CCCI, the international development subsidiary of the world's fourth largest construction company, China Communications Construction Company (CCCC), entered the Australian market in 2015 by purchasing John Holland, a leading Australian engineering construction company. The acquisition will see John Holland further expand its operations in Australia as a major engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor, and participate in Australian PPP projects across major infrastructure segments.
Recently, John Holland won the A$324 million early-works package for the Melbourne Metro project. It has been shortlisted as a member of the John Holland, CPB Contractors and Ghella joint venture for tunnelling on the Sydney Metro City & Southwest project. It has also been shortlisted with McConnell Dowell Constructors and UGL Engineering for the A$587 million Mernda Rail project in Victoria.
