Procurement

Procuring Agency: Queensland Health
Successful Tenderer: John Holland
Procurement note:

The project is being procured as a part of the Queensland Government's Capacity Expansion Program (CEP). The CEP will deliver $9.8 billion worth of new and upgraded hospitals across 15 separate projects. CEP projects are being procured using a Pre-Qualified Panel model. Under the model, interested parties submit EOIs outlinining the list of projects or ‘bundles of projects’ they wish to participate in. Contractors successfully appointed to the panel will then be selected to participate in a Request for Tenders (RFT) phase for particular projects, or packages of projects.

The contract is being delivered through a Managing Contractor model, where John Holland will be required to deliver designs for the project by mid-2024 and must deliver a ‘value for money guaranteed construction price’, for the project prior to the main works construction phase.

PROJECT HISTORY

Jun 2022 The project was announced under Queensland's Capacity Expansion Program.
Oct 2022 Funding was confirmed for the project and the Queensland Government called for Expressions of Interest (EOIs) to join a prequalified panel to deliver Capacity Expansion Program projects.
May 2023 The Queensland Government awarded the managing contractor contract to deliver the project to John Holland.
Sep 2024 The project cost has increased from $530 million to $875 million following the design phase due to scope modifications, cost escalations and to account for complexity. The Government has stated the cost increases will be covered through the existing $11.2 billion Program allocation. This includes an additional $1 billion in "equity funding" allocated to the Program in the 2024-25 Queensland Budget.
Apr 2025 The Queensland Government released its Hospital Rescue Plan and response to the 42 recommendations made by the Independent Review of Queensland Health’s Capacity Expansion Program. The Plan states that the six projects awarded Stage Two contracts as part of the two-stage Managing Contractor model by the former Government late last year, including the Logan Hospital Expansion Stage Two, will continue as currently contracted.
