[INSERT: Your company/consortium name] is pleased to submit this tender for the Mutitjulu Essential Services and Renewables Project. Our team brings together [INSERT: Brief description of consortium structure if applicable, e.g. "a joint venture between [Company A] and [Indigenous Partner]"] with demonstrated experience delivering essential services infrastructure and renewable energy systems in remote Indigenous communities across Northern Australia.

We recognise this project presents unique challenges that require a specialist approach. The Mutitjulu community of approximately 296 Anangu residents relies entirely on the infrastructure being replaced, requiring careful staging to maintain service continuity. The site's location within the World Heritage-listed Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park demands rigorous environmental and cultural protocols. [SUGGESTED: The integration of a 1MW solar array and 3MW.hr battery system with existing diesel generation requires sophisticated design to achieve the 80%+ renewable fraction target while maintaining grid stability - emphasise integrated approach].

Our approach to this project is founded on three principles:

Integrated Delivery: We will deliver Package A (Essential Services) and Package B (Renewables) as a coordinated program, recognising that the new electrical distribution network must be designed to accommodate the renewable energy system from the outset. [INSERT: Your Project Director name] will provide single-point accountability for both packages.

Cultural Partnership: Meaningful engagement with the Mutitjulu community and Traditional Owners is not an add-on to our delivery model - it is central to it. Our Community Liaison Officer, [INSERT: CLO name], is conversant in Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara and will be embedded in the project team from mobilisation through to handover. [INSERT: If you have an Indigenous business partner, describe the partnership here].

Proven Remote Delivery Capability: Our team has delivered [INSERT: $X million] of infrastructure projects in remote Australian communities, including [INSERT: 2-3 comparable project names and locations]. We understand the logistics, supply chain, and workforce challenges of operating 450km from Alice Springs.

We confirm our acceptance of the Draft Agreement terms and our commitment to work collaboratively with the Director of National Parks to deliver infrastructure that serves the Mutitjulu community for decades to come.

High Voltage Ring Main

We will construct the 11kV high voltage ring main in accordance with the Director-provided IFC drawings and Power Water Corporation standards. Our methodology employs open-cut trenching using a tracked excavator with rock-breaking capability, essential given the variable soil conditions observed during the mandatory site visit. Trench depth will maintain minimum 750mm cover in trafficable areas and 600mm in non-trafficable areas.

Cable installation will utilise [INSERT: Your cable specification, e.g. "3-core 95mm² XLPE aluminium conductor"] rated for the Central Australian temperature extremes encountered at Mutitjulu. All HV joints will be prefabricated cold-shrink type to minimise on-site installation time and ensure consistent quality. Our electrical supervisor, [INSERT: Name], has overseen HV cable installation on [INSERT: Number] remote community projects including [INSERT: Project name].

Pad-Mount Substations

The two 500kVA pad-mount substations will be installed on reinforced concrete plinths designed for the reactive soil conditions typical of the region. We will coordinate with the Director's design team to confirm foundation specifications prior to construction. Transformer delivery will be scheduled to minimise storage time on site, with units transported from [INSERT: Your supply source] on dedicated low-loader transport.

Commissioning will include comprehensive protection relay testing, oil sampling and analysis, and staged energisation in coordination with Power Water Corporation. We will obtain all necessary NT S40 Certificates of Compliance for each lot prior to Practical Completion.

Low Voltage Distribution

The LV distribution network will be constructed using underground cable with pillar-based metering at each lot boundary. This approach, standard for PWC networks, provides individual lot isolation capability and simplifies future maintenance. Service connections to existing dwellings will be staged to minimise outage duration, with affected residents notified 48 hours in advance as required by the Statement of Requirements.

Telemetry System

We will install a telemetry system enabling remote monitoring of water and sewerage infrastructure. Given the community WiFi reliability issues noted in Addendum 11, the system will utilise hardwired communications with cellular backup. The telemetry system will integrate with the broader SCADA architecture being developed for the renewables package, providing a unified monitoring platform for all essential services.

Potable Water Ring Main

The new potable water ring main will replace the existing radial system with a looped configuration providing improved pressure stability and supply redundancy. This is a critical upgrade - the current system provides limited pressure during peak demand periods and has no redundancy if a main section fails.

We will construct the ring main using [INSERT: Your pipe specification, e.g. "PE100 PN16 polyethylene pipe"] in accordance with AS/NZS 4130 and PWC standards. All fittings will be electrofusion welded with 100% joint testing. Our methodology allows for progressive commissioning of ring main sections while maintaining supply through the existing network.

