Projectus.

Purpose.

Best outcomes for Aotearoa, via the built environment.

Why it matters to us

Our natural and built surroundings profoundly impact us as individuals and communities. At Projectus, we understand the immense privilege and responsibility of shaping these environments.

Each project we undertake leaves a lasting impact on our people, our children, and our communities, crafting a legacy for future generations. As leaders in this field, we are committed to ensuring every project we deliver makes a positive impact, both now and for the generations to come.

Our strategic priorities

Three priorities guide how we work every day.

Redefine value

Leading through innovation, transformation, and service excellence, we are creating a more resilient and competitive business. Our team is also at the forefront of industry leadership, driving broader benefits for our suppliers, partners, and communities.

  • Service excellence focused on outcomes.
  • Build a strong and resilient business that manages risk effectively.
  • Wellbeing and health and safety back up everything we do.
  • Partner with organisations and peers to innovate and transform the built industry.

Prosper together

At our core, people drive our business. While we pursue collective goals, we also recognise individual ambitions, extending to all stakeholders and community groups impacted by our work.

  • Develop and inspire our people to thrive.
  • Partner with clients whose ambitions complement ours.
  • Encourage and actively facilitate a diverse and inclusive Projectus, and industry wide culture.
  • Empower our communities for success.

Build to live

The built environment is pivotal for a sustainable world. Despite the industry’s slow pace of adaptation, we are stepping up to the challenge, setting ambitious goals for ourselves, our clients and our partners.

  • Keep developing the expertise and leadership to lead the industry in sustainability and circular economy.
  • Procure and manage our resources responsibly.
  • Empower and motivate our clients to advance their carbon reduction goals.
  • Achieve our own net zero carbon goals.
  • Ensure projects yield a net biodiversity increase compared to pre-development levels.

Broader outcomes

Project delivery is an opportunity to offer more than just meeting operational needs and financial profits. As a dedicated industry leader, we prioritise creating lasting impacts that go beyond the usual, focusing on social, environmental, economic, and cultural outcomes.

Economic development

  • Partnering with likeminded individuals and organisations.
  • Procure locally with social responsibility and best for project outcomes.
  • Our “110% approach”: do best on every project, then plan and action to do 10% better next time.

Quality and resilience

  • Build cost-effective projects that withstand environmental challenges.
  • Deliver high-quality infrastructure suited for current and future generations.
  • Encourage and explore innovation in design and construction techniques.

Social outcomes

  • Grow our own diverse and inclusive workplace.
  • Provide attainable pathways into senior leadership positions.
  • Become an industry leader in providing extension pathways from trades into construction professional roles such as project management and quantity surveying.

Cultural engagement

  • Respect and preserve cultural heritage in construction practices.
  • Ensure meaningful engagement with local iwi and hapū in the planning stages of projects.
  • Keep developing and implementing our Te Ao Māori Project Delivery Framework.
  • Prioritise our Build to Live priority, so the natural environment thrives alongside the built one.

Sustainability and the circular economy

Sustainability is more than just green building — it’s about making sure every project we work on today stands strong and useful for tomorrow. We believe in using resources wisely and are focused on PRE-pare (prevent) rather than RE-pair (recover).

  • Plan sustainability goals at the project planning stage to guide all decision-making.
  • Cut down construction waste by getting smarter with how we plan and reuse materials.
  • Reduce energy use during construction with energy-saving equipment and better building practices.
  • Use native plants in our landscaping to keep local ecosystems thriving.
  • Put measures in place to keep the soil stable and waterways clean around our sites.
  • Focus on the uptake of recycled or reused materials, working with suppliers who share that focus.
