Shaping infrastructure decisions for resilient asset outcomes

With demand for investable infrastructure projects and programs often outstripping supply, organisations are being challenged to provide satisfactory investment returns for owners while also improving the well-being and resilience of communities and the environment.

Achieving these outcomes requires a deep understanding of the way that commercial project outcomes must address corporate strategy and stakeholder expectations of return on investment. We make this possible by combining our advisory, design and engineering services to drive asset value and organisational transformation.

Aurecon’s infrastructure advisory specialists work with public and private organisations to help them navigate strategic, technical, commercial and risk uncertainties to inform major infrastructure investment and support project delivery requirements.

We also work with clients to navigate the integrated planning requirements to transition assets in response to market and stakeholder pressures necessitating operational shifts.

Our difference

Aurecon is uniquely positioned to interpret the strategic, commercial, technical and risk language of organisations and convert these into actions to improve business performance and asset value.

Our value to clients is the way we connect strategy with infrastructure requirements to optimise the quality and rationale of investment decisions regarding new or existing assets. This results in capital productivity improvements, together with improved returns across asset portfolios, and enables our clients to meet their stakeholder and customer expectations.

The combination of Aurecon’s infrastructure advisory service offerings with our core design and engineering expertise means we create a uniquely insightful loop between the strategic, commercial and technical understanding of infrastructure assets.

Infrastructure advisory services for asset-intensive clients

Our advisors and management consultants deliver strategic advisory services spanning the entire infrastructure asset lifecycle. Our advice extends beyond solely conceptual solutions, informed by our broad engineering, delivery and management capabilities.

Making optimum asset procurement and investment decisions is a fundamental driver for achieving organisational success and providing stakeholder value. We support our clients in investment decision making to drive maximum value from each of their assets and across their portfolios, and to shape the pathways for funding, approval, governance, engineering and procurement. We do this by delivering:

  • Business cases
  • Economics and regulatory advice
  • Due diligence

To partner with Aurecon for making informed investment decisions, contact investment advisory lead, Rebecca Hollett.

Infrastructure advisory is the connector, providing overarching planning and specialised advice so that our clients can address the complex and interrelated challenges of the closure, transition and renewal journey. These can include sustaining capital investment, assessment of economic outcomes, business cases, safety, reliability, maintenance regimes, environmental approvals, decommissioning, demolition, rehabilitation, maintaining a social licence to operate, and future land use.

Aurecon’s infrastructure advisory specialists lead this conversation for clients through:

  • Closure strategy, transition and renewal planning
  • Sustaining capital: portfolio planning
  • Asset reinvestment strategy and decision frameworks
  • Asset portfolio planning

For asset closure, transition and renewal planning contact Simon Mezger.

We partner with our clients and stakeholders to achieve better placemaking outcomes for communities and regions to support economic growth by integrating land use and infrastructure investment planning.

We help clients to masterplan, shape the strategic intent of projects, and deliver long-term infrastructure solutions. Asset owners have access to our knowledge and experience to make optimal procurement pathway decisions, assess different contracting models, and improve value realisation on large and complex projects. We provide:

  • Master planning and project shaping
  • Asset options development
  • Technical, procurement and contract advisory

To shape the intent of your project or develop options for delivery, contact major infrastructure development lead, Bianca Bortolin.

We apply a combination of strategic, commercial and technical acumen to solve complex business problems for our clients. We are outcome focused and leverage our deep infrastructure delivery expertise to anticipate issues ahead of our competitors.
