Testimonials
“Wildara and Peter Bowden in particular, always performed at a very high level in a very demanding environment on and extremely complex project that was characterised by diverse stakeholders, remote location with no organic workforce or support infrastructure such as materials supply and highly charged political situation of delivering a foreign government policy outcome in a country that was not receptive to this. Wildara managed all of these aspects as well as an underperforming Contractor to achieve client expectations around time, cost and quality.” – A. Rankin – Technical Director, Government & Defence
