Kane Constructions is proud to be recognised at the 2025 Master Builders Victoria Excellence in Construction Awards, taking home top honours in the Commercial Buildings $15M-$20M category for Barwon Health Paediatric Emergency Department.
Delivered in one of Victoria’s busiest hospitals, this project demanded an exceptional standard of construction execution. Kane completed the works across three meticulously staged phases, maintaining full hospital operations while navigating live environments, constrained access and ageing infrastructure.
More than 60 planned service isolations were coordinated without disruption, supported by 3D modelling, off-peak construction and precise stakeholder management. Every activity was timed and sequenced around the critical functioning of the hospital, with temporary service routes and structural adjustments implemented to manage risk and maintain continuity.
The new facility incorporates acute and short-stay treatment areas, triage, resuscitation and consultation rooms, as well as administration spaces and a new Renal Workshop. Built with a strong focus on durability, performance and clinical requirements, the project exemplifies what can be achieved through disciplined planning, technical precision and collaborative delivery.
This award highlights Kane’s continued commitment to delivering healthcare infrastructure that is technically advanced, socially impactful and built with purpose.
