Government appoints a managing contractor who subsequently engages subcontractors via competitive tender processes to complete the design and construct the facility. The managing contractor is typically engaged early in the process to collaboratively assist government with scope definition, design development and work packaging. The managing contractor is paid a fixed management fee, and is reimbursed for the amounts that it pays to subcontractors. The managing contractor may also receive incentive payments for achieving cost, time and quality targets. Government is responsible for the maintenance of the facility.
