REPORT
Following a report to the Infrastructure and Services Committee dated 31 March 2015, Council
staff prepared tender documentation for the Munna Point Bridge Rehabilitation (Design and
Construction).

The public tender was issued on 18 April 2015 through LG Tender Box as a design and
construction tender. The tender scope was based on a reference design prepared by local
consulting engineers Tod Consulting with specific performance outcomes including the
requirement for the rehabilitation to extend the bridge life by 50 years.

The tender documentation was downloaded over 100 times comprising a mixture of contractors,
consultants and individuals. As the works are highly specialised it was expected that the number
of submissions would be significantly lower.

Upon close of tenders on 12 June 2015, thirteen submissions were received including four firms
offering a submission based on the Principal supplied reference design and their own alternative
design.
