Transport for NSW (Transport Infrastructure Projects) / Request for Information (RFI) for Culvert Supply - RFI.23.0000129348.1093

For the first time as part of a regional NSW state-wide strategic procurement initiative, we are reviewing our culvert supply requirements across all our locations in NSW.

TfNSW spends approximately AUD$3M per annum on Culvert Supply. As part of this initiative, a project team has been formed to conduct a state-wide review of all district culvert supply requirements.

Our aim is to maximise TfNSW’s position with suppliers by applying best practice procurement methodologies with the objective of developing the source(s) of supply that represent the lowest total cost across TfNSW.

The project is to include all Culvert Supply across all regions (including pipe culvert, box culverts and other associated products). The information gathered from the RFI will also indicate alternate products and reciprocal trade relationships.

NSW Regions: Far North Coast, Mid North Coast, New England, Central Coast, Hunter, Cumberland/Prospect, Nepean, Northern Sydney, Inner West, South East Sydney, South West Sydney, Central West, Orana/Far West, Riverina/Murray, Illawarra, Southern Highlands

Request for Proposals - An invitation for expressions of interest / seeking preliminary proposals. In many cases these may be used as a basis for shortlisting tenderers, along with other criteria such as expertise and experience. Prospective tenderers are initially evaluated for their proposal against the relevant selection criteria. A number of those who best meet the criteria are invited to tender. For complex or some other types of procurement, where the product or service outcomes are highly dependent on the content of the proposals received from Tenderers, the outcome may be negotiated.
