About CanConstructNZ

Massey University’s School of Built Environment was awarded five years of MBIE Endeavour funding (commencing October 2020) to research and develop CanConstructNZ.

CanConstructNZ is designed as a long-term, continuously operating national mechanism that provides a shared, evidence-based understanding of New Zealand’s infrastructure pipeline, both committed and potential, alongside the construction sector’s capacity and capability to design and deliver that work.

The platform aims to function as a comprehensive decision-support tool, identifying immediate and long-term opportunities, constraints, and risks across the sector. It is intended to serve a broad range of stakeholders, including government agencies planning infrastructure programmes, as well as contractors, consultants, and suppliers seeking visibility of forward workloads and strategic alignment of their resources and investment decisions.

The concept aligns closely with the objectives of the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission and the Construction Sector Accord Transformation Plan, particularly the goal of establishing an enhanced and more transparent construction pipeline.
