Resilient infrastructure

Outdated infrastructure and growing demands are testing the resilience of our societies. To close the gap, we need low-carbon, future-ready systems that not only connect people and goods, but also protect communities, strengthen economies, and support long-term prosperity.

Designing infrastructure that strengthens society

Infrastructure shapes the backbone of resilient and equitable societies, underpinning economic growth and social cohesion. In a world facing rising climate pressures, shifting energy demands, and geo political uncertainty, resilient systems and reliable transport are vital for keeping societies connected, productive, and secure.

To close the gap between today’s challenges and tomorrow’s needs, we must design and deliver infrastructure that is resilient, inclusive, and future-fit. From high-speed rail that boosts regional economies to low-carbon transport networks that cut emissions and improve air quality, well-planned infrastructure drives long-term prosperity.

Bridges, tunnels, ports, and transit hubs also play a vital role, strengthening supply chains, expanding opportunities, and knitting regions and nations closer together.

Let’s create infrastructure that stands strong and brings people together.

A new way to build: Alliance contracting enables smarter German infrastructure

When it comes to delivering complex infrastructure, the model matters as much as the mission. That’s why a new rail project in northern Germany is not only important for the country’s connectivity — it’s also a breakthrough in how we collaborate, deliver, and drive value.

Designing with purpose: How the Carbon Management Framework empowers engineers

Carbon is a growing priority in infrastructure development — but clear guidance is often missing. The Carbon Management Framework helps engineers turn ambition into action with a practical, structured approach.

Alliance infrastructure project delivery model

In early 2017, commuters in Helsinki were promised a new light rail line connecting the eastern and western suburbs. Large-scale transport projects are rarely delivered on time or ahead of schedule. Yet Light Rail Line 15 not only opened 10 months early but also close to 10% below budget. The secret? A procurement model that is turning traditional contracting on its head: the Alliance Model.
