ITO - Dept of Transport and Main Roads (QLD) - Program Management Implementation Advisory Services for IMIP

The department manages a significant portfolio of transport and road infrastructure initiatives, helping move and connect people, places, goods and services safely, efficiently and effectively across Queensland. The State Budget 2010-11 Agency Budget Highlights for Transport and Main Roads can be located on the Queensland Government website at www.budget.qld.gov.au.

The mandate given to the Portfolio Investment Division (PID) within the department’s operating model is to develop a strategic investment-focused approach to ensure contestability of available departmental funding to optimise asset management and delivery, and to develop asset delivery methodologies that are focussed on ensuring strategic benefits realisation at best value.
A significant number of key portfolio deliverables have now been completed by the integrated IMIP Program Office, including portfolio, program and benefits management methodologies and an integrated governance framework.
This Invitation to Offer outlines the proposed scope, activities, and expertise sought for the Major Program implementation phase (phase 4 of the IMIP Blueprint).

Implementing Major Programs of the scale and complexity of the above requires effective and properly resourced change management. Given that the department does not currently have the capability required, the intent is to partner with external resources. The Work Streams will be delivered (largely) concurrently over nine months.