Fire Hydrant Network

Fire hydrants will be installed at spacings compliant with AS 2419.1, providing coverage to all residential and community lots. Hydrant assemblies will be above-ground pillar type suitable for the climate, with isolation valves enabling individual hydrant maintenance without system shutdown.

Temporary Water Treatment Connection

As specified in Addendum 10, we will connect to the temporary water treatment plant currently servicing the community and maintain this connection until the permanent treatment plant is operational. Our approach includes:

• Initial connection validation with water quality testing to confirm treatment plant output meets Australian Drinking Water Guidelines
• Temporary pipework designed for rapid removal upon permanent plant commissioning
• Coordination with the treatment plant operator to manage any planned maintenance outages
• Final removal of temporary works and connection to permanent treatment plant, with zero supply interruption through use of temporary bypass

Asbestos Management

Addendum 11 identifies one existing water main as potentially containing asbestos cement. Prior to any work on existing mains, we will engage a licensed asbestos assessor to confirm material composition. Where asbestos is confirmed, removal will be conducted by our licensed asbestos removal subcontractor, [INSERT: Subcontractor name and license number], in accordance with the Code of Practice for the Safe Removal of Asbestos. All asbestos-containing materials will be transported to a licensed disposal facility - noting that disposal within UKTNP or at the Mutitjulu disposal site is not permitted.

Pump Stations

We will construct three sewerage pump stations as specified in the Director's design documentation. Each station will be a below-ground wet well configuration with duty/standby submersible pumps, providing N+1 redundancy. Pump stations will include:

• Reinforced concrete wet well with corrosion-resistant internal lining
• Submersible pumps with guide rail system for maintenance access without confined space entry
• Level sensors and high-level alarms connected to the telemetry system
• Emergency storage capacity sized for minimum 4-hour retention at average dry weather flow
• Odour control measures including sealed covers and vent filters

Pump station commissioning will include wet testing with potable water prior to connection to the live sewer network, ensuring all level controls and alarms function correctly.

Rising and Gravity Mains

Rising mains will be constructed using [INSERT: Your pipe specification] with fusion-welded joints. Gravity mains will be PVC-U in accordance with AS/NZS 1260, installed to grades specified in the design documentation. All gravity sewer will be CCTV inspected prior to commissioning to confirm joint integrity and grade compliance.

Decommissioning of Existing Septic Systems

Following connection of each lot to the new sewer network, existing septic tanks will be decommissioned in accordance with SA Health guidelines:

1. Contents pumped by licensed liquid waste contractor and transported to licensed treatment facility
2. Tank cleaned and inspected for structural integrity
3. Tank filled with clean sand or crushed rock, or removed entirely depending on location and Director preference
4. Ground surface reinstated to match surrounding levels
5. Where tanks are removed, ground disinfection using lime treatment

All septic waste and removed infrastructure will be transported off-site. As noted in Addendum 11, the Mutitjulu disposal site cannot be used for project waste. We have allowed for transport to [INSERT: Your nominated disposal facility, e.g. "Alice Springs Waste Management Facility"], approximately 450km from site.

We will construct the 12-bed contractor accommodation facility at the Rangerville site in accordance with the design specifications updated in Addenda 10 and 11. Key design parameters we will achieve:

25-Year Design Life: The facility is a permanent asset being handed to the Director, not temporary construction accommodation. Our design approach incorporates: [SUGGESTED: These design specifications are typical for remote NT accommodation - adapt to your building partner's approach]

• Structural framing designed for wind Region C (ultimate wind speed 69 m/s)
• Roof and wall cladding with Colorbond or equivalent with minimum 25-year warranty
• Foundation system designed for reactive soils with appropriate articulation
• Mechanical ventilation and cooling systems with readily-available replacement parts
• Materials selection favouring durability over cost in remote maintenance environment

Configuration: 12 ensuite bedrooms with common kitchen and laundry facilities (updated from individual facilities per Addendum 10). The common areas will be sized to accommodate all 12 residents simultaneously and will include commercial-grade appliances rated for continuous use.

Security and Services: [SUGGESTED: These security provisions represent good practice for remote accommodation - adjust to your design]

• 2.4m security fencing with controlled access gate
• CCTV coverage of entry points and common areas - hardwired system as recommended in Addendum 11 due to community WiFi reliability issues
• External security lighting on dusk-to-dawn sensors
• Gravel driveway and parking for 12 vehicles plus delivery access
• Connection to new essential services infrastructure (power, water, sewer)

Handover Condition: We acknowledge that upon project completion, all furniture and appliances used by our workforce during construction must be removed, the facility cleaned to a standard suitable for immediate occupation, and any damage caused during our occupation repaired or replaced. Our project budget includes provision for professional cleaning and any required make-good works.

