Who we help
Forecaz serves a diverse ecosystem of planning and infrastructure professionals across all tiers of government and the utility sector in Australia.
The Forecaz platform bridges the gap between high-level growth policy and the practical realities of development at the lot and network level. By connecting population and land-use forecasts to infrastructure demand, Forecaz equips planners, analysts, and decision-makers with evidence-based insights that improve coordination, justify investment, and accelerate better planning outcomes.
LOCAL & STATE GOVERNMENTS
Local and state governments use Forecaz to break the deadlock between ambitious growth targets and constrained infrastructure budgets.
The Forecaz platform lets councils replace static “theoretical capacity” with realistic, AI-driven forecasts that can be run and maintained by existing staff.
With Forecaz, Councils and Government agencies can:
-
Produce evidence-based growth and infrastructure forecasts in-house
-
Bridge the gap between zoning intent and real development outcomes
-
Support housing targets, LGIP updates, and funding cases with defensible data
WATER UTILITIES
Water and wastewater utilities rely on Forecaz to calibrate long-term network planning with real-world behaviour rather than engineering assumptions.
By blending de-identified billing data, transient loads, and development propensity, utilities get precise, defensible demand forecasts that protect both service quality and capital budgets.
With Forecaz, Water Utilities can:
-
Calibrate baseline demand using actual customer consumption
-
Capture tourist and transient “invisible” demand to avoid peak bottlenecks
-
Align CAPEX timing with the parcels and years that actually trigger upgrades
RESEARCH PARTNERS
Universities and research institutes use Forecaz as an applied urban intelligence lab, connecting theory with the realities of industry data and decision-making.
The Forecaz platform supports teaching, experimentation, and validation of Bayesian Network models against real urban growth patterns.
With Forecaz, Research Partners can:
-
Test academic growth and propensity models on structured, real-world datasets
-
Give students hands-on experience with industry-standard PlanTech and AI tools
-
Increase research impact through partnerships with councils and utilities
STRATEGIC URBAN PLANNERS
Strategic urban planners use Forecaz to turn policy concepts into spatially and numerically defensible scenarios.
They can test zoning, density, and infrastructure strategies at the property level and clearly communicate trade-offs to executives, councillors, and the community.
With Forecaz, Urban Planners can:
Build and compare multiple growth scenarios quickly
-
Connect policy changes to visible spatial outcomes and service demand
-
Support land supply, housing strategies, and regional plans with transparent evidence
INFRASTRUCTURE & ASSET PLANNERS
Infrastructure and asset planners depend on Forecaz to translate land-use and demographic forecasts into clear, location-specific network demand over time.
This helps them stage capital programs with confidence and coordinate decisions across internal teams.
With Forecaz, Infrastructure & Asset Planners can:
-
Identify exactly when and where networks will hit thresholds
-
Prioritise and justify capital works using robust, scenario-tested demand
-
Improve cross-department alignment by working from a shared growth model
OTHER ROLES WE WORK WITH
Beyond planners and asset teams, Forecaz supports a wider ecosystem of professionals who rely on consistent, trusted growth and infrastructure data, these include:
-
Economic development officers
-
GIS specialists
-
Policy analysts
-
Finance teams
How these roles benefit:
All of these roles benefit from having a single source of truth that streamlines reporting, collaboration, and strategic decision-making. With Forecaz, they can:
-
Centralise spatial, demographic, and infrastructure data in one environment
-
Accelerate cross-team workflows for reports, grants, and business cases
-
Improve transparency and credibility in public communication and governance
