Investment and Delivery plays critical roles in implementing systems that can scale and adapt to the global realities of climate change and digitalisation.
As our vehicles become more sustainable, existing government taxation/emission revenue streams will be altered. Any drop in funding has the potential to put pressure on future transport investments. And with new projects increasingly complex, involving inter-connected technology, safety standards, and environmental issues, the outcome could result in a disruption in the delivery model.
Funding is critical in managing project delivery in a timely manner and on budget. While supporting sustainability and low-carbon agenda, rapid development and accelerating societal change, all combine to create new risks and wide-ranging uncertainty. This panel will discuss the changing landscape of traditional project investment and delivery methods and the current and future challenges in delivering complex projects successfully.