The Mutitjulu community of approximately 296 residents must maintain continuous access to power, water, and sewerage throughout construction. Our service cutover strategy ensures this through careful staging and contingency planning.

Staging Principles: [SUGGESTED: These specific parameters demonstrate good practice - adjust based on your operational capabilities]

1. No more than 10% of lots to be simultaneously affected by any service transition
2. Maximum planned outage duration of 4 hours for any individual lot
3. No planned outages during extreme heat events (forecast >40°C)
4. 48-hour advance notice to affected residents as required by Addendum 11
5. Temporary supply provisions in place before any permanent disconnection

Electrical Cutover:

New LV service connections will be installed and tested prior to disconnection from the existing network. For each lot:

• New service cable installed and terminated at meter pillar (not energised)
• Resident notified of cutover date and time
• Existing service disconnected, new service energised, meter reading recorded
• Total interruption time typically less than 30 minutes per lot

Water Cutover:

The ring main configuration allows progressive cutover with supply maintained through the loop:

• New main sections commissioned and connected to live network
• Individual lot connections transferred from old main to new main
• Old main sections isolated and decommissioned only after all connections transferred
• Temporary standpipes available if unexpected issues extend any planned interruption

Sewer Cutover:

Gravity sewer connections do not require service interruption - new connections are made live and existing septic systems decommissioned subsequently. Pump stations will be commissioned with potable water testing before accepting live sewage flow.

Contingency: We will maintain temporary generation, water tanks, and portable toilet facilities on site throughout the construction period. [SUGGESTED: In the event of any unplanned service failure affecting residents, temporary supply will be established within 2 hours - commit to response time you can achieve].

System Configuration

[SUGGESTED: The 1MW solar array will be configured as 10 x 100kW modular subsystems - this modular approach is recommended but adjust based on your preferred equipment]. This modular approach provides several advantages for the Mutitjulu installation:

• Staged commissioning capability - subsystems can be brought online progressively
• Fault isolation - a fault in one subsystem does not affect the other nine
• Maintenance flexibility - individual subsystems can be taken offline without significant generation loss
• Spare parts standardisation - all subsystems use identical components

Each 100kW subsystem comprises approximately 180 solar modules, a string inverter, and associated DC cabling and protection equipment. [SUGGESTED: Total array capacity of 1MW DC will deliver approximately 1,800 MWh annually based on Mutitjulu solar irradiance data (average 5.9 kWh/m²/day) - verify with your own modelling].

Module Selection

We propose [INSERT: Your module manufacturer and model, e.g. "Tier 1 monocrystalline PERC modules"] meeting the following specifications: [SUGGESTED: These specs represent best practice for this environment - adjust based on your equipment selection]

• CEC-approved for Australian grid connection
• Minimum 25-year performance warranty (≥80% output at year 25)
• Temperature coefficient better than -0.35%/°C (critical for Mutitjulu ambient temperatures)
• Salt mist and ammonia resistance certification (durability in remote environment)
• Manufacturer with Australian support presence

Mounting Structure

Modules will be mounted on a ground-mounted, fixed-tilt system using aluminium framing on driven steel posts. Design parameters: [SUGGESTED: These parameters represent typical design for this latitude - confirm with your structural engineer]

• Tilt angle optimised for Mutitjulu latitude (approximately 25°)
• Wind loading designed for Region C (as per AS/NZS 1170.2)
• Ground clearance minimum 500mm for vegetation management and fauna passage
• Row spacing calculated to eliminate inter-row shading at winter solstice
• Post embedment depth determined by geotechnical investigation (included in our scope)

Site Location and Cultural Constraints

The solar array will be located within Lots 302(A) and 303(A) as specified. We acknowledge and will comply with the restriction in Addendum 11 requiring a minimum 5-metre buffer from the men's business site to the north and east of Lot 303(A). Our preliminary site layout demonstrates compliance with this requirement - refer to the attached site plan showing the buffer zone clearly marked.

Prior to finalising array layout, we will consult with the Cultural Manager and Community Liaison Officer to confirm no additional cultural constraints apply to the specific positioning of infrastructure within the lots.

