How business is awarded

Main Roads is a diverse, decentralised organisation, responsible for the management of the state road network. We trade with many different individuals, companies and authorities. This trade involves both receiving and supplying goods and services.

Legislation requires us to publish a Roads Implementation Program (RIP). The RIP sets out network capital works and maintenance proposals. This document also requires us to give emphasis to competitive processes in delivery of the RIP.

Main Roads' project delivery system (MRPDS) determines the delivery options for major works and projects.

There are three MRPDS volumes:

• Volume 1 — selection of appropriate project delivery options (PDF, 2.68 MB)
• Volume 2 — tendering for major works (PDF, 4.09 MB)
• Volume 3 — major works prequalification system (MWPS) (PDF, 597 KB)
