A Blueprint for Change

CONCLUSION We extend our gratitude to everyone who attended our events and participated in the roundtables at our most recent discussions. Your presence and active involvement have been invaluable, enabling us to be bold in formulating a plan for delivery. The resounding message we received was the importance of working together. Local government is at the forefront of addressing sustainability challenges, facing immense financial, operational, and political constraints. Similarly, the infrastructure industry is undergoing a significant transformation, grappling with pressures to meet sustainability targets while delivering higher value outcomes for clients. Our Blueprint for Change sets out a vision for a new collaborative pathway to create the vital change needed across the infrastructure sector. By focusing on People, Planet, and Purpose, we can address critical challenges and seize opportunities. Addressing the skills shortage, setting clear sustainability standards, and aligning commercial incentives with public sector goals are essential steps.
