Biosecurity Conquered for Mega Crawler Crane Delivery

Task & Details:

Complex Challenge, Biosecurity Compliance, 24/7 Supervision, Comprehensive Documentation

When Fagioli needed to import one of the world’s largest crawler cranes into Australia, they turned to NMT Projects. We were energized by the challenge of ensuring the used crane met stringent biosecurity standards set by the Australian Government’s Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) under tight deadlines.

Client Background

Fagioli hired a massive used Tadano CC 88.1600/1, one of the largest in the world, which did not meet DAFF’s biosecurity import requirements for Australia.

The Challenge

NMT Projects faced the monumental task of meticulously cleaning the gigantic crane to achieve full biosecurity compliance within a tight timeframe. This involved adhering to DAFF’s strict standards, 24/7 supervision, and comprehensive documentation for approval.

Our Unstoppable Execution

Leveraging deep expertise in used machinery imports, NMT Projects guided Fagioli through every step of the process and regulations. Our team demonstrated relentless commitment through:

  • 24/7 on-site supervision of the cleaning process
  • Detailed documentation with daily reports on cleaning procedures
  • Consolidated final report submitted to DAFF for import approval

The Results

Through our unstoppable efforts, the crane was successfully imported into Australia and operational on site without any delays. NMT Projects’ meticulous approach kept this complex project firmly on track despite the biosecurity hurdles.

“Our challenge was to have the crane meticulously cleaned in a tight timeframe given the scale of works required and NMT Projects to supervise and fully document and report the cleaning process.” – NMT Projects
