Unpacking the Whole of Life Economics Behind Great Aquatic Projects
About the webinar
Water is increasingly being specified in capital works projects. Yet many design decisions are still being made without a clear view of long-term commercial implications.
Early conversations tend to focus heavily on design ambition and capital expenditure, while operational realities — energy use, maintenance, staffing, plant performance and lifecycle cost — remain unclear, underestimated or introduced too late to meaningfully influence the brief.
Getting Beyond the Budget, unpacks the commercial realities behind aquatic infrastructure and how to close the gap between a great design conversation and a project that gets approved, funded and stays operational.
Included with the webinar are key resources: a practical guide for early-stage projects, the session slides and the session’s recording
