NXS Planning is an Infrastructure Planning consultancy established with the aim of transferring our expertise in the specialised field of infrastructure contributions onto our clients. We aim for clear and direct communication with our clients that allows them to make informed decisions regarding their infrastructure funding requirements. Our partners have years of infrastructure planning experience at both state and local government level, allowing us to impart our knowledge to all types of development stakeholders. 

• For councils and state governments, this means we can use our experience to provide infrastructure contributions consulting services for the preparation of contributions plans, policy documentation and infrastructure planning technical studies. Additionally, we can provide services to assist in the negotiation and preparation of complex Planning Agreements. 

• For developers, this means we can provide critical feasibility analysis services for major developments in addition to planning, negotiating and preparing Planning Agreements or Works In Kind Agreements (WIKAs) with Councils or DPIE. Our experience in working with local and state governments allows us to plan for the most efficient use of the infrastructure contributions system in New South Wales.  

• For planning consultants, this means we can provide specialist sub consultant services in the field of infrastructure contributions. Our company structure and adaptable scale ensure we have the flexibility to work with other planning consultants to fulfill an area of acute skill shortage.
