AGIC is a member based industry association committed to the delivery of more sustainable outcomes from the design, construction and operation of Australia's infrastructure. AGIC was formed in 2008 by industry professionals from engineering, environmental, planning, legal, and financial and construction backgrounds working in both private and public organisations related to infrastructure.

What is sustainability actually worth to your infrastructure business?

CIEAM, the CRC for Infrastructure Engineering Asset Management, is conducting a brief on-line survey to test industry perceptions about whether business benefits often claimed for sustainability such as cost savings, strengthened reputation, and reduced risk also apply to infrastructure.   The research, which uses the AGIC rating framework, will give infrastructure executives and senior managers’ critical information on which sustainability initiatives can benefit their business - and on which may be wasteful.

We ask that you participate – it should take you less than 15 minutes.

On 29 February, 2012, AGIC launched the IS Rating Scheme for the design, construction and operation         of Australian infrastructure, with the IS rating tool      now available for use.

ARA Sustainability in Transport Conference

27-28 June 2012

The Consult Australia Report – Tomorrow’s Cities Today,  was developed through individual and peer review provided by Consult Australia’s Infrastructure Roundtable and Sustainability Roundtable. The Consult Australia Roundtables gather together experts across disciplines drawn from Australia’s leading firms consulting in the built and natural environment.

The report, specifically targeted gaps in the regulatory environment around energy, transport and telecommunications infrastructure, created before climate change was considered a serious threat.  The report will feed into the Productivity Commissions current investigations into climate change adaptation.
