Our Story
Building the future of infrastructure delivery
For Decisions with Consequence, You Want Specialised Intelligence
Akordi was born from a bold vision: that the industry's biggest challenges require decision intelligence – the strategic application of AI technology by people who truly understand construction.
We're an independent company of construction professionals who excel in AI, with strategic backing from one of the world's leading infrastructure delivery organisations, Laing O'Rourke. Founded in 2023, we help clients make smarter decisions across every project phase – from bidding through to post-completion optimisation. Operating across Australia, the UK, and the US, we focus on major infrastructure including transportation, utilities, and commercial developments.
We believe the future of infrastructure delivery lies not just in adopting new technology, but in how intelligently that technology is applied to solve real-world delivery challenges.
At Akordi, decision intelligence isn't just what we do – it's how we're reshaping what's possible in construction.
