As part of our ongoing commitment to strong governance and responsible digital transformation, we have formally commenced our journey toward ISO 27001 certification — the globally recognised standard for Information Security Management.
This strategic initiative reflects our determination to protect information assets across all facets of our operations — extending beyond IT to include project data, client information, and sensitive documentation. It is a key pillar in ensuring that information security is embedded within our broader ESG responsibilities.
Why ISO 27001 Matters
ISO 27001 certification will:
-
Strengthen our competitive edge in securing and delivering complex, high-trust infrastructure projects.
-
Demonstrate to stakeholders our commitment to rigorous information security standards.
-
Safeguard the integrity and resilience of our operations across both field and office environments.
Embedding Information Security into Our Governance Framework
The programme is being rolled out initially across our Australian business, with integration into core processes and ways of working. Following its successful implementation, it will be extended to our operations in other regions.
To support this transformation:
-
A comprehensive Information Security Policy has been finalised and is now available via MMS, also displayed across key sites and offices.
-
A dedicated Information Security Working Group is being established to drive programme delivery and engagement.
Through this initiative, McConnell Dowell is reinforcing its governance foundation — ensuring our systems, people, and practices meet the highest standards of information security while supporting long-term resilience and stakeholder trust.
