The Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme is a signature initiative for the Australian Government that enables workers from 9 Pacific Island Countries (PICs) and Timor- Leste to work in priority sectors in Australia. The Pacific Labour Mobility Support Program’s (PLMSP) role is to provide the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and governments in 9 PICs and Timor-Leste with support to enable workers to access PALM scheme in inclusive ways that maximise the benefits for the workers and national economies while minimising risks from labour mobility participation. Palladium is contracted to deliver PLMSP on behalf of DFAT.  

On behalf of the Australian Government, the Economic and Social Infrastructure Program (ESIP) is inviting suitably qualified contractors to undertake building services maintenance on the Metoreia Urban Health Centre in Hanuabada Village, Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.

This tender is open to companies that meet the criteria detailed in the RFT documentation. A tenderer may submit a proposal for an individual building service maintenance scope or for a combined package of services depending on their capacity.

We are seeking an organisation to conduct a comprehensive study of PNG’s agriculture finance landscape, examining both supply-side and demand-side dynamics. On the supply side, the service provider will investigate the barriers preventing financial institutions—including commercial banks and licensed financial institutions—from expanding their agriculture finance portfolios. On the demand side, the service provider will explore the specific needs, expectations, and challenges faced by producers, aggregators, SMEs, and large agribusinesses across key value chains such as cocoa, coffee, oil palm, and fresh produce. By integrating global best practices with PNG-specific insights, this study will identify actionable solutions that address local market realities.

Upon concluding the data collection and analysis, the service provider will produce two primary outputs: a public report that offers a comprehensive overview of the agriculture finance landscape, and an internal roadmap with recommendations for DFAT and APEP to guide future interventions.
