Victoria's 2026-27 capital program covers $131.6B+ across 139 major projects (each ≥ $100M TEI). This dashboard surfaces what each agency disclosed about scope, timeline, and accounting — we don't classify delivery risk ourselves.

    Four-year trend: TEI by status, with project count

    Stacked bars show TEI split by Existing / New / Completed each budget cycle. Line tracks the number of major projects (≥$100M). Source: DTF BP4 dashboard datasets, 2023-24 onwards.

        Methodology: how we read this dataset

        Framing. This is a navigability + disclosure-pattern surfacing dashboard. We surface what each agency disclosed in their own notes. We do not compute delivery-risk classifications. The dataset has no original-baseline columns (no "originally budgeted" or "originally promised completion"), so any "stalled" / "behind schedule" label would be inferred rather than measured. We chose not to do that.

        Tags. Three disclosure tags are extracted from the notes column via direct-phrase keyword matching with proximity guards:

        • Agency note: ETA revised — note explicitly mentions a completion date revision, deferral, or rescheduling with a quarter or year token.
        • Agency note: reclassified — note explicitly mentions reclassification (operating ↔ capital), machinery of government, or transfer between portfolios.
        • Commercial-in-confidence — note states the value is withheld for commercial-in-confidence reasons.

        Every tag is paired with the agency's source sentence (hover the tag chip to see it). We never invent a tag — if the agency didn't say it, we don't show it.

        TBC values. 6 projects have "tbc" total estimated investment, mostly pre-procurement or commercial-in-confidence. They are listed inline with a "Value withheld" label and excluded from total-investment sums (which is why the total reads "$131.6B+" — a lower bound). They are included in project-count aggregates.

        Numbers shown as fact, not judgment. Spent and remaining are shown as the agency reported them. We don't compute a sunk-cost ratio threshold or a risk traffic light. Read them as raw position, not velocity.

        Glossary

        TEI (Total Estimated Investment)
        The total cost the government has committed to deliver this project, in nominal Australian dollars. Not adjusted for inflation.
        Fiscal year and quarters
        Victoria's financial year runs 1 July to 30 June. "Q4 2027-28" means the last quarter of fiscal year 2027-28 — i.e. April to June 2028. This is different from calendar quarters. Use it to interpret every completion date on this page.
        Project status
        Existing — approved in a previous budget, carrying forward this cycle.
        New — first appearance in this budget paper (announced this cycle).
        Completed — work is finished or scheduled to finish within this budget cycle.
        Value withheld / Commercial-in-confidence
        The agency has not published the project's dollar figure, usually because procurement is mid-way (commercial sensitivity), or the figure is still being confirmed. The project is otherwise tracked normally — only the TEI is held back.
        Spent (to 30 June 2025)
        Funds actually disbursed by the end of the previous fiscal year. This is not the same as "completion percentage" — early-stage projects can be a low % spent without being behind, and late-stage projects can be high % spent while still requiring time to finish.
        Remaining
        Budgeted outlay still to be spent. Zero means the project has used its full allocation; high remaining is normal for projects still mid-delivery.
        Sector vs Entity
        Sector = broad portfolio (Transport, Health and human services, Education and training, etc.). One of eight.
        Entity = the specific government agency delivering the project (e.g. Department of Transport and Planning, Victorian Rail Track).