System Configuration

[SUGGESTED: The 3MW.hr Battery Energy Storage System will be configured as three 1MW.hr containerised units - this N-1 redundancy approach is recommended but adjust based on your supplier]. This configuration provides:

• N-1 redundancy - community supply maintained if one unit is offline for maintenance or fault
• Staged commissioning and future capacity expansion capability
• Simplified logistics - standard 20ft container format transportable on standard trucks
• Factory-integrated systems reducing on-site installation complexity

We propose [INSERT: Your BESS manufacturer/model] [SUGGESTED: lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry - LFP is preferred over NMC for this application, but use your preferred chemistry]. LFP is preferred over NMC chemistry for this application due to:

• Superior thermal stability and safety profile
• Better cycle life at high ambient temperatures
• No cobalt content (supply chain and ethical considerations)
• Proven performance in Australian remote area installations

Performance Specifications [SUGGESTED: These specs represent industry-standard targets - adjust based on your equipment supplier capabilities]

Thermal Management

Mutitjulu experiences ambient temperatures exceeding 45°C during summer. Battery cell temperatures must be maintained within the 15-35°C optimal range to achieve specified cycle life and capacity retention. Our thermal management approach: [SUGGESTED: This approach is typical for desert installations - adjust based on your BESS supplier's thermal management system]

• Liquid cooling system with glycol-water coolant loop
• Redundant cooling pumps (duty/standby) for reliability
• Cooling system sized for 50°C ambient with full charge/discharge cycling
• Container insulation to R2.5 minimum
• Auxiliary HVAC for power electronics compartment

The cooling system power consumption (parasitic load) is included in our system modelling and renewable fraction calculations.

Fire Safety

Each BESS container will incorporate: [SUGGESTED: These fire safety features represent industry best practice - confirm with your BESS supplier]

• Multi-level battery management system with cell-level monitoring
• Smoke and thermal detection with automatic shutdown
• Aerosol-based fire suppression system designed for lithium battery fires
• Pressure relief venting to prevent container rupture
• External bollard protection against vehicle impact
• Minimum separation distances from other structures per FM Global guidelines

We will prepare a BESS Fire Safety Assessment for review by NT Fire and Rescue Service prior to commissioning.

Black Start Capability

The BESS will provide black start capability for the Mutitjulu microgrid. In the event of total system shutdown, the BESS can energise the distribution network and provide a stable voltage and frequency reference for diesel generator synchronisation. [SUGGESTED: Black start procedure - this sequence is typical but confirm with your control system integrator]:

1. BESS inverters establish island grid (400V, 50Hz)
2. Critical loads energised (water treatment, communications)
3. Diesel generators started and synchronised to BESS-formed grid
4. Solar array reconnected and ramped to available output
5. Remaining loads restored progressively

Black start will be tested during commissioning and annually thereafter as part of the maintenance program.

Emergency Generator Connection

As specified in the Statement of Requirements, we will provide a connection point for a hired emergency generator in the event of powerhouse failure. This will be a cam-lock connection point rated for 500kVA generator, located adjacent to the BESS compound with appropriate protection and interlocking to prevent inadvertent paralleling.

Design Approach

Addendum 8 confirms that detailed SCADA requirements information is unavailable at the RFT stage and that the Director cannot provide existing SCADA system details or example pages. We have developed our SCADA integration approach on the following basis:

Assumptions:

• The existing powerhouse SCADA is a proprietary system with limited third-party integration capability
• Integration will be achieved via industry-standard protocols (Modbus TCP/IP or DNP3) at defined interface points
• The Director will facilitate access to the existing SCADA vendor post-award to define integration requirements
• Our renewables SCADA will be capable of standalone operation if full integration proves impractical

These assumptions are reflected in our D&C Risk Allowance pricing. If actual integration requirements differ materially from these assumptions, we will work with the Director to agree an appropriate variation.

Renewables Control System Architecture

We will implement a dedicated Energy Management System (EMS) for the solar and BESS assets comprising:

• Site controller with real-time optimisation algorithms
• Solar inverter communications and control
• BESS power conversion system control
• Protection relay integration
• Weather station input (irradiance, temperature, wind)
• Metering integration for all power flows

The EMS will manage solar curtailment, BESS charge/discharge, and diesel generator dispatch to achieve the 80%+ renewable fraction target while maintaining grid stability. Control modes include:

• Grid-following (normal operation, diesel generators as grid reference)
• Grid-forming (BESS provides voltage/frequency reference)
• Peak shaving (BESS absorbs solar peaks exceeding demand)
• Load following (solar and BESS respond to demand variations)

Powerhouse Integration

Integration with the existing powerhouse will be achieved through:

• Hardwired signals for critical protections (e.g., reverse power, over-frequency)
• Communications link for setpoint exchange and status monitoring
• Defined operational protocols for diesel start/stop based on renewable availability

We will work with the Director and the existing powerhouse operator during detailed design to define precise interface requirements. Our approach is to minimise modifications to the existing powerhouse SCADA, instead implementing integration logic within our renewables EMS.

