The planning and development process in Victoria continues to face significant bottlenecks and challenges for both public and private sector participants. By streamlining workflows, reducing manual processes, and improving decision-making, AI has the potential to free up time for practitioners to focus on higher-value, strategic work.

The Australasia Property Advisory Association, in partnership with Spero-ai , is exploring how AI can be effectively applied within the Victorian planning system. James Mant (Co-Founder of Spero-AI) and Anthony Jansen (Executive Committee Board Member at APAA) will explore:

·       The need for the development approvals system to adopt more practical, shared solutions to address poor inputs, delay, duplication and unnecessary friction

·       How AI should focus on real workflow problems and practical impactful tools, not abstract use cases

·      The importance of collaboraton between technology providers, peak bodeis, industry and government in developing solutions

·       The importance of trust in technology through security, accuracy, transparency and accountability, but also through true collaboration.

·       Developing a collaborative pilot to test and refine practical solutions that save time and create value across the approvals process for all parties.
