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 3 consists of 1 Head Contract for EO Depot Edinburgh (SA) and EO Depot Stirling (WA). This invitation to Register Interest is for both EO Depot Edinburgh and EO Depot Stirling.
