Marshfield Consulting Services is a South Australian owned consultancy firm which was established in 2021 as a successor of Rowlands Build. Rowlands Build has been operating since 2016 as a contract management consultancy for the civil construction sector both in South Australia and New South Wales and over time has gradually onboarded additional resources.
Andrew Rowlands, former owner and Director of Rowlands Build, saw an opportunity to widen his offering to the market and, together with Dirk Fuhrmann, have established Marshfield Consulting Services. Andrew and Dirk have known each other since their first joint project in 2009, when both of them delivered a weir structure project in the Riverland, South Australia.
Marshfield offers end to end consultancy services in the wider construction industry, including program/project development, design management, stakeholder engagement, project/program management, strategic procurement, meeting facilitation, and contract management services.
Our clients range from large government authorities, like the Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT), tier one construction contractors to small to medium enterprises.
Marshfield employs engineering professionals at varying levels with significant program/project development and design management experience from feasibility stages and business cases during the project initiation phases to the benefits realisation at completion handover. Our Directors have both worked in the construction industry for over 20 years for both clients and contractors. Their expertise ranges across all facets of large civil construction projects, including road works, utilities, marine and structural/bridge works, tunnelling, airports and power stations. Most of these projects were state/federal government funded.
We believe that best results will be achieved through honest collaboration and communication. The times of sheer self-interest and ‘making the most of each engagement’ are over, and on that basis, we treat all our clients and employees with the utmost respect. The successes of our clients are our successes. Our vision is that through mutual respect long term relationships are formed that allow for a ‘no surprise’ collaboration with our customers, forming the foundation for the success of our business.
Our employees have specialist experience in various aspects of the project delivery, including quality management, design and design management, staging planning, cost control and reporting.
Marshfield, we offer a wide range of services for the civil construction and building industry; for sponsors, designers and constructors and are always looking for new ways to add value.
Dirk joined Andrew in 2021 when Marshfield Consulting Services was founded.
Andrew established Rowlands Build in 2016 which was transitioned into Marshfield Consulting Services in 2021.
