1) The request for proposal is anticipated to be issued to the shortlisted respondents in mid-May 2023. Completion of this phase of the process is expected in quarter four of 2023.
2) The three companies that responded to the Expression of Interest (EOI) are not businesses located in Geraldton or the Mid-West region. Local businesses may not have responded for reasons applicable to their own circumstances, including capacity and capability for a complex project of this nature. However, as the project progresses, it is expected that there will be further opportunities for local businesses to respond to tender requests from the managing contractor for components of the project.
3) The submissions received do not include cost. Cost is not one of the EOI criteria.
4) The start of construction will be known on award of contract.
5) The targeted completion date for the main construction works will be known on award of contract.
