Government and infrastructure
Engineering for public infrastructure: roads and drainage, flood restoration and mitigation, landfill and waste facilities, and the design review and certification that public assets require.
Projects
- ProjectFlood restoration of a regional road network, Isaac regionA $15M programme of more than 1,500 flood repair works, including 15 reinforced-concrete floodways designed to Department of Transport and Main Roads standards
- ProjectFlood mitigation works, Northern Queensland townshipLevee system, pump stations and floodway upgrades giving critical township infrastructure Q100 flood protection
- ProjectRegional road upgrade, Western QueenslandReconstruction of a 45 km corridor with geometric design, drainage, pavement rehabilitation and flood-immunity upgrades
- ProjectLandfill rehabilitation programme, Gold CoastAn integrated 30-year capping, rehabilitation and development programme built on digital landform models
- ProjectLandfill leachate tank pad, BowenCivil works for a 12 ML leachate tank pad, administered to practical completion with no liquidated damages
What this sector usually needs
Councils, the Department of Transport and Main Roads, state agencies and the contractors delivering their infrastructure.
- Road, drainage and flood mitigation design for local and regional networks.
- Landfill, leachate and waste-facility engineering.
- Independent design review and RPEQ certification.
- Engineering support for programme delivery, including tracking, reporting and contract administration.
What to expect
Each commission names the registered engineers responsible for the design, review or certification.
Programme tracking, reporting and contract administration are delivered alongside the engineering where the asset owner needs them.
How the work is commissioned
Public buyers procure through supplier registration, panels and direct engagement for smaller scopes.
