Red Sea was awarded a contract to supply and commission a 2-storey 432 person secure accommodation facility for refugees. The initial contract was to be executed in 75 days from contract award. The Australian Government (the Commonwealth) subsequently awarded RSHS a further $17M AUD in variations to supply the entire base with desalinated water, waste water treatment, re-establish a sewerage network for supporting housing and liaise with the PNG Government on duties and taxes associated with the project. This contract required a rapid response and a flexible contract to support the Commonwealth’s requirement.
