Social infrastructure

Infrata provides technical and ESG advisory services on projects across the social infrastructure asset class.

Our Technical, Operational, and ESG teams bring decades of experience in the development, financing, and management of social infrastructure projects across diverse geographies and delivery models. We have supported multiple Lenders and Investors across medical, education and corrections facilities.

Our participation in both greenfield and brownfield projects across the globe enables us to provide a holistic, lifecycle-driven perspective—supporting everything from project design and construction oversight through to operational performance and long-term asset management. Our specialists excel in demand analysis, facility performance benchmarking, and cost modelling tailored to the unique requirements of essential public services.

Infrata specializes in supporting critical decision-making in post-transaction environments, including asset sales and acquisitions, re-evaluating rehabilitation and maintenance strategies, and identifying pathways to maximize long-term asset value. Our approach ensures that social infrastructure assets remain resilient, sustainable, and capable of delivering high-quality outcomes for the communities they serve.

Our Approach

We’ve worked on a broad spectrum of large-scale social projects, including hospitals, student accommodation, schools, prisons and courthouses.

Our team leverages its experience across hundreds of social infrastructure deals in Europe, the Middle East, North America and Latin America to advise lenders and investors on risks and opportunities from development through to operations and handback.

Public and private partnerships

Our extensive experience with P3 and the original UK PFI schemes means we are well placed to support any social infrastructure P3 financing or acquisition.

We understand what best practice looks like in terms of risk transfer and delivery. Our extensive benchmarks for facilities management requirements, operating costs and renewal cycles underpin our reports and advice.
