Plaudits are due to McArthur River Mine management for taking the aggressive approach to local business engagement over recent times.
By promoting their operational requirements on ICN Gateway they are interacting with a database highly representational of NT businesses, promoting equal opportunity to all capable businesses in specific categories and doing so through a transparent process. This is for the expression of interest phase but ultimately the results of the tender will be publicised for lower-tier business development potential.
To further demonstrate their desire to interact with NT industry, ICN facilitated a networking function where all relevant MRM procurement personnel attended and met face to face with interested parties.
Companies are to be praised for being pro-active in such engagement. ICN is pleased to be able to play its role in these public events and besides facilitating for MRM and Lendlease in Darwin and Katherine recently, we are looking forward to doing so for the Darwin Ship Lift in partnership with Northern Territory Government. Other presentations are being planned and advice will flow shortly.
