PFAS and the future of semiconductor manufacturing
Semiconductor manufacturers are confronting a new generation of PFAS-related risks and regulatory uncertainty. Learn how forward-looking organizations are integrating adaptive planning and water stewardship along with infrastructure flexibility into future-ready manufacturing strategies.
Engineering for complexity: How the UK’s next decade of mega programs can create lasting social value
The U.K. is entering a decisive decade for major infrastructure delivery defined by scale, scrutiny and complexity. Drawing on experience across water, transport and national programs, Project Management Director James LeVesconte explores how integrated leadership, smarter consenting, early social value and strong data foundations turn complexity into durable public outcomes.
Program perspectives | What are leaders of the most successful programs doing that others aren't?
The human conditions for program performance are often treated as an outcome of good management rather than a prerequisite for it. Culture, alignment and adaptive leadership shape program delivery — and it matters now more than ever.
How does stakeholder engagement representation on program leadership reduce delivery risk?
Virginia Van der Meer brings community and partner insight into program and client leadership so teams can spot issues early and act while options are still open. On complex, high-profile work, meaningful stakeholder engagement protects credibility and drives steady delivery.
How can flood and coastal assets be optimized to deliver the best whole-life value?
Patricia Nick works at the intersection of program delivery, digital and strategic asset management within flood and coastal erosion risk management (FCERM). She treats asset data as a strategic capability, linking performance, cost, carbon and risk so clients can make better long-term investment decisions.
How do you find and deliver a safe, effective site for an offshore geological disposal facility?
Sarita Anston-Race turns complex subsurface uncertainty into clear, defensible decisions for clients. With nearly two decades of experience across offshore drilling, 3D geological modeling, petrophysics, geotechnics and hydrogeology, she supports site characterization programs that prioritize safety, protect budgets and deliver data insights for better outcomes.
Trifluoroacetic acid: Should water utilities in Australia and New Zealand be paying closer attention?
Trifluoroacetic acid is emerging as a new focus in the PFAS conversation. What do we know about its occurrence in Australian and New Zealand water systems — and what remains uncertain?
