Testimonial
“I recently worked with Daniel from D-TAL on a large $1.4B Design and Construct Infrastructure Tender as part of the proposed Sydney M7-M12 upgrade. My role as civil lead was to develop construction methodologies for a complex 3-tier intersection with 8 on/off ramps. The tender period was extremely tight and as a result, created a high-pressure environment.
I worked with Daniel directly to verify the proposed construction methodology and produce Traffic Management (TTM) staging drawings for the tender submission. Daniel and the D-TAL team were excellent to work with. In a high-pressure environment often working remotely via Teams, we were able to produce a well-thought-out and validated temporary works staging for the tender.
Daniel is a great communicator and is fully aware of the design standards and client expectations for temporary traffic management. Daniel was able to quickly identify solutions for complex alignment issues and always met his deadlines.
This is the second time I have worked with Daniel and both times have been a very positive experience. Daniel is a dedicated professional with high drive. I would not hesitate to work with him again.”
