TransGrid / Substation Panel - SP1-12

The Substation Delivery Panel is being established to address TransGrid’s current delivery issues and objectives for the future. The Panel will allow for a set of pre-qualified companies to bid for the majority of substation construction and augmentation work within TransGrid’s approved capital program.

 

While TransGrid cannot warrant that any panellist will receive a certain volume of work under this agreement, it can advise that the Panel will consist of only three members.

 

The Panel will have a three-year term, though TransGrid will have the option to extend the Panel arrangement for up to a further two years at its discretion. Works Packages awarded under the Panel will survive its term.

 

The Panel will allow for multiple delivery strategies, depending on project type and need.
