EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
      •   This report provides a tender evaluation summary and recommendation for the tender award
          for the reconstruction of various stormwater Infrastructure sites which were impacted by the
          February/March 2022 Flood.
      •   In accordance with Council procurement policy and procedure, an Invitation to Tender (ITT)
          was initiated. The ITT identified that an industry briefing was required. This was considered
          a mandatory requirement to properly understand the project and to validate tender
          responses. The industry briefing attracted eight (8) attendees. At the response closing time
          on 29 June 2023, six (6) tender submissions were received, two (2) of which were assessed
          as non-conforming.
      •   The tender evaluation panel completed the evaluation process and considered the tender
          from SGQ Pty Ltd to be the most advantageous to Council, presenting the best value for
          money.
      •   The reconstruction is funded by Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA) using funds
          from both state and federal government. The site is an eligible structure under the
          Reconstruction of Essential Public Assets (REPA) and funded under the Disaster
          Reconstruction Funding Arrangements (DRFA) grant.
