Over the past 3-4 years Hirotec has been actively involved in building two (2) major data centres for Bluescope in their Port Kembla plant.
The projects involved Hirotec providing a detailed design and specification of the new Main Computer Room and associated buildings. Then after the design phase full demolition and Building Works and installation of all services and infrastructure (including the Raised Floor, Underfloor cable racks etc.).
Upon finalisation of the construction phase which included the testing and commissioning, Hirotec also were engaged to undertake the maintenance and support of the room on a 24×7 basis.
Hirotec has continued its long partnership with the University of Western Sydney (UWS) by extending their contract with UWS to continue the mechanical services through-out all campuses in NSW.
Part of the comprehensive mechanical services agreement included the integration of all building management controls systems across all campuses’ under one overarching umbrella to provide a seamless and transparent system.
“These type of contracts reinforce our well established position in the Australian market of being an innovative solutions partner with the best people, knowledge and expertise with a Long Term & Loyal Customer Base.” said Hirotec General Manager (Operations), Andrew Douglas.
As a long-term partner of the University of Wollongong (UOW), Hirotec was more than happy to be part of their major fundraising event of the year.
STUMPING SERIOUS DISEASES is a weekend of fun and excitement revolving around a celebrity Twenty20 cricket match with Test cricket hero Adam Gilchrist and a host of other famous faces, followed by a gala dinner.
The University of Wollongong is committed to improving the health and well-being of the community through research into the causes and treatment of serious diseases. All proceeds assist the medical research teams in their important work.
Hirotec was recently awarded the prestigious honour of partnering with the University of Western Sydney to deliver the Hawkesbury Forest experiment project.
The project is a carefully integrated program of experimental and modelling approaches. The centrepiece of the project is a field facility with 12 CO2 and temperature-controlled whole-tree chambers provided by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. The whole-tree chambers can house entire trees up to 12 metres tall. This unique facility is the first of its type in Australia and the Southern Hemisphere.
Hirotec’s scope was to carefully develop and control the conditions in the chambers in order for the experiment’s to be successful.
Hirotec recently took part in the annual MS Sydney to the Gong Bike Ride in order to raise funds for people affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS). MS is the most common disease of the central nervous system and affects more than 20,000 Australians.
Close to twenty bike enthusiasts from some of Hirotec’s branch offices, clients and supply partners put their body and cycling skills to the test through some challenging hills through the Wollongong national forest.
The University of Sydney (USYD) and Hirotec have developed a leading edge computer information system which exchange’s data “live”.
When Hirotec were awarded the University of Sydney’s mechanical and fire services maintenance contract, it was due to more than Hirotec’s on site abilities. Hirotec was the only organization that had demonstrated experience in exchanging data between the client and Hirotec’s system.
This has created more than just a typical mechanical and fire services contract, this has created a partnership that allows Hirotec to be part of USYD campus infrastructure services (CIS) team. Enabling “live” information to all USYD stakeholders.
Hirotec is no stranger to being recognised as a leader in innovation and technology. As an early adopter of PDA technology for usage in service field mobility, Hirotec was asked to be a guest speaker at the upcoming Australian Field Mobility Summit 2010.
Hirotec’s Walter Rafin, will present a Case Study titled “Integrated Services for a Technical World” showcasing how Hirotec implemented a complex, productive field service mobility solution in 2003 and the challenges and the latest in innovation development.
The Summit offers a unique opportunity for cross industry comparison and benchmarking by assembling best practice examples for each area of field service management and workplace mobility from different industry verticals.
