Improving delivery certainty and outcomes

With an increasing focus on delivering complex infrastructure programmes that are safer, better, faster, greener and more efficient, we leverage the power of data and leading edge digital technology, optimise delivery models and behaviours to realise the full cultural and commercial potential and draw on our quality assurance and risk management experience in highly regulated, politically charged, stakeholder rich environments.

As your trusted delivery partner, we believe early engagement is vital. We will work with you from the outset to define what value means to you and to address some of the wider needs of society such as the drive towards net zero and enhancing social value. We believe close collaboration is the key to unlocking innovation and better ways to design, deliver and operate infrastructure.

Harnessing data and digital technologies

In 2020, we started the implementation of our Smart Delivery Platform (SDP) which helps boost project performance through a strategic approach to merging and mining project data for a more in-depth understanding of your operations. SDP is proving to be an effective digital toolkit for de-risking a project through better, more accurate and valuable insights into your operations, which inform decision making and enable accurate and timely intervention.

In this article, members of an expert panel convened by the Railway Industry Association, discuss how excellence in delivery requires getting the very best out of the supply chain and ensuring an agile and focused approach. Ultimately, we always need to put the customers who pay for rail infrastructure at the heart of our thinking.
