Governance Assurance & Capital Stewardship
Closure & land assurance
Contractor & execution assurance
Contractor & Execution Assurance applies independent, owner-side governance assurance to ensure closure and land transition execution remains compliant and aligned with approved scope, environmental requirements and ESG expectations. Contractor performance, change control and environmental responsibilities are governed under owner authority to reduce execution risk and strengthen accountability. TacminMadini does not perform or manage execution. Delivery remains with appointed contractors and owner teams. The focus is on governing performance, assuring decisions and maintaining defensible outcomes that protect land value and reduce long-term liability.
Ensuring closure delivery aligns with legal and ESG frameworks
Why it matters | Weak contractor performance oversight increases the likelihood of delay, cost escalation and non-compliance across closure and land transition activities. When performance is not governed, contractors may prioritise productivity or cost over environmental, social and regulatory obligations, exposing owners to operational, reputational and financial risk. |
Our focus | We establish clear performance expectations, structured reporting and escalation pathways aligned to approved closure or land transition objectives. Progress is monitored against agreed baselines, deviations are surfaced early and corrective actions are governed through formal owner-side decision pathways to maintain alignment with approved requirements. |
Outcome | Disciplined performance control that reduces variability, strengthens accountability and provides owners with assurance that closure and land transition activities are delivered in accordance with approved plans, regulatory conditions and ESG commitments. |
Managing change transparently to protect cost and compliance.
Why it matters | Uncontrolled change creates uncertainty, inflates costs and undermines regulatory defensibility across closure and land transition activities. Informal variation practices can conceal scope drift, increase liability and compromise environmental or community commitments, creating disputes, delay and approval risk. |
Our focus | We govern change approval pathways and variation evaluation, ensuring decisions are transparent, justified and aligned with approved closure or land transition plans. Commercial, environmental, schedule and compliance implications are assessed before approval to limit risk and preserve owner control. |
Outcome | Controlled and defensible change management that protects budgets, safeguards compliance and maintains predictable delivery across closure and land transition activities under disciplined governance. |
Maintaining compliance and protecting safety throughout execution.
Why it matters | Closure and land transition activities carry heightened environmental and safety risk. Weak oversight can lead to non-compliance, penalties, reputational harm and increased long-term liability. Communities and regulators expect demonstrable conformance throughout execution and recovery phases, not just at completion. |
Our focus | We govern environmental and safety responsibilities across contractors and delivery interfaces, ensuring execution aligns with regulatory standards, land-use conditions and approved closure or transition requirements. Reporting, monitoring and verification are structured to surface issues early and support timely, governed intervention. |
Outcome | Safer and more compliant execution that reduces exposure, protects land and workforce wellbeing and builds confidence in closure and land transition integrity under regulatory and stakeholder scrutiny. |
Single-point accountability when owners require execution.
Why it matters | Certain closure or land transition programs require a single accountable delivery entity rather than fragmented contractor arrangements. Disaggregated execution models can dilute control, increase interface risk and weaken accountability for performance, safety and compliance, particularly where outcomes are under heightened regulatory or public scrutiny. |
Our focus | Where explicitly mandated, we execute closure or land transition works under a governed framework integrating oversight, environmental and safety obligations, cost control and accountability. Contractor and specialist coordination may be consolidated under TacminMadini or approved partners, while governance and assurance disciplines remain intact. |
Outcome | A governed execution pathway that consolidates responsibility, strengthens transparency and delivers measurable closure or land transition outcomes under a single accountable framework, reducing complexity, residual exposure and long-term risk. |