Remote Monitoring Platform

In accordance with the PSPF data security requirements confirmed in Addendum 11, all monitoring and data storage will be Australia-based:

• Cloud platform hosted in Australian data centres only
• All system administration and support based in Australia
• Web-based interface accessible to Director staff with appropriate credentials
• Automated reporting of system performance, alarms, and renewable fraction metrics

Given the WiFi reliability issues noted in Addendum 11, primary communications from site will utilise [INSERT: Your communications approach, e.g. "4G cellular with satellite backup"].

Load Profile Analysis

We have analysed the generator load profile data provided for January-October 2025 (Addendum 8). Key observations: [SUGGESTED: These figures are derived from our analysis of the provided data - verify with your own analysis]

• Average daily consumption: approximately 3,200 kWh
• Peak demand: 850 kW (actual) with 1,166 kW projection for system design
• Minimum demand: approximately 200 kW (overnight)
• Significant seasonal variation with higher loads in summer (cooling) and winter (heating)
• 2% annual growth rate to be accommodated in system design

Renewable Fraction Modelling

Our system modelling demonstrates the proposed 1MW solar and 3MW.hr BESS configuration can achieve greater than 80% renewable fraction on an annual basis: [SUGGESTED: These percentages are indicative based on typical load profiles - you must verify with your own system modelling using the provided load data]

These figures account for:

• Solar panel degradation (0.5% per annum)
• Battery capacity degradation (per manufacturer warranty curve)
• System parasitic loads (cooling, controls)
• Inverter and conversion losses
• Periods of low solar irradiance (weather variability)

Diesel generation remains necessary for periods of extended low solar irradiance and for spinning reserve during high-demand periods. The system is designed to minimise diesel runtime while maintaining supply security.

5-7 Year Payback Assessment

Based on current diesel fuel costs at Mutitjulu (estimated [INSERT: Your fuel cost assumption, e.g. "$2.20/litre delivered"]) and the projected diesel displacement of approximately 280,000 litres per annum, the simple payback period for the renewables investment is within the 5-7 year target specified in the Statement of Requirements. Detailed payback calculations are provided in our Price Schedule submission.

Program Overview

We have developed a construction program that delivers both Package A and Package B within [INSERT: Your proposed program duration] from contract award. [SUGGESTED: The program is structured in four phases - this phasing approach is typical for integrated infrastructure projects but adapt to your delivery model]:

Package Integration

Package A and Package B construction will proceed in parallel where activities do not conflict. Key integration points:

• HV cable route to be installed during Phase 2 civil works, accommodating both essential services distribution and renewables connection
• Substation installation coordinated to enable renewables connection without network reconfiguration
• SCADA/telemetry design finalised during Phase 1 to enable integrated commissioning

Workforce Profile and Accommodation

Peak workforce is estimated at [INSERT: Number] personnel. Given the 12-person limit within UKTNP (Addendum 11), we will manage workforce as follows:

• Core site team (up to 12) accommodated at Rangerville facility once constructed, or at temporary camp during initial mobilisation
• Additional workforce accommodated at Yulara (we have commenced preliminary discussions with Voyages Indigenous Tourism Australia)
• Daily transport provided between Yulara and Mutitjulu for overflow workforce
• Workforce rotation scheduled to minimise Yulara accommodation nights (cost driver)

Community Disruption Minimisation

All works will comply with the 48-hour notice requirement for activities in residential lots. Additionally:

• No heavy vehicle movements through residential areas before 7:00am or after 6:00pm
• Dust suppression on all unsealed access routes
• Noise-generating activities (rock-breaking, compaction) limited to 8:00am-5:00pm weekdays
• Weekly community updates via CLO, with additional communications for any significant upcoming works

Sorry Business Protocols

We acknowledge that Sorry business may require cessation of works at short notice. Our program includes float to accommodate reasonable Sorry business periods without impacting Practical Completion. Our CLO will maintain awareness of community circumstances and provide early advice where possible. During Sorry business:

