John Morony Correctional Complex, an Australian maximum- and minimum-security prison complex for males and females, is located along The Northern Road, Berkshire Park, 5 kilometres south of Windsor in New South Wales, Australia. The complex is operated by Corrective Services NSW, an agency of the Department of Attorney General and Justice, of the Government of New South Wales.

The complex comprises three separate correctional facilities including the John Morony Correctional Centre (a medium security correctional centre for men); the Outer Metropolitan Multi-Purpose Correctional Centre (a minimum-security correctional centre for men); and Dillwynia Correctional Centre (a medium security correctional centre for women). Additional administrative units of Corrective Services NSW are located on-site including the Security & Intelligence Branch, the Specialized Training Unit, the Drug Detector Dog Unit and the Pre Release Programs Unit.

The Department of Attorney General and Justice/Asset Management Services engaged the services of Woolacotts Consulting Engineers to undertake a desktop review of the existing hydraulic documentation for the John Morony Correctional Complex and to provide a report on the adequacy of the existing services, gas, water, sewerage and fire hydrants systems to service the proposed future works.

Woolacotts has been engaging in projects in John Morony Correctional Centre since 2004.
