Procurement of Strategic Property Adviser

The Commonwealth of Australia, as represented by the Department of Finance (Finance), is seeking to procure a suitably experienced and capable Strategic Property Adviser (SPA) via this Request for Tender (RFT).

The SPA supports the Property Services Coordinated Procurement Arrangements (the Arrangements) (refer SON4115715). The Arrangements aim to achieve whole-of-government property related outcomes that maximise market benefits and deliver efficiencies.

The SPA will replace the current Strategic Property Adviser Services (refer CN3601806-A10).

The SPA develops and implements the annual Commonwealth Leasing Strategy and in doing so, will work closely with Finance and Property Service Providers to drive strategic change for Commonwealth office leasing. This includes developing strategies which aim to improve utilisation of surplus or underutilised leased space, deliver value for money outcomes and better pricing from landlords.

The SPA will elevate the impact and effectiveness of leasing transactions through the provision of accurate and timely data analysis related to the commercial office leasing market, the Commonwealth Property Portfolio and individual leasing transactions.
