Background information / Compatibility requirements
Details
The Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority (GIICA) is laying the foundations for the Games of the XXXV Olympiad 2032 and the 2032 Paralympic Games (the Games) and beyond. Established under Queensland legislation, GIICA is responsible for the planning, procurement, design, construction, commissioning, completion, and handover of a comprehensive infrastructure delivery program, spanning 17 new and upgraded sporting and community venues - the GIICA Authority Venues Program (the Program).
GIICA is building a legacy that transcends the Games and provides the infrastructure Queensland needs for generations. This is done in careful consultation with the communities that will benefit. Our projects will create better connected, healthier, more sustainable, and inclusive communities right across the state. We are committed to integrating nation-leading design and innovation, achieving best practice sustainability, inclusivity, and accessibility, and working closely with Traditional Custodians and First Nations Peoples to showcase 'Country-first' principles in our projects.
GIICA’s strategic objectives include the delivery of venues, providing a positive legacy for Queensland by maximising the use of new and upgraded infrastructure before, during, and after the Games.
GIICA is not just focused on four weeks of sport. Its goal is to leverage this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to host the world’s largest sporting celebration to build transformational infrastructure that will set Queensland up for generations to come. GIICA’s vision is to achieve a legacy that transcends the Games, leading Queensland to thrive as a globally recognised region, benefitting every community.
To realise this ambitious undertaking, GIICA is seeking to leverage the industry’s innovative ideas, tools and design and construction expertise to deliver all aspects of the Program.
To achieve this, GIICA is committed to cooperation and collaboration between GIICA and our industry partners.
