INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE | E20 | Richard Stewart – Contracting to Consulting and Complex Rail Projects.

In this week’s episode I welcome Richard Stewart to the podcast. Richard is CEO of Infrastructure Nation, specialists in Project Management, Transport Advisory and much more. In this episode we talk about: - Richards career, from contractor to client in the UK, to John Holland in Australia and working on city shaping projects. - Richards experience of stepping out the corporate space to set up Infrastructure Nation. The challenges, the opportunities and the surprises along the way. - The complexities of developing and delivering major rail projects, why some blow out and the key elements of a successful project. - Forms of contract in major rail projects, the role of PPP’s and lessons to learn from Richards recent experience working on a collaborative contract in Canada. - Why Richard is excited about the pace of change in technology and innovation, and in seeing Infrastructure Nation playing an important role in delivering the great pipeline of projects we have ahead of us in Australia.
