We research important infrastructure issues, advise on policy, provide expert project support, and share data on both upcoming projects and infrastructure performance.

Our work
Mahere Tūāhanga ā-Motu

We're working on a National Infrastructure Plan that will help guide decision-making by both central and local government and give the infrastructure industry more confidence to invest in the people, technology and equipment they need to build more efficiently.

We're here to transform infrastructure for all New Zealanders. By doing so our goal is to lift the economic performance of Aotearoa and improve the wellbeing of all New Zealanders.

Desert Road

The estate managed by the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) spans the length of New Zealand. It covers 80,000 hectares of land, has over 7,000 buildings and includes every type of infrastructure across its camps and bases except for railway lines – and it used to have those.

With responsibility for such a range of infrastructure it’s no surprise that NZDF made multiple submissions for the first round of the IPP, six of which were endorsed. Throughout the application process, NZDF saw the value in getting feedback on infrastructure projects to improve their process for selecting what to build and where, and showing decision-makers that a proposal as part of the IPP is a priority for New Zealand.

In this episode of Infrastructure for a better future, Nadine Dodge, Director – Infrastructure Priorities and Evaluation at Te Waihanga, speaks to Phil Gurnsey, General Manager Estate Strategy at NZDF, about their experiences with the IPP.
