Cross River Rail—technical advisor to Delivery Authority

Solution

Drawing on our extensive experience in sustainability on linear infrastructure, Losee Consulting is working closely with the DA to embed sustainability, manage major delivery partners and guide achievement of an ISCA program rating of ‘Excellent’.

So far, we have contributed the:

• Sustainability Guidance Plan
• Policies for sustainability and procurement
• Program Rating Approach (i.e. how individual project ratings combine and integrate for the overall rating)
• Base Case Framework
• Review of tenders for major delivery partners
• Climate Change Risk Assessment
• Program level credit submission material.

Working with the DA we have successfully established a sustainability program and are keeping it on track.
