Details

Seqwater invites Expression of Interest (EOI) from suitably qualified and experienced suppliers for the establishment of its Engineering & Technical Services Panel(s).

The proposed arrangements comprise two panels:

Primary Panel: Multidisciplinary engineering and consultancy services supporting the planning, design and delivery of water infrastructure projects, including dams, weirs, networks and water treatment assets.

Niche Panel: Specialist technical and advisory services across catchments, modelling and pipeline protection, and discipline-specific engineering and consultancy services.

The panels will support Seqwater's ongoing operational requirements and significant capital investment program across Southeast Queensland.

Respondents may nominate for either or both panels and one or multiple service categories, subject to meeting the applicable mandatory requirements.

Background information / Compatibility requirements

Seqwater is undertaking its largest capital investment program to date, focused on improving dam safety, securing long term water supply reliability and sustaining critical water infrastructure to meet the needs of South East Queensland's growing population.

Further information on Seqwater's forward capital works program, including indicative project timing and delivery opportunities, is available through the Capital Market Briefing.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this water & environment opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
