Narrandera Shire Council has announced its decision to accept a tender submitted by Keane Civil for the Barellan Sewer Scheme Construction.
Following the conclusion of the open tender process on 27 July, the tender assessment panel carefully evaluated all submissions, Council said today.
“Keane Civil emerged as the preferred tenderer, scoring second highest by a very narrow margin in the evaluation process. Furthermore, Keane Civil’s tender was the only one that fell within the allocated budget of $8.3 million (excluding GST). The company showed impressive performance across all evaluation criteria, highlighting their skills and abilities to successfully deliver the project,” the Council said in a statement.
The Barellan Sewer project has been a focus for Narrandera Shire Council following the finalisation of its design in late 2022. After updating cost estimates, Council approved a budget increase to $8.3 million at the April 2023 meeting, enabling the procurement of the construction phase.
The tender evaluation process encompassed a comprehensive assessment of various criteria, including relevant experience, general history, technical skills, management capabilities, method, time performance, and price.
Council says it is confident in its decision to select Keane Civil as the preferred tenderer for the Barellan Sewer Scheme Construction.
Mayor, Neville Kschenka said Council looks forward to collaborating with Keane Civil on the significant project, which aims to enhance the sewer infrastructure in the Barellan area.
“It’s pleasing to see this project come to fruition, it will greatly benefit the town in terms of future development,” the Mayor said.
This project is being funded by the NSW Government and Narrandera Shire Council.
