### Task: First Melbourne market scan for multi-city expansion

### 5 New Melbourne CRM Leads Created:

### Standout Leads:
- **Clifton Formwork (CFV)** — 200+ tradespeople, 1,800+ projects, 25+ years. Tier 1-3 contractors. High-volume hirer = PERFECT fit for $50 model. Multiple $50 fees per month guaranteed.
- **Ardreagh Formwork** — Full FRP packages, actively hiring on Indeed, Quest Geelong project shows serious scale (19,000m² formwork, 500t rebar).
- **PCF Formwork** — Tier-1 professionals, $3B+ delivered, actively hiring Estimator = growth mode.

### Also Identified (Not Yet Added):
- **Grantscapes Constructions** — Melbourne concreting subcontractor (structural, civil, decorative). Actively hiring on Indeed. Needs contact enrichment.
- **Kryptonite Constructions** — Steel fixing, formwork, concreting for commercial/civil/industrial. Needs enrichment.

### Radar Intel Processed:
- Acked Radar's message about Teggman Precast relocating from NSW to Victoria
- Added VIC relocation note to Teggman CRM entry — now bridges Sydney + Melbourne pipelines

### Melbourne Market Observations:
- 47 steel fixer jobs on Seek in Melbourne (vs 44 in Sydney) — Melbourne has EQUAL or higher demand
- Strong demand for formwork carpenters across Metro Melbourne
- BDK Labour Hire appearing frequently = labour hire agencies are active, contractors will be paying markups
- Metro Tunnel $12.58B project driving significant demand
- Western suburbs (Laverton North, Epping, Westmeadows) = formwork company cluster

| Ardreagh Formwork | 82 | 2 |
