J0056 EOLRP – ITR - HC-1 2003 (Construct Only): Work Package 1: EO Depot Darwin

The objective of the Explosive Ordnance Logistics Reform Program (EOLRP) Project is to enhance Defence capability by delivering improvements to Defence's Explosive Ordnance (EO) and non-explosive dangerous goods inventory management activities, including storage, processing, distribution and administration. To achieve this, Defence will deliver facilities and infrastructure (new construction and upgrades) across 12 Defence EO depot sites in support of a new network design (the EOLRP Works).

The EOLRP Works are being delivered in 3 Works Packages and multiple Head Contracts. Works Package 1 consists of 1 Head Contract for EO Depot Darwin, and 1 Head Contract for EO Depots Amberley and EO Depot Mount Stuart. This invitation to Register Interest is for EO Depot Darwin only.

EO Depot Darwin is managed by Thales Australia Limited, EO Services Contractor to Defence.Thales, as the site operators and holders of the Major Hazard Facility licences for each site, require an overarching Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) for each type of work that requires a permit.Each successful tenderer will be required to coordinate and interface with Thales.
