintendent, or a straight second opinion on one decision. Either works.

Development management

The early stages are where a project is won or lost, long before anyone turns a sod. This is the work of getting a site or an idea to something viable and fundable, and killing the bad assumptions before they cost you.

Project management

Once a project is moving it needs one partner holding budget, program and quality together, and answering for all three. We run the consultants, the tender, the head contractor and the delivery, and we stay a step ahead of the risk so it gets dealt with early instead of discovered late.

Superintendent services

Under a building contract the superintendent has to be fair to both sides and precise about it. We administer the contract straight down the line: assessing claims, issuing directions, pricing variations, and keeping the commercial side clean so a dispute doesn't derail the job.

Advisory & specialist services

Sometimes you don't need a full project management scope. You need one experienced head on one decision. A feasibility, a due-diligence report, a program that's slipping, a bid that has to land. Bring us in for the piece that matters.

What does a client-side project manager actually do?

A client-side project manager works for the owner, not the builder. We hold cost, program, quality and risk together on your behalf, from the brief through to handover, so you have one partner accountable for the outcome instead of a room full of consultants each responsible for their own slice.

What’s the difference between development management and project management?

Development management is the early work: turning a site or an idea into a viable, fundable project through feasibility, approvals and strategy. Project management is the delivery, running the design, the tender and the construction to a finished building.

We do both, and plenty of clients want us across the two so nothing gets lost in the handover.

What does a superintendent do?

The superintendent administers the building contract and has to act fairly to both the owner and the contractor. That means assessing progress claims, issuing instructions and directions, pricing variations, and certifying the work. It’s a role that lives or dies on independence and precision.

Do we get senior people, or juniors?

Senior people. That’s the point of the firm. We’re senior-led on every engagement, with no handballing.

Can we engage you for a one-off, without a full scope?

Yes. A feasibility, a due-diligence report, a program review or a bid strategy are all things we take on as standalone pieces.

The projects on your site pre-date the firm. How does that work?

Newberry & Co was founded in 2026, so most of the track record is Bob Newberry’s personal experience at his previous firms: Neoscape, Ranbury, Lendlease, Mirvac and mcd Australia. Every project page says which firm he was at and what his role was. We’d rather be specific about that than blur it.
