Lendlease, the globally integrated real estate group, and Optus have signed a new multi-year technology partnership.
The latest partnership between both companies comes after Lendlease partnered with Singtel in 2022 to redevelop its Singapore headquarters into a $3 billion work-class sustainable workplace featuring the latest smart building and digital technologies.
This time, the partnership will see Lendlease transitioning its existing mobile and data services to Optus. Optus will also partner with Lendlease to roll out the latter’s property insights tool, Podium Property Insights (PPI), starting with the telco’s new state-of-the-art Adelaide office.
Both parties are also looking out for other opportunities to collaborate.
“This strategic partnership between Lendlease and Optus will create value for both our people, and those who live, work and play in our precincts. The collaboration supports our vision to be a digitally led company, delivering on a mobile-first approach for our people who’ll benefit from the new Optus infrastructure. As the partnership progresses, Optus will utilise our PPI platform to help more effectively optimise its office space,” says Bill Ruh, CEO, Lendlease Digital.
