Details

The Queensland government Less Landfill, More Recycling 2035: Queensland Waste Strategy identifies investing in modern infrastructure as a priority. The new Waste Strategy is backed by investment of $487 million over five years through the Waste Reduction and Recycling Activation Fund. However, investment in infrastructure requires not just State government investment, but local, federal and private sector investment as well.

A key action of the Waste Strategy is to develop a statewide waste and recycling infrastructure plan that identifies current and future material flows, infrastructure capacity and gaps, facility locations, supply chain options, land use planning considerations and priority investment opportunities.

In collaboration with the Department, the supplier will produce two complementary outputs: a Statewide Waste and Recycling Infrastructure Roadmap and a supporting Investment Prospectus. Together, these outputs will provide a contemporary, evidence-based framework to guide decision-making on priority waste streams, recycling and resource recovery infrastructure to 2035 and beyond and help identify key infrastructure needs and costed pathways to progress towards the targets in the Waste Strategy.

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.
