HM - Building Works Project Management

Line Item Description

This NDIS support item is allocated under the Capital - Home Modifications category. The line item covers the cost associated with professional Building Works Project Management for complex or large-scale Home Modifications (HM).

Project Management funding is crucial for ensuring that significant home modifications, such as structural alterations to bathrooms, kitchens, or access areas, are completed efficiently, to the required standard, and in line with the participant's specific disability-related needs as prescribed by the Allied Health Professional (e.g., Occupational Therapist). This support item pays for the non-labour costs associated with coordinating the building project.

The activities covered by this line item typically include:

Coordination and Scheduling: Managing and coordinating the various tradespeople (builders, plumbers, electricians) involved in the modification project.

Tender and Procurement Management: Assisting with the tender process, managing quotes, and coordinating contracts with qualified builders and suppliers.

Oversight and Quality Assurance: Monitoring the progress of the building work, ensuring compliance with architectural drawings, specifications, and relevant building codes.

Financial Administration: Managing invoices and payments related to the building contract on behalf of the participant or nominee.

This support is a critical non-trade component of major home modifications, ensuring the construction phase runs smoothly and delivers the outcome required to enhance the participant's independence and safety at home. Claims are made against the specific support number: 06_182490112_0111_2_2.
