Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Role of Private Sector Construction Industry in Delivering High-Quality National Infrastructure: Discussion

2:00 am

Patricia Stephenson (Social Democrats)

My question is about design and the difference between - I cannot recall the terminology - when the construction companies co-design with the Department responsible. How does that differ with the private sector? Is it standard to potentially tender out to a different design or get the construction company design for the specifications from the initial stage? Is there a difference in private versus public sector in co-design?
