About Central Highlands Regional Council procurement

Central Highlands Regional Council (CHRC) serves communities across Central Queensland, with procurement activity focused within QLD and a visible, year‑round pipeline. Australia Tender Alerts currently tracks 47 CHRC tenders, showing a buyer that regularly commissions civil works, asset maintenance and community facility services. The mix spans place‑shaping upgrades such as RFT260051 Emerald Street Rejuvenation (Egerton, Yamala and Scant), accessibility improvements like RFQ260059 Blackwater Accessibility Project, and facility operations including RFT260049 Bridgeman Park Caretaker Agreement and RFT260046 Management of Central Highlands Aquatic Centres. Council also buys multi‑site services, evidenced by RFT260050 Concrete Crushing Services – 3 Landfill Sites – 3 Year Term. Procurement notices are typically released as RFQs and RFTs, supplemented by standing arrangements and registers (e.g., RFT260015 Preferred Supplier Arrangement – Principal Contracts – Road Construction and RFT260004 Pre‑Qualified Supplier Register – Project Management & Superintendency Services), creating entry points for both specialist contractors and everyday suppliers.

CHRC’s purchasing centres on Construction & Operation and Infrastructure, with repeated packages for roadworks and drainage: RFT260045 Lilyvale Road Culvert Replacement, RFT260039 Arcadia Valley Road Resheeting, and RFT260040 Resheeting of Minerva, Birtley and Wurba Road. Water & Sanitation is another clear theme, from RFT250138 Springsure WWTP: Design & Construct of a New Wastewater Treatment Package Plant through to RFT260042 Capella WTP – Installation of Emergency Generator and Associated Civil Works & Switchboard. Energy, environment and utilities needs appear in RFT250126/RFT250127 Generator, Compressor and Blower Maintenance, “BA and H2S Gas Detection Servicing”, and RFT260048 CCTV Preferred Supplier Arrangement & Maintenance & Support Contract. Council frequently procures civil materials and plant, including RFQ260074 Reinforced Concrete Pipes, RFQ260078/76 precast lintels, pits and grates, RFQ260043 a new plant trailer, and vehicle/grounds fleets via RFT260022/RFT260021 mowers, RFQ260017 a crew cab truck, RFQ260021 a 2.5t forklift, RFQ260020 an SXS utility vehicle, and RFQ290019 a slasher. Waste and sustainability projects (RFT260038 Mattress Processing or Shredding Services; RFQ260044 Kerbside Waste and Recycling Composition Audit), and advisory work such as “Literature Review – Future for the Central Highlands”, round out a balanced annual program.

To engage effectively, watch for short‑turnaround RFQs for supply‑and‑deliver items and discrete civil packages, then scale up to open RFTs and standing arrangements. Panels and registers such as the CCTV Preferred Supplier Arrangement and the Project Management & Superintendency Register are practical pathways to build a track record with Council. In responses, align closely to the specification, propose a workable delivery methodology and program, and evidence comparable projects (e.g., resheeting, culvert replacements, WWTP upgrades). Demonstrate compliance with WHS and environmental management, capacity to service multiple sites (as required for landfill and road programs), clear lead times for materials and plant, and robust maintenance plans where relevant (generators, compressors, CCTV). Smaller suppliers can target packages like RFQ260052 Blain Street Pedestrian Refuge, RFQ260083 Springsure Racecourse Track Preparation, or one‑off materials RFQs, while prime contractors pursue complex works such as RFT250138 (WWTP) or RFT260051 (street rejuvenation).
