Enhancing the value of Australian infrastructure
Opportunity abounds for Aussie projects and communities
At RPS, we believe there are many opportunities to enhance the value of Australia's investment in infrastructure. Explore our ideas below.
Opportunity: evidence and business cases
Infrastructure is a key driver for Australia's economy. But are we setting ourselves up for success in the front end? Are we letting worthwhile projects fall through the cracks? Here are some of the ways RPS is helping infrastructure proponents and decision-makers go beyond traditional cost-benefit thinking and invest wisely in Australia's future.
Getting to shovel-ready faster
With such an immense pipeline of projects planned for the Australian market, how do we make sure we're progressing at pace? Strategic changes to the way projects are prioritised, planned, and procured can help accelerate infrastructure approval and delivery.

Opportunity: social value creation
Making social value creation central to your infrastructure practise can help you build trust with stakeholders, reduce risk, and deliver better projects. But social value is still a sticking point for the Australian infrastructure sector. We think it's time for that to change.

Opportunity: community engagement

Are you reaching out to them in ways that work for them? If not, you may be missing out on valuable insights that could take your project to the next level.
Digital engagement spaces
Social distancing has accelerated the trend towards online forms of community engagement. We're supporting clients to make their engagement activities authentic, accessible, and meaningful through RPS designed digital engagement spaces.
