About us
Infrastructure WA (IWA) is a specialist state government agency providing independent, evidence-based advice to Government to shape Western Australia’s whole-of-economy long-term economic and infrastructure outcomes. Our collaborative team works at the forefront of strategic planning, economic development, investment prioritisation and reform, partnering with state agencies, government trading enterprises, industry, and the community to improve productivity, competitiveness, sustainability and liveability.
In 2026 IWA is evolving as it transitions to become the 2050 Commission - Western Australia’s new productivity commission. This exciting transition expands IWA’s role beyond infrastructure to include industry development, economic transformation and service improvement, with infrastructure remaining a critical lever among others.
Reporting directly to the Premier, the organisation provides independent advice in a complex and rapidly changing global environment. Our work supports Government to maximise public value and investment, lift living standards and strengthen public services by shaping a pipeline of action-oriented, high-impact policy initiatives, reform and major projects to inform Government decision‑making.
IWA will use its expanding expertise to deliver action-focused industry development action plans, inquiries and major infrastructure proposal assessment, supporting long‑term economic prosperity through improved productivity, economic transformation, and inclusive growth.
This is an organisation for people who think big, systematically, value rigorous analysis and are motivated to make a lasting contribution to Western Australia’s future.
Join us on this transformative journey and help shape outcomes that matter now and for generations to come.
