The Power of Risk Culture: Why People Matter as Much as Processes in Project Management Uncertainty is a constant in complex engineering and infrastructure projects. And while detailed frameworks and processes are crucial for managing this uncertainty, they are only a part of the bigger picture. What often determines whether risks are contained or escalate […]

How Commercial Strategy Shapes Project Outcomes in Australia Engineering excellence alone cannot guarantee the success of infrastructure projects. True success depends on how well each project integrates commercial thinking into its planning and delivery. A sound commercial strategy in construction provides the framework for delivering predictable, measurable results. As the Australian government commits billions to […]

Bridging the Gap Between Design and Delivery in Construction Projects Across Australia, design-delivery disconnects continue to drive cost overruns and project delays. For project owners and government bodies, this gap represents one of the greatest sources of uncertainty in infrastructure delivery. In this blog, KPMC outlines the key causes of the design-delivery gap and the […]

How Early Risk Identification Saves Millions in Infrastructure Delivery In Australia, 90% of construction projects experience cost overruns, averaging 28% above initial estimates. Infrastructure projects fail because risks are discovered too late. When issues surface during delivery rather than during design, they extend schedules and erode stakeholder confidence. For complex infrastructure, where every hour of […]
