BAC Aeromedical Hub — Brisbane Airport

Live: airport-precinct aeromedical hub handover — under construction, Procom compiling the O&M and DLP register in parallel.

By Updated

What the project involves

The Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) Aeromedical Hub is a purpose-built precinct at Brisbane Airport supporting fixed-wing aeromedical operations. The project is live — under construction at time of writing — with handover scheduled for early 2027. Procom is compiling the O&M handover and seeding the DLP register in parallel with construction, so the manual is built progressively rather than in a single end-of-project sprint.

The handover challenge

Airport-precinct projects present a particular handover profile. The building sits inside an airfield safety zone, which means compliance evidence has to satisfy both the standard building handover and CASR Part 139 (Civil Aviation Safety Regulations) referenced obligations. Operationally, the aeromedical use means the facility has to be available on a tight commissioning window — there's no easy slippage when patients are scheduled.

How Procom is delivering

Because the project is live, Procom is running a build-as-you-go compilation. Subcontractor submissions are uploaded against their relevant sections as construction reaches each milestone — not held back for a pre-handover document drop. The review team validates each submission as it lands, so by handover the manual is already 80% closed. The DLP register is being seeded with predicted defect classes during construction, so the operator's facility team can log issues against named sections from the first day of operation.

  • Live, progressive manual compilation rather than end-of-project sprint.
  • CASR Part 139 referenced evidence integrated into the standard handover pack.
  • Pre-seeded DLP register handed over with the manual on day one.

What this proves

The BAC Aeromedical Hub is the live example of Procom's progressive-handover model — the platform supports a manual that's built during construction rather than after it. For projects with tight operational commissioning windows, this is the model that de-risks the handover date. See DLP maintenance services for how the DLP seeding integrates with the live manual.
