Transport & Infrastructure

Integrated Systems. Confident Delivery. Sustainable Advantage. We bring technical clarity, program assurance and lifecycle insight to deliver transport infrastructure that performs - from concept to operations.

We support government and industry to plan, assure and deliver complex transport and infrastructure programs - enabling safe, sustainable and commercially effective outcomes across rail, aviation and maritime environments.

We work across the full asset lifecycle – from feasibility and regulatory readiness through to commissioning, integration and sustainment. Whether assuring rolling stock, supporting major infrastructure delivery or integrating net-zero and digital air traffic systems, we bring the systems thinking, regulatory depth and delivery clarity needed to move with pace and confidence.

Our work spans high-capacity rail, air navigation, port infrastructure and emerging mobility systems. We operate across brownfield, greenfield and high-consequence programs – aligning national policy with delivery on the ground.

With teams embedded on major projects and delivery experience across Australia, New Zealand, the United States and the United Kingdom, we combine global perspective with local expertise to reduce risk, compress timelines and bring critical infrastructure into service – with assurance that lasts.

Productivity | Impact | Performance

From Planning to Operation

We align strategy, engineering and delivery to bring infrastructure online faster, with clear ownership and reduced risk.

Lifecycle Integration

Our cross-functional approach embeds maintainability, compliance and readiness from feasibility through to sustainment.

Digital and Data-Driven

We apply AI-enabled tools, digital twins and integrated management systems to improve performance and accelerate assurance.

Regulatory and Risk Confidence

We navigate complex approvals and high-consequence risks with clarity across rail, aviation and maritime environments.

Operational Readiness

We support testing, human factors, training and change management to ensure assets are safe, usable and ready from day one.

Public and Commercial Outcomes

We focus on solutions that deliver lasting economic value, meet environmental goals and serve evolving community needs.

Trusted Where It Counts Most

We partner with transport agencies and infrastructure owners to deliver complex systems from concept to operation.


Our depth in regulated environments enables us to move fast, reduce risk and deliver what matters.

Rail Transit Systems
  • Define, trace and validate system and subsystem requirements from feasibility and concept design through to integration and operations
  • Deliver independent safety assessments and assurance for signalling, rolling stock, control and communications systems
  • Develop structured safety cases, conduct hazard analysis, SIL assessments and maintain compliance through robust VCRM frameworks
  • Manage technical interfaces, coordinate across disciplines and support system integration to de-risk delivery and enable acceptance

We help meet performance targets and maintain stakeholder confidence in environments where satisfying a wide range of authorities makes delivery a constant balancing act.

Aviation & Air Traffic Management
  • Development, review and uplift of management systems (including SMS and QMS) aligned with regulatory, operational and civil–military integration requirements
  • Integration of digital and remote air traffic technologies, including remote towers, net-zero technologies, surveillance, CNS/ATM systems and AAM platforms
  • Operational test and evaluation planning, conduct and reporting to validate capability against performance, suitability and effectiveness criteria
  • Regulatory navigation and assurance across CASA, FAA, EASA and international civil aviation standards to support certification and safe system acceptance

We enable safe and efficient adoption of new technologies that deliver measurable operational improvements, reduce compliance risk and unlock long-term commercial value in modern, net-zero aviation networks.

Civil Maritime Operations
  • Development and review of marine safety and environmental management systems aligned with ISM Code, IMDG and AMSA standards
  • Gap analysis and uplift of safety and risk systems, including bowtie analysis and risk-based control planning
  • Operational readiness and assurance for vessel operations, port movements, heavy lift cargo, offshore construction and crew management
  • Risk assessment, documentation and training frameworks tailored to improve compliance, reduce exposure and streamline safety management

We turn compliance into commercial advantage - reducing risk, lifting efficiency and protecting operational margins.

AI‑Enabled Safety, Quality, Security and Environment Compliance
  • Automated cross‑mapping of ISO standards, the ISM Code, aviation and related regulations to quickly identify gaps and reduce audit preparation time
  • Centralised digital management platforms with version control, automated workflows and AI compliance checkers to improve traceability and governance
  • Predictive analytics and model‑based safety tools to surface emerging risks and support behaviour‑based safety assessments
  • Training and ongoing support to ensure your teams can confidently interpret insights and maintain compliance

We equip organisations with the assurance that their workforce is compliant, capable and ready to perform under pressure.

Workforce Performance & Compliance
  • Design and implementation of integrated competency frameworks aligned with rail, aviation and maritime regulatory standards
  • Streamlined recording and Subject Matter Expert certification processes to support efficient skill development
  • Mental fitness programmes focused on resilience, engagement, wellbeing and leadership, guided by risk-based assessment and preventative intervention
  • Blended training and support initiatives that embed capability and wellbeing practices across all levels of the organisation

We have supported Defence and industry partners to advance UAS platforms through safety, test and certification - enabling their deployment in regulated and contested environments.

We equip organisations with the assurance that their people meet regulatory standards and are ready to perform in demanding environments.
