Subject Tender Program Peer Review (TPPR) – <Enter Tender Number and Name>

Dear <Enter Name – Bid Manager>

In <insert date>, the LCPL Construction and I+E ELT approved the requirement to undertake a Tender Program Peer Review
(TPPR) for all tenders where the project value is greater than $200M or Liquidated Damages are greater than $200k/day.

As the subject tender meets these requirements a TPPR is therefore required.

<Delete if not applicable>As the subject tender also requires Leighton Holdings Limited (LHL)
approval, it is also a requirement that a Schedule Risk Analysis (SRA) is conducted and the
results be provided as input to the TPPR.

Review Purpose

The overall purpose of the review is to ensure that there is informed sign off of the tender program. In that respect the review is
focused on;

 Providing an assessment of the program’s integrity, reliability and overall quality.


 Ensuring the program is appropriately substantiated and that the underlying assumptions on which it is built are
robust.
 Providing an assessment of the inherent schedule risk and the appropriateness of time related contingencies.
 Consideration of program related commercial terms and conditions.

Review Duration and Timing

The review is co-ordinated by the LCPL Group Manager Controls & Planning and is undertaken in two parts, the timing of which
ensures any recommendations arising from the review can be suitably addressed prior to the final tender sign-off.

An onsite ‘Interim Review’ is typically scheduled two weeks ahead of the final tender sign-off. From this an interim report and
recommendations is issued to the tender team. A follow up ‘Final Review’ is then undertaken several days prior to the final
tender sign-off. This is typically conducted as a desktop review and focuses on checking the satisfactory close out of actions
from the interim review. On completion of the final review the formal Tender Program Peer Review Report will be issued to all
key stakeholders.
On this basis, the proposed schedule for the <Enter Tender Number and Name> tender based on a <insert proposed date of
Green Sheet sign off> Green Sheet sign off is as follows:

 Interim Review <Enter Dates>


 Final Review <Enter Date>
