Councils are being asked to deliver more infrastructure, faster – with less. But despite increased consultant spend, governance frameworks, and tool adoption, many Capital Expenditure (CapEx) programmes are slipping on time, cost, and quality outcomes.
In this webinar, Rob Maszkowski from Touchstone exposes the quiet crisis affecting CapEx delivery: the Integration Gap – a hidden misalignment of people, processes, and systems that derails performance. You’ll learn how forward-thinking councils are overcoming this with a smarter delivery model that lifts internal capability, reduces dependency on consultants, and improves outcomes – even during tough economic times.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why more governance isn’t improving delivery performance
- What the Integration Gap is and how it undermines outcomes
- How to improve time, cost, and quality without increasing spend
- How councils like HBRC have applied this model at scale
Who Should Attend:
- Infrastructure PMs
- Engineering Leaders
- PMO Managers
- Governance and Risk Owners from NZ Local and Regional Councils
