The Authority awarded an enabling works contract to ISG Construction Limited (“ISG”) on 22nd February 2023 via the SEWSCAP3 framework agreement. Subsequent to that, and in accordance with SEWSCAP3, the Authority entered into a main works contract on 22nd December 2023. ISG Construction Ltd filed for administration on 19 September 2024 and construction works ceased. As a interim solution to address issues brought about by ISG entering into administration and to address the urgent issues associated with protecting the project/site, the continuation of construction works and to allow sufficient time to undertake a compliant procurement process, the Authority has novated the enabling works and main works contracts for construction for a short-term interim period to the main sub-contractor appointed under the main works contracts. This Award Notice provides an update on the process.

"description": "The project is well progressed on site to meet existing project timelines and will meet the implementation timescale of September 2026. Continuing with the current contractor under the current contractual arrangements at this stage of the project is critical to maintain costs, programme and quality, for both the delivery and aftercare. This would provide the least possible disruption and ensure additional school places could be added to the city\u2019s educational capacity.\nCC has novated the main contract maintaining the supply chain (including the viability of the supply chain) and mobilising on site as soon as possible. Delays on programme have a significant impact on the school capacity to accommodate pupil numbers, standard of education provision and funding timescale. This is an exceptional situation where extreme urgency has been brought about by events unforeseeable and not attributable by CC, whereby CC has run a procurement process to find a replacement contractor as outlined in the previous Contract Award Notice and following this did not receive any responses. Re-procurement through any other route would now make it impossible for CC to conduct a regulated procedure within prescribed time limits due to the critical nature of the works both in terms of health and safety, viability of the supply chain, state and condition of partly completed works and the required delivery date of the campus.\n(WA Ref:157993)",
