CICA highlighting crane operations at Converge 2025


Crane operations are set to be in the spotlight at Converge 2025, with the Crane Industry Council of Australia (CICA) joining the event as an Association Partner.

As the peak body for the crane industry, CICA drives safety, efficiency and innovation in crane operations. Through safety and competency programs – CraneSafe, CrewSafe and StartSafe – along with technical guidance and advocacy, CICA ensures operators and businesses uphold the highest industry standards. The organisation also works closely with government and regulatory bodies to shape policies that enhance safety and productivity across the sector.

Brandon Hitch, chief executive officer of CICA, sees Converge 2025 as an opportunity to connect with the wider construction and infrastructure industry.

“By facilitating networking opportunities and industry collaboration, CICA helps crane and construction businesses access the latest technology, best practices and workforce development initiatives,” says Hitch.

“The crane sector plays a huge role in major projects across Australia, so we want to be at the table, ensuring that lifting operations are front and centre in industry discussions.

“Partnering with Converge 2025 allows us to share our expertise, highlight the importance of safety and innovation, and work alongside other key players to keep improving how we build and develop our cities and infrastructure.”

For CICA, Converge 2025 is about strengthening industry connections – bringing crane operators, construction companies and government bodies together to work more effectively.

“We also want to see better safety and regulation, pushing for improvements in safety standards and smarter regulations that support the industry,” says Hitch.

“Investment in skills and training is equally important, making sure we’re developing the next generation of skilled crane operators.

“Innovation will be a central focus, with new technology and lifting solutions set to shape safer and more efficient worksites.”

Converge 2025 will showcase these priorities through live demonstrations, equipment displays and conference discussions. Designed for municipal works, commercial and civil construction, the event will bring together subcontractors, project engineers, council fleet managers, major contractors, policymakers, and industry leaders to address challenges and explore new solutions.

Join CICA and other industry leaders at Converge 2025 to help shape the future of construction. For more details, visit convergeexpo.com.au
