In this report, our specialists explore the challenges and opportunities ahead, proposing practical strategies to realise excellence and value for the Games and to empower Queensland for generations.
What’s inside
Market insights
There is a huge amount of work to be done across Queensland’s building and infrastructure sectors ahead of 2032.
Productivity and cost escalation will be key to whether this can be delivered, including whether best value for money outcomes are achieved.
Focus on venues
Everyone wants a world-class venue – but at what cost?
Sports venues are among the most scrutinised Olympic investments because of their size, visibility and costs.
Focus on infrastructure
It’s the supporting infrastructure – the roads, transport, utilities and public spaces – that will tie the Games together and get the city and region ready to welcome the world.
Could there be smarter delivery options that better balance time, cost and risk?
Focus on accommodation
Athletes’ villages, hotels and short-term housing sit at the intersection of public need, private opportunity and long-term legacy.
What are the strategies for accommodation success post-Games?
