Open menu Our purpose We’re dedicated to making the world work better by bringing together people, data and technology to radically transform infrastructure. Breadcrumbs Home Our story Our purpose Designing, delivering and operating lived environments that work better for all We are challenging our industry. We are involving all stakeholders and communities. We are focused on diversity and inclusion. And we are building sustainability into every project that we work on. Because we want to radically transform infrastructure so people, business and communities thrive. THE WORLD IS CHANGING FAST… All around the world the ways we live and work, travel and socialise, connect and communicate are evolving rapidly. From climate change and population growth to technological innovation and digitisation, the lived environment is facing rapid change and unprecedented challenges. Infrastructure helps to create the lived environment – it shapes our lives in profound ways. It helps to define our quality of life, it drives community cohesion and often shapes the prosperity of nations. …BUT THERE ARE CHALLENGES Our sector works on things that really make a difference in people’s lives, but our productivity is behind other sectors. At a time when the rapid pace of technological innovation has been felt in our lives every day, the lived environment is being updated too slowly. New infrastructure is often stymied by delays and cost overruns caused by built-in inefficiencies that undermine public trust and confidence, and impact quality of life. We believe there is a better way. WE HAVE AN IMPORTANT ROLE … What we do helps to shape the lived environment for the future. We have a unique opportunity to ensure it works well for the communities it serves, so that people can live healthier, more prosperous and happier lives for generations to come. By harnessing the diversity of people and the power of data and technology, we believe we can help our clients to design, deliver and maintain infrastructure that helps the world to work better for all. Creating a world that works better means communities where people thrive. It means urban centres that are re-engineered for lower carbon living to protect future generations from the threat of climate change. It means transport networks that connect seamlessly to drive economic growth and improve quality of life across networks. ALL WORKING TO MAKE THE WORLD WORK BETTER FOR ALL… Our passion stems from knowing that our grandchildren will be driving along the roads and over the bridges we build; breathing cleaner air in the city centres we helped design and redesign. We listen, understand and connect our insights to create solutions. Whether that is creating new ways of doing things or reimagining what is already there to improve outcomes. We help to create and build today’s lived environment for tomorrow’s world.
