The Department of Transport and Main Roads, North Coast Region, is piloting a new approach to constructability input through an early market engagement - Expression of Interest (EOI) for Bribie Island Rd Duplication Upgrade. This is the first time TMR will trial this type of early engagement and we are exploring new ways to collaborate with industry to strengthen the constructability of our designs.
This initiative follows The Collaborative Project’s recent 360-degree risk consultation with industry, which highlighted the benefits of involving contractors earlier in the design process to improve risk allocation, reduce assumptions, and support better project outcomes.
As part of this pilot, there will be an opportunity for participating contractors to provide feedback on this trial engagement process itself, helping shape how TMR may implement similar approaches in future projects.
This is a non-binding, pre-procurement engagement. Participation in this early engagement process does not provide any commercial or competitive advantage in any future procurement. All contractors who submit an EOI, regardless of whether they are shortlisted for this engagement, will be eligible to participate in the future construction tender for this project. Feedback gathered during this process will be de-identified and made available to all prospective tenderers to ensure a fair and transparent procurement process.
Suitably prequalified suppliers to levels Major R3, Financial F75, Minor A4 or higher are invited to respond for the North Coast Region, Bribie Island Rd, Hickey Road to King John Creek, Duplication upgrade – Constructability Input.
Prequalified suppliers are to email NC_Procurment_Inbox@tmr.qld.gov.au to be registered for access to the EOI brief which will be available on the Kiteworks platform.
