ACHM supports Optus across a range of telecommunications infrastructure projects across Australia, helping ensure new towers, network upgrades and fibre expansions meet cultural heritage obligations while progressing efficiently through planning and construction.
As one of Australia’s major network operators, Optus delivers infrastructure in diverse landscapes, often within or near areas of cultural heritage sensitivity. ACHM provides the clarity, compliance assurance and on‑ground expertise needed to navigate these responsibilities with confidence.
Working closely with Traditional Owner groups, statutory authorities and project engineers, ACHM delivers practical heritage solutions tailored to the fast‑moving demands of the telecommunications sector. This includes early‑stage due diligence, cultural heritage risk assessments, CHMP’s, archaeological field services and ongoing advisory support to keep projects moving while maintaining full respect for cultural values.
Our partnership with Optus reflects ACHM’s reputation for providing responsive, technically robust and culturally informed guidance across large‑scale national programs. Through this work, we help Optus expand and upgrade critical communications infrastructure in a way that is responsible, compliant and aligned with the cultural heritage expectations of communities across Australia.
