Project anatomy
Contract scope and delivery roles
- Client / authority
- Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads / Maritime Safety Queensland
- Delivery parties
- Pacific Marine Group Pty Ltd - confirmed prime contractor under MSQ26005, Fender-system supplier, steel-pile fabricator, coatings, diving, survey, lifting and other lower-tier parties - not publicly identified
- Contract route
- The Queensland TMR 2025-26 contract disclosure records an open procurement and a contract date of 11 May 2026. The public resource provides the award title, buyer, contractor and AUD 423,687 value but no tender estimate, offer count, contract form, variation, payment or final-account information.
- Execution window
- No project-specific start date, marine work window, completion target, navigation notice, practical-completion date or acceptance record is publicly available as of 6 August 2026.
- Works package
- The controlling award title limits the evidenced physical scope to replacement of fender piles at the Townsville MSQ Base wharf. It does not state the pile count, diameter, length, material grade, fender arrangement, extraction or driving method, protective treatment, cathodic protection, deck or service interfaces, temporary works, testing or reinstatement requirements.
- Marine interfaces
- The work is a live-water wharf-maintenance package that may require access around an operating MSQ facility, removal and installation at the berth face, lifting, pile handling, diving or inspection and reinstatement of a vessel-contact system. Those activities are reasonable interface questions, not confirmed MSQ26005 methods or allocations. Pacific Marine Group's nearby Townsville facility and published fleet demonstrate mobilisation capacity but do not prove which assets, if any, are assigned.
- Commercial evidence boundary
- The disclosed MSQ26005 value is AUD 423,687. That amount covers the named fender-pile replacement contract, not a whole-site programme, paid-to-date figure or certified final account. No public variation, payment milestone, provisional sum, quantity schedule, subcontract value or final expenditure is available.
