The NZ Transport Agency engages in integrated transport planning at national, regional and local levels in partnership with local government, other central government organisations and the private sector to maximise transport investment outcomes across the network. By working with transport decision makers early in the strategy-setting and planning processes, we have the best opportunity to negotiate investment proposals that achieve quantifiable outcomes and are based on sound assumptions.

It emphasizes, as detailed in the Digital Engineering Framework.docx document, creating rich, validated as-built data rather than relying on red-pen markups, with a focus on monthly updates throughout the construction lifecycle
Kiwi RailWatercare (New Zealand) implements Building Information Modelling (BIM) to digitize asset management, using 3D models, data exchange requirements (EIR), and, from 2018, an agile, strategic transformation program. This approach improves infrastructure investment, enhances facility management, and aids in disaster preparedness. Key benefits include cost savings, reduced risk, and improved efficiency
WatercareFew things have as much potential to improve the performance of New Zealand’s building, construction and asset operation sectors as building information modelling (BIM). An investigation conducted by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) highlights BIM as the only improvement initiative likely to deliver a step-change, rather than an incremental gain in productivity.
