PROJECTS & INDIGENOUS ENGAGEMENT ADVISORY

Structuring approvals for complex projects

SRI Corporate advises on the development and progression of large-scale resource, infrastructure, and energy projects that involve complex regulatory frameworks, stakeholder engagement, and Indigenous partnerships.

Our advisors bring extensive experience in progressing and de-risking major developments where Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), Native Title negotiations, environmental approvals, and community engagement are critical to project success.

 

We support project proponents across all stages of development, providing advisory services in stakeholder consultation, commercial negotiation, governance and risk management, and the structuring of Indigenous partnership and benefit-sharing arrangements.

 

Our team has contributed to the negotiation and implementation of some of Australia’s most significant Indigenous Land Use Agreements (ILUAs) and joint ventures with Indigenous groups, supporting the development of major mining, renewable energy, and oil and gas projects while delivering sustainable intergenerational outcomes for host communities. 

Through a pragmatic and respectful approach, we help organisations build enduring relationships with First Nations stakeholders, maintain social licence to operate, and deliver responsible project outcomes.
