The Tasmanian Government has opened registrations of interest for participation in an upcoming market sounding process as the next step in the Macquarie Point Urban Renewal project.
The market sounding process seeks feedback on the procurement and delivery options available for the Macquarie Point Precinct, including investigating opportunities to harness private sector investment and innovation.
Minister for Business, Industry and Resources, Eric Abetz, encouraged development, construction, and advisory experts to register their interest as part of this process.
"We are seeking feedback on who is interested in working with the Tasmanian Government on this landmark project and what ideas they may have," Minister Abetz said.
"This project will unlock decades of economic investment, jobs, and opportunity.
"It will create a bustling precinct for all Tasmanians and visitors to enjoy.
"This is why we're building the right team of experts who can deliver our vision for the Precinct through innovation and best practice which will be vital for the project's success.
"We need a team of innovators who have the capability to deliver on our ambitious vision supported by our 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania's Future.
"The transformation of Macquarie Point will shape Tasmania for generations and I know many will be excited at the prospect of being involved."
Market Sounding is the first step in considering a private partner to activate the Macquarie Point Precinct and is used prior to the commencement of a formal procurement process. It involves discussions with market participants to gain feedback on key aspects of the procurement approach and its delivery.
