Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC) IS Ratings for infrastructure projects is Australia and New Zealand’s only comprehensive rating system for evaluating economic, social and environmental performance of infrastructure across the planning, design, construction and operational phases of infrastructure assets. The IS Ratings is suitable for all infrastructure types including road, water, rail, energy, airport, port and social infrastructure such as parks and public facilities.

• IS Essentials – for smaller projects $5m – $100m – IS Essentials is the ISC’s first digital rating tool, using the IS Ratings Portal. The portal covers most aspects of doing a rating including Materiality Assessment, Design and As-Built credits and managing evidence. Note: there is no reward for partial completion.
• IS Planning – A world-first-of-its-kind, the Infrastructure Sustainability Council (ISC) v2.1 Planning Rating offers a framework for embedding sustainability into an asset at its earliest considerations and provides the benchmarks and assurances needed to implement sustainability successfully. By taking into account the whole-of-life impacts of decisions made in the Planning phase, sustainability outcomes can be maximised in the design, construction and operational phases. Implementing sustainability is set to change the way decision makers, asset owners, investors, and delivery authorities approach infrastructure planning and the IS Planning Rating tool assists the thinking process and enables quantification.
