EP5 - Rethinking real estate delivery with modern methods of construction



Australia’s construction sector is under pressure, and PT Blink is proving there is a faster way forward. In this episode, Martin Fenn, Chief Delivery Officer at PT Blink, shares how the company is rethinking building delivery with advanced offsite manufacturing and structural systems, including delivering a seven-story apartment building in just 11 days.

Beyond speed, PT Blink’s approach reduces risk by shifting complex work into controlled factory environments, cuts labour needs, and improves quality assurance. By integrating modern methods of construction with digital tools like lifetime twins, the model also drives down carbon emissions and extends value across the building lifecycle.

We explore Martin’s path from skilled carpenter to C-suite leader, the innovations powering PT Blink’s rapid growth, and how this model could transform mid and high-rise development.
