"From a site management perspective, Michael is someone you want leading a job."

That's how the site manager on Goodwin Downer project put it. We couldn't agree more, which is why we're proud to share that our Senior PM Michael Grace is a finalist for the 2026 MBA ACT PM of the Year Award.

Michael has been part of the Manteena family for over 15 years. In that time he's led some of our most complex projects and done it the same way every time: straight up, no shortcuts, team first.

Congratulations, Michael. 👏

Before we share some exciting news next week, we're taking a moment to look back. 🏆

In 2023, Manteena took home the National Renovations/Extensions Award ($650K–$1M) at the MBA National Excellence in Building and Construction Awards, one of the most prestigious recognitions in Australia's building industry.

A proud moment for our team, and a testament to the craft and dedication that goes into everything we build.

Stay tuned.

The skyline of Barton is about to change.

We're on the tools at 10 Brisbane Avenue, an 8-level commercial build for developer in Canberra's National Capital Parliamentary Precinct. Fifty years of design-led development shows in every detail here: a soaring 8-storey atrium, ribbon-like sculptural stairs, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a 6 Star NABERS design target backed by on-site solar generation.

Willemsen Group set the bar high on this one. We're building it.

Project Highlight | Wi******er Australia

Zeroed was engaged by Wi******er Australia to deliver a comprehensive refurbishment of their existing indoor firing range facility.

As part of the Manteena, Zeroed brings specialist capability to projects requiring technical precision, safety and operational performance.

The project involved the upgrade of three separate indoor ranges, including targeted acoustic and ventilation remediation, along with refurbishment of the front-of-house areas and upgrades to gunsmith facilities.
Each range has been fitted with an Action Target Rubber Berm Trap, and new target systems include a Pilot Target Retriever and an Auto Target System, delivering improved performance, safety, and operational capability.

A technically demanding project with one of the most recognised names in the industry. Great outcome all round.

Winter has a way of making you realise how much the living room matters. It's where you land after a cold commute, where the day finally slows down. These are some of the spaces we've had the privilege of designing for clients who trusted us to build their dream home.
