Introduction:
Recently, De Leo Consulting responded to a tender by MRWA for the provision of training and business capability development services for Aboriginal businesses and peoples. The scope of the proposed contract includes various service categories such as procurement and tendering support, commercial contracting, financial management, and more. Our focus for submission? Delivering top-notch training and support in procurement and tendering.
The opportunity:
In October 2021, the Minister for Transport announced ambitious business and employment targets aimed at creating opportunities for Aboriginal peoples in the State’s transport infrastructure program. With targets set at $700 million in contract spend on Aboriginal businesses and 3.5 million hours to be worked by Aboriginal people over five years, the opportunity to make a meaningful impact is clear.
Interest:
This tender isn’t just about winning a contract; it’s about building and sustaining a multidisciplinary team dedicated to delivering tailored training in essential skills. With 25 years of experience in the civil contracting industry, we understand the ins and outs of procurement and tendering like no other.
Where else can you learn this?
Procurement and tendering skills are essential, yet often elusive. While many have had some exposure to these processes, finding comprehensive courses that tie it all together can be challenging. Sure, there are courses for contract management and project management, but none quite capture the real-world essence like ours.
Why De Leo Consulting?
At De Leo Consulting, we believe in learning by doing. Our training courses reflect real-world practices, highlighting both the good and the bad. We steer clear of the dreaded “death by PowerPoint” phenomenon, opting instead for engaging teaching methods honed at tertiary institutions.
So what happens now?
As we await the outcome of the MRWA tender process, the possibilities are endless. Will we be part of a panel of training providers, laying the foundation for transformative training? Or will we develop programs for a broader audience? Only time will tell.
