Road, Water, Sewerage & Civil Works

The BUS270 arrangement provides Queensland, Northern Territory and Tasmania councils and approved purchasers with access to a wide range of prequalified suppliers with the capacity to deliver civil construction projects across the states.

It provides a streamlined procurement process, allowing purchasers to obtain competitive pricing from competent, reliable suppliers through a select Request for Quote rather than an open tender for engagement of any value (including over $200k), resulting in significant time and cost savings.

The range of civil construction services are categorised below:

• Road Construction and Maintenance
• Road Resurfacing
• Guardrail and Road Safety Barriers
• Line Marking
• Traffic Management
• Pipework Installation
• Pipe Relining & Rehabilitation
• Water & Waste Treatment
• Marine
• General Civil Construction

Purchasers have a choice of Local Buy amended contractor engagement contracts, depending on their individual project requirements:

• Minor Works – Low Risk
• Minor Works – Medium Risk
• Minor Works – Medium Risk ‐ Design & Construct
• AS2124
• AS2124 ‐ Design & Construct
• AS4000
• AS4902

Purchasers maintain control of project documentation, can nominate sub-contractors (including council crews), obtain period pricing or obtain road materials (asphalt, bitumen) only.
