How Multiplex is Delivering Social Impact Alongside $1B+ in Construction
Multiplex Partners with Catchment to Build Impact Beyond Structures
We’re excited to officially announce that Multiplex has adopted Catchment as their enterprise-wide social procurement reporting tool, following a successful pilot program across multiple major projects.
As a leading global construction company with a long-standing commitment to building responsibly, Multiplex continues to demonstrate that delivering iconic infrastructure and driving meaningful community impact can go hand-in-hand.
A Shared Vision: Building with Purpose
Since 1962, Multiplex has helped shape cities across the world — but their mission goes far beyond delivering buildings. With a simple purpose “to construct a better future,” their focus on sustainable, inclusive development aligns perfectly with Catchment’s platform and philosophy.
Our collaboration is helping Multiplex:
- Streamline social procurement compliance across national operations.
- Capture and report key data on local employment, social enterprise spend, and community outcomes.
- Drive transparency and measurable social value for all stakeholders — from project teams to government and investors.
Spotlight: 435 Bourke Street – Leading the Way in Sustainable Construction
A standout example of our partnership is the groundbreaking development of 435 Bourke Street in Melbourne’s CBD - a $1 billion next-generation commercial tower being delivered by Multiplex for Cbus Property.
Designed to achieve Net Zero Carbon in operation, the tower features:
- A fully electric base building
- On-site renewable energy from an innovative solar skin façade
- A 45% reduction in embodied carbon throughout construction
Catchment is proud to support Multiplex in tracking and managing social procurement outcomes on this project — ensuring it delivers not only environmental sustainability, but also social inclusion and local community benefit.
Technology Empowering Better Building Outcomes
By integrating Catchment across its supply chain, Multiplex is taking a proactive approach to:
- Simplify subcontractor reporting processes
- Maintain compliance with government procurement frameworks
- Drive real-time insights to maximise local impact
This partnership is proof that digital tools can enable better infrastructure — both physically and socially.
Welcome Aboard, Multiplex
We’re thrilled to welcome Multiplex as a strategic partner and look forward to supporting their journey as a global leader in socially responsible construction.
Together, we’re building infrastructure that leaves a legacy — not just in skylines, but in communities.
