Crown Certificate Consultant in NSW
Section 6.28 Crown certificate assessments for government and Crown-occupied building works across NSW.
What is Crown certification?
A Crown certificate is the certification pathway for building work carried out by or on behalf of the Crown in NSW, issued under Section 6.28 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act. BCAlign provides Crown certification services across NSW, assessing Crown Certificate applications, carrying out inspections during construction, and issuing the Crown Completion Statement. We work with government departments, Crown building managers and design teams to navigate a certification process that differs meaningfully from standard construction and occupation certificates. Our registered NSW Building Surveyors (Unrestricted) provide clear technical advice on Crown compliance obligations at every stage of a project.
What does BCAlign's Crown certification service cover?
BCAlign manages Crown certification from assessment through to completion. Our service covers:
BCA and Access assessments for Crown building works
Assessment and approval of Section 6.28 Crown Certificate applications
Inspections during construction phases
Review and correlation of certification documentation and issue of the Crown Completion Statement
Technical advice to project teams on Crown compliance obligations throughout all project stages
Who needs a Crown certificate consultant?
Government departments, Crown building managers, developers and design teams working on Crown occupied or Crown owned projects across NSW need a Crown certificate consultant. Because the pathway is specialised, experienced guidance prevents delays and ensures documentation is correct the first time.
Why choose BCAlign for Crown certification?
Crown certification is a niche, specialised area, and our directors' backgrounds across council and private consultancy give us direct experience with the specific requirements Crown building work involves. We provide clear guidance through a process many teams encounter rarely.
What is a Crown certificate in NSW?
A Crown certificate certifies that Crown building work complies with the Building Code of Australia and relevant requirements, and it is issued under Section 6.28 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. It applies to buildings owned or occupied by the NSW Government, which follow a distinct approval pathway from private development.
Why choose BCAlign as your BCA consultant?
BCAlign combines broad knowledge across BCA, access and fire safety requirements with a pragmatic, commercially aware approach. Every assessment is led by a registered NSW Building Surveyor (Unrestricted), and where discretionary calls are needed we provide sound, well justified opinions that satisfy both clients and design teams.