• All works cease immediately upon notification
• Workforce withdrawn from community areas
• Site secured but no activity
• Works resume only upon CLO confirmation that it is appropriate to do so

Sacred Site Compliance

We will comply fully with the AAPA Sacred Site Certificate (Schedule 5) and CLC Sacred Site Clearance (Schedule 6). Our compliance approach:

• All personnel to complete cultural awareness induction prior to site access, delivered by our Cultural Manager in conjunction with community representatives
• Site plans annotated with sacred site exclusion zones - no personnel access without specific approval
• Daily pre-start briefings to confirm work areas and any cultural restrictions
• Cultural Manager empowered to stop works immediately if any potential breach identified
• Incident reporting protocol for any inadvertent access to restricted areas

The 5-metre buffer from the men's business site adjacent to Lot 303(A) (Addendum 11) will be physically marked on site and treated as an exclusion zone for all construction activities.

Desert Oak Protection

Mature Desert Oaks are culturally significant and must be protected. Our approach:

• All Desert Oaks within 20m of work areas to be identified and marked with protective fencing
• 2-metre buffer maintained around the drip line of each tree
• No excavation, material storage, or vehicle access within buffer zones
• If any root damage occurs inadvertently, fungicide treatment to be applied within 20 minutes (product and application method to be confirmed with arborist advice)
• Any tree requiring removal to receive prior Director approval, with timber stockpiled as firewood for community use

Fauna Protection

The Great Desert Skink is known to occur in the region. Prior to ground-disturbing works:

• Survey of work areas by qualified fauna spotter for active burrow systems
• Any identified burrows marked and excluded from works with appropriate buffer
• If burrow relocation required, undertaken by licensed fauna handler under appropriate permit

Weed and Hygiene Management

Buffel grass and other weeds are a significant management issue in UKTNP. Our approach:

• All vehicles and plant to be inspected and cleaned before entering the Park
• Vehicle wash-down facility established at site compound
• Imported materials (sand, gravel) sourced from certified weed-free suppliers
• Any weed outbreaks within work areas reported to Director and controlled promptly

Construction Environmental Management Plan

We will submit the CEMP within 20 business days of contract award as required. The CEMP will address all 22+ elements specified in the Statement of Requirements including but not limited to:

The CEMP will be developed in consultation with our Environmental Manager, [INSERT: Name], who has prepared CEMPs for [INSERT: Number] projects within National Parks and protected areas.

Quality Management System

[INSERT: Your company name] operates under a quality management system certified to ISO 9001:2015. For this project, we will implement project-specific Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs) covering all construction activities. Key quality hold points include:

• HV cable jointing - witness by independent inspector
• Pipe pressure testing - witnessed and certified
• Concrete pour inspections - reinforcement and formwork check
• BESS factory acceptance testing - witness by our engineer prior to dispatch
• Protection relay settings - verified against design prior to energisation

As-Built Documentation

Per Addendum 5, as-built documentation is required two weeks BEFORE Practical Completion. Our approach to meeting this requirement:

• Survey team captures as-built data progressively during construction
• GDA94 coordinates and AHD depths recorded as each asset is installed
• Documentation updated weekly, not left to project end
• Final documentation package compiled and verified in the two weeks prior to the pre-PC submission deadline

Documentation will be provided in both DWG and Revit formats as specified, with three hard copies and electronic versions.

Testing and Commissioning

Commissioning will be conducted progressively, with each system tested independently before integration:

Operations and Maintenance Manuals

O&M manuals will be provided at Practical Completion comprising:

• Three hard copy sets and electronic version
• Equipment specifications and data sheets
• Maintenance schedules and procedures
• Spare parts lists with supplier contacts
• Warranty certificates and registration details
• As-built drawings (cross-referenced)
• Commissioning test records

Training

We will provide training for Director-nominated staff covering:

• System overview and operating principles
• Routine operational procedures
• Basic troubleshooting
• Emergency procedures
• Remote monitoring platform navigation

Training will be conducted on-site in the two weeks prior to Practical Completion, with sessions recorded for future reference.

Defects Liability Period

We acknowledge the 52-week defects liability period (amended from 2 years per Addendum 5). During this period: [SUGGESTED: These response times demonstrate commitment - adjust based on what you can reliably achieve from Alice Springs]

• Dedicated contact for defects reporting
• Response to critical defects within 24 hours (on-site attendance if required)
• Response to non-critical defects within 14 days
• Quarterly preventive maintenance visits included
• Final defects inspection at week 48 to allow rectification before DLP expiry
