Infrastructure Monitor identifies and analyses global trends in private investment in infrastructure to inform future investment and policy.
Resources and examples showcase technology’s role in improving infrastructure performance, and solutions to finance technology and manage risk.
InfraTracker tracks public investment in infrastructure to help governments shape programs and budgets that achieve the best outcomes.
The Improving Delivery Models database of globally proven solutions empowers project teams to avoid and resolve common infrastructure delivery challenges.
This research helps governments and industry ensure that infrastructure investment supports climate mitigation and adaptation, resilience, and inclusive outcomes during challenging economic times.
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) can be integrated in all stages of infrastructure planning and design to transport users into virtual environments that reveal what designs could look like when constructed and how they would impact upon the existing environment.
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) can be used to deploy training programs and assist workers in performing asset inspections and maintenance works.
Drone technologies can enable remote inspection of infrastructure, thereby improving safety by eliminating hazardous tasks previously done by humans.

3D printers can produce components on-site to enable a faster response to maintenance needs, reducing environmental impact from transportation and reducing service downtime.
Digital knowledge platforms that share data and knowledge on-site during construction and maintenance, making it readily accessible to all workers thereby reducing project time while also improving work quality and safety.
Combination of sensors and machine learning to predict timelines and modes of failure for physical and mechanical assets such as pipes, pumps, and motors.
The use of Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence and 5G to enable Smart-Cities-as-a-Service (SCcaas) and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model to optimize the provision of existing public services.
Building Information Modelling (BIM) and pre-fabrication technology being used in conjunction to enable the project to be built virtually before construction, reducing issues or inefficiencies that can arise during the construction stage.
The NSW Government faced a shortage of skilled workers and an ongoing lack of workforce diversity in the infrastructure industry – particularly with respect to women, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and apprentices. The government, in consultation with the construction industry, mandated skills, training, and employment targets for all major government infrastructure projects.
Objective information on upcoming project and investment opportunities in the region has historically been disparate, with differing data standards and procurement models by the Australian Federal, State and Territory, and New Zealand Governments. The Australia and New Zealand Infrastructure Pipeline (ANZIP) was developed to provide a forward view of major infrastructure projects and contracts across the two countries.
The Gateway Review Process, developed by the United Kingdom Office of Government Commerce (OGC) (a Treasury office) in the early 2000s, is a process now used by several jurisdictions around the world that aims to give greater scrutiny and oversight to major projects throughout their lifecycle.
Digital Design-Built Policies are coherent plans for digital infrastructure delivery which align with recognised industry standards and frameworks. They seek to digitise the asset lifecycle by requiring the use of specific digital technologies in the design and construction process.
Preparations for the London 2012 Olympics involved 137 projects each in separate contracts of varying scale, from major works including the 80,000-seat Olympic stadium, through to preparation works at small-scale competition spaces. The program was delivered amid a local environment of heavy government, media, regulatory, and public scrutiny that demanded the program be delivered on-time with positive health and safety, quality, and environmental and sustainability outcomes .
The Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) undertakes infrastructure projects within the city covering assets such as roads, tunnels, and subway lines. Design and planning are performed by departments within SMG while the actual construction work is the responsibility of the Seoul Metropolitan Infrastructure Headquarters (SMIH).
Infraclear has gathered one of the world’s biggest databases of infrastructure project agreements and developed machine learning and natural language processing algorithms to extract granular data on terms.
