What the buyer is requesting
Details
Central Queensland University (CQU) is seeking Proposals from suitably qualified and experienced consultants to design and propose a modular, scalable approach to preparing for emerging climate-related financial disclosure requirements, noting these are not yet mandated for statutory bodies in Queensland.
Background information / Compatibility requirements
Details
This invitation deliberately does not prescribe a fixed scope of works. Suppliers are asked to apply their expertise to:
a) articulate what services are required to support compliance with, and readiness for, climate-related financial disclosure frameworks such as Australian Accounting Standards Board AASB S2, International Sustainability Standards, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures framework and broader Australian public sector and higher education regulatory expectations including NSW Treasury’s TPG 24-33,
b) distinguish between core foundational services, optional or advanced services, and future-phase services as disclosure maturity evolves, and
c) propose a delivery model that supports both institution-specific requirements and shared, multi-institution solutions that would be applicable across regional universities.
Desired Outcomes ('Nice to haves', Conditions & Warranties, SLA's, Project benefits)
Details
In addition to CQU’s own needs, this Invitation expressly seeks proposals that identify opportunities for collaboration across Reginal Universities Network (RUN) institutions, including:
• services and deliverables that can be standardised or reused across multiple universities,
• shared tools, frameworks, template or guidance materials,
• joint training or delivery models,
• pricing structures that demonstrate economies of scale where multiple institutions participate.
While CQU will contract in its own right, suppliers are asked to proactively identify, design and clearly articulate where shared RUN-level solutions are appropriate and how these could be practically implemented.
