Building Fit Out Services Panel

1. The Public Transport Authority (PTA) carries out routine building maintenance to ensure the longevity of its assets.

   The Network and Infrastructure Division (N&I) allocates a significant portion of its operating budget to the building maintenance requirements of the network. These requirements encompass a variety of trades and tasks that are required on a regular basis and can range from small once-off activities such as repairing a door, to large projects such as office modifications.

   The scope of this Contract includes internal office upgrades to the Public Transport Centre and internal office refurbishments of other PTA owned buildings, e.g. Guildford Training School, Perth Station, etc.

   The PTA is seeking to establish a Panel Contract (Panel) for these services with a maximum of six contractors to be selected for the Panel. The initial contract period will be for three (3) years. The PTA will have an option to extend the contract for an additional period of two (2) years, to a maximum contract term of five (5) years.

   In addition to establishing a Panel through this Tender, the PTA is seeking to award Contracts for two immediate projects at the same time (Projects 1 and 2).
