Deploy - Successful Collaboration During Blockade

When a passenger line shut down for infrastructure upgrades, Deploy played a pivotal role in keeping the project running on schedule so the line could be reopened as planned.

Key Achievements:
Timely and Safe Execution: 

Deploy ensured that all staff involved in the project were harness trained, guaranteeing the safe and efficient completion of works within the designated timeframe.

Expertise Across Roles:

Deploy supplied a diverse team, including LXA staff, COSS’s (Controller of Site Safety), ES’s (Engineering Supervisor), and Supervisors. This comprehensive staffing approach ensured that every aspect of the project was covered with the right expertise.

Round-the-Clock Commitment:

All staff, ranging from COSS’s to ES’s, demonstrated unwavering dedication, working tirelessly around the clock during the blockade. Some staff members opted to stay away from home to maximise their availability and contribute effectively to the project's success.

Conclusion:

Deploy's commitment to providing a skilled, dedicated, and safety-conscious workforce was instrumental in the success of the blockade. The collaborative efforts of all staff, supported by Deploy's strategic recruitment, ensured the project's timely completion and adherence to safety standards. This case study exemplifies Deploy's capability to deliver excellence in complex rail infrastructure projects.
