Reimagining service delivery

About GHD We are using drones to streamline inspections of structures.

Leading-edge technologies

We are embracing the revolution in professional services and applying technology to reimagine service delivery and create value for clients and communities.

Innovation, fuelled by new technology, is changing how we deliver projects across all of our services. We’re automating tasks, developing new workflows, creating new tools for collecting and analysing data, inspecting structures with drones, using spatial technologies to improve decisionmaking and rapidly modelling large systems like water networks.

We are also partnering with technology providers to access a broad range of new tools, further improve our technical skills and reduce geographic barriers. For example, GHD people presented at Autodesk University events in Sydney, Australia and Las Vegas, USA.

To provide a common collaboration platform, we have progressively developed and rolled out iConnect, our new intranet. The system is accelerating knowledge sharing, thanks to an active newsfeed and discussion tools, knowledge communities, and extensive metadata for improved search and discoverability.

Introducing GHD Digital

This year, we launched GHD Digital to help clients deal with the transformational change associated with the sweeping application of digital technology in all businesses, and society as a whole.

We appointed an outstanding Global Digital Leader, Kumar Parakala, to lead the charge as we grow our services to help clients understand and prepare for digital transformation. We work with clients to help them make better decisions and deliver better services, by analysing and responding to insights from data and applying innovative technologies to solve their most complex problems.

GHD Digital integrates extensive capabilities that were already established within our business including location intelligence, digital modelling, virtual and augmented reality, innovation, and data analytics. This practice also extends our offering into new and complementary areas, such as digital strategy and transformation, and cyber security.
