Planning & Procurement

services include:

Business Case Development & Management

A comprehensive infrastructure business case is a base line deliverable when embarking upon a project, not only for the client but for potential contractors, the public and all other stakeholders.

A well-considered business case will clearly outline the key objectives and goals of a project, and identify the key benefits for end users.

This will assist with achieving project funding and minimise lengthy timeframes for post-business case stakeholder consultation, documentation development and procurement.

Our team have experience in both preliminary business case and detailed business case development, for both private and public clients.

We are experienced in the alignment of public policy and business case development, using frameworks such as the Queensland Government Project Assessment Framework process.

Our team has consulted with a wide range of stakeholders to develop considered business case documentation that is reflective of the needs of our clients, end users and all stakeholders involved.

We can liaise with independent authorities for a review of a business case and prepare documentation for the Cabinet Budget Review Committee(CBRC).

‍

Procurement Strategy Development

We provide detailed procurement strategies to cater for public sector policies as well as best practice solutions for the private sector.

A sound procurement strategy will guide a project from early planning through to completion. We understand the nuances of delivering project outcomes while managing risk.

Our team can assess all options and deliver innovative strategies in line with procurement policies for both private and public sectors, that demonstrate value, fairness and probity.

This requires an understanding of risk allocation between parties, flexibility to develop scope to capture industry input and encouraging industry participation to generate competitive tension.

We can deliver successful strategies that achieve these outcomes while timing procurement activities relative to market sensitively - and encourage innovation throughout the process.

‍

Transaction & Commercial Management

We have the expertise in market engagement to provide tailored solutions in even the most challenging transacting environments to deliver successful projects.

Investment cycles produce periods of highs and lows in the construction industry. Currently, an un precedent public infrastructure spend has created extreme demand resulting in a challenging transacting environment for projects.

Our team has much expertise in the development and implementation of transaction management strategies to deliver optimum market engagement. We can also lead commercial negotiations and document finalisation to contract award.

Innovation and industry best practice in contracting models is key to delivering complex projects.

Our experience encompasses a wide range of contract models –including public private partnerships and collaborative contracts (dECI and interactive tendering) – to provide current, relevant and proven advice to our clients.
