Provac acquisition set to realign market in NT

Provac Excavations NT Managing Director James Fitzpatrick with Pat Whitehead, Plumbing NT Managing Director.

Provac Excavations NT has officially been acquired by Plumbing NT according to the latter company.

Provac Excavations is a specialist in hydro-vac excavation, non-destructive digging and GPR underground service locating across the Northern Territory.

Plumbing NT said bringing these capabilities in-house was a deliberate move to strengthen how it delivers plumbing, civil and infrastructure projects.

The acquisition, according to Plumbing NT, will allow it to deliver integrated plumbing and excavation scopes under one roof.

Other advantages the company anticipates to arise from the partnership include optimised safety and certainty around underground services; risk reduction and mitigation of delays for clients; and the ability to take on larger, more complex projects within the region.

Provac will continue operating in the Northern Territory with the same experienced team — now backed by the scale, systems and project capability of Plumbing NT.

The Northern Territory construction market continues to evolve.

Clients, in line with this progress, are demanding greater capability depth, stronger risk controls, fewer interfaces, clearer accountability and contractors who can deliver in the territory according to Plumbing NT.

“This acquisition is about meeting that expectation,” the company said on Linkedin.

“We’re proud to welcome the Provac team to the Plumbing NT group and excited about what we will build together.”
