Suppliers in the Spotlight – Webinar 5

We feel it is high time to shine a light on the heroes along the supply chain who put their hearts and minds into supporting people, planet and the economy with their innovative products and sustainability services.

This is a bi-monthly supplier showcase hosted by the IS Council, with each edition featuring six unique suppliers.

Be sure to tune in if:
- you are a procurer, influencer or decision-maker seeking suppliers that are willing to go beyond business-as-usual
- you want to stay up-to-date with the latest products and services in the infrastructure sustainability space
- you are undertaking an IS Rating and looking for collaborative partners to accelerate your pathway to better outcomes for your project.

Delivered in a snappy 45 minute lunchtime session, you will hear a quick pitch from each presenter followed by a short Q&A. If you're unable to attend the live webinar please still register as each episode will be recorded and sent to you to view in your own time.

IS Ratings Case Study Webinar | Preston Level Crossing Removal Project & Unanderra and Towradgi Station Upgrade Projects

Join us at an upcoming IS Rating Case Study Webinar and hear from project teams across Australia and New Zealand as they share case studies and key learnings when undergoing an infrastructure sustainability rating.

During this webinar, you will hear from the ISC’s 2024 Sustainability Leadership – Outstanding Achievement Award winner, the Preston Level Crossing Removal Project and finalist in Excellence in Environmental and Social Outcomes, Unanderra and Towradgi Station Upgrade Projects.

Preston Level Crossing Removal Project

Multi-award winning Preston Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP) was completed in 2022 by North Western Program Alliance (NWPA). Preston LXRP exemplifies outstanding excellence in sustainable infrastructure. This complex rail project removed four level crossings, constructed two kilometres of elevated rail viaduct, two new stations and precincts, and extensive open spaces, converting a brownfield rail line into a green corridor for the community. Focused on community engagement, innovative design and environmental stewardship, Preston set a benchmark for sustainable rail infrastructure.

Unanderra and Towradgi Station Upgrade Projects

This presentation highlights the Unanderra and Towradgi Station Upgrade Projects in NSW, showcasing their significant achievements in environmental and social impact. With Australian-first innovations in renewable energy and low-carbon materials, these projects set high benchmarks for sustainable infrastructure; both achieving ISC v1.2 Leading ratings. The train stations were transformed into culturally meaningful spaces, resonating with local communities through the integration of Aboriginal cultural narratives and support for essential community initiatives. Degnan and Transport for NSW have delivered infrastructure that not only addresses practical accessibility needs but also enhances heritage preservation and cultural integration.

Our guests and experts "tell it like it is"—not only what worked well, but what didn't—the "lessons learned and tips for success". Participants will have the chance to join the discussion in these fully interactive webinars which present the unique opportunity to learn from the real-world application of IS Ratings.

If your team are presently in the throes of undertaking an IS Rating, are about to embark upon that journey, or certifying the sustainability of your project is under future consideration or mandate, be sure to attend this event!

We warmly invite all key stakeholders to join us for these highly informative web events. We also recommend, especially if you're unable to participate, that you still register to receive a copy of the recording after the event.

Annual General Meeting

Navigating Nature-Based Disclosures in the Infrastructure Sector Webinar

As ESG reporting requirements evolve, the focus is shifting from climate focus to broader, more complex disclosures. Although still voluntary, the TNFD (Taskforce for Nature-based Financial Disclosures) framework is set to follow the path of the now well-established TCFD (Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures). In this webinar, we will examine the TNFD framework and its significance for the infrastructure sector. Additionally, we will highlight how IS Ratings can help facilitate TNFD reporting, helping organisations align sustainability goals and regulatory requirements.
