Accelerated Road Rehabilitation Program – Timber Bridge Program

Client: Department of Main Roads
Capital Cost: $126M
Role: Alliance Advisor, Risk Manager and Relationship Advisor

The project was unique for the State as it looked to package a large number of remote projects and delivered through an Alliance. The project was also unique in that the major areas of delivery were to be undertaken by organizations normally considered as subcontractors to such projects and that contractors in remote areas of Queensland were not mature in delivering projects of this magnitude.

CGI developed a procurement model to establish the Alliance. CGI provided commercial and relationship advice on selection of the Alliance partners. CGI developed and managed the selection process. CGI also advised on contract development, procurement of insurance and target cost development.

In supporting the Alliance develop their TOC, CGI filled the role of Project Manager, Risk Manager and TOC Manager up to financial close.
