Project Overview The City Renewal Authority (City Renewal) seeks to engage a qualified Head Contractor for the Garema Place Stage 2, City Walk West works. The contractor will carry out destructive and non-destructive site investigations, prepare for-construction documentation, and deliver the City Walk West landscape upgrades. The work will be delivered under a two-stage GC21 Two Phase Design and Construct contract. City Walk West is located at the western end of Garema Place. It is bounded by East Row and Mort Street to the west and central Garema Place to the east. The existing site includes pedestrian footpaths, vehicle access to Saraton Lane, at-grade parking, and public amenity, including outdoor dining used by local businesses and seating used by the general public. Refer to Image 1 for the site extent. SCOPE OF WORK Overview of Engagement The scope of work must be read in conjunction with all tender drawings and documentation. The Head Contractor will deliver all services required to develop the design, plan works, complete demolition and construction, commission assets, and obtain all authority and utility approvals.

A strong tender response is clear, compliant, and backed by evidence. These steps apply to most Australian and New Zealand public tenders.
Open the official listing and download the full tender pack. Note the response schedules, evaluation criteria, mandatory conditions, and the exact closing time and lodgement method.
Check licences, insurances, certifications, and any conformance requirements before you commit. A quick bid or no-bid decision saves days of wasted effort on a tender you cannot win.
Respond to each evaluation criterion directly and back your claims with concrete examples, referees, and past performance. Address the buyer’s stated need, not a generic capability statement.
Submit through the source portal well before the deadline. Late or incorrectly lodged bids are almost always rejected, so leave time for uploads, portal errors, and last-minute questions.
