Integrating assets into portfolio management

Infrastructure Australia has already identified the need for governments to make better use of existing assets rather than simply funding additional supply. With constrained capital expenditure, now is the time to maximise the use of existing assets and optimise expenditure across asset portfolios.

From 2012 to 2022, Australia's infrastructure boom saw significant capital investment, with public funding reaching approximately $470 billion, according to Infrastructure Partnerships Australia (IPA). In 2024, with declining construction productivity, higher construction costs and increased interest rates, we are now seeing a reduction of capital expenditure and increased focus onto the cost of living.
