Innovation in design may be achieved through greater emphasis on outcomes and whole of life optimisation from the integrated PPP delivery partner model, including but not limited to:
1. Designing infrastructure to minimise the life cycle cost of the project through, for example, the implementation of technological innovations and improved Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) performance features.
2. Challenging existing design assumptions to achieve efficiency gains, construction and maintenance cost reductions and environmental policy objectives, which may result in potentially greater economic, environmental and social outcomes for relevant stakeholders and the wider community.
3. Providing bidders with early access to quality information allowing bidders to focus on aspects that will extract the most value and obtain the best project outcomes.
