The City of Greater Dandenong is seeking a suitably qualified and experienced design-and-construct contractor to deliver the Light Up Buckingham feature-lighting project at Buckingham Avenue, near Multicultural Place, Springvale.

The preferred concept comprises four illuminated structural support pillars carrying a large suspended circular halo above the roadway. The contractor will be responsible for site investigations, multidisciplinary detailed design, engineering certification, permits and approvals, fabrication, supply, civil and electrical works, installation, testing, commissioning, training and handover.

The works include programmable colour-changing LED lighting and an automated lighting-control system suitable for civic occasions, celebrations, festivals and normal night-time operation.

The contract is proposed as a lump-sum design-and-construct arrangement. Tenderers may engage suitably qualified specialist subcontractors but will remain fully responsible for the complete design and delivery of the works.

The works are to be undertaken at Buckingham Avenue and Multicultural Place, Springvale, Victoria. Tenderers must provide a detailed programme as part of their submission.

Available concept, site, service and preliminary electrical information will be provided in the tender documents. Tenderers must independently inspect the site and verify all preliminary information required for their detailed design.
