Background

Australia is Fiji’s largest bilateral development assistance partner. The Australian Government provides support to Fiji through a range of modalities including direct bilateral programs, partnerships with civil society and multilateral organisations, and investments in education and capacity development.

The Australia Awards program is a flagship initiative of the Australian Government that contributes to the long-term development needs of partner countries by building human capital and strengthening institutional capability. Australia Awards are offered to citizens of Fiji through long-term scholarships and short-term training opportunities.

Australia Awards Fiji contributes to three core outcomes:

1. Alumni use their skills, knowledge and networks to contribute to sustainable development.

2. Alumni contribute to cooperation between Australia and Fiji.

3. Alumni view Australia, Australians and Australian expertise positively

Short courses are a key modality within the Australia Awards program. These programs provide targeted, practical training designed to address priority capability gaps across government and partner organisations. Short courses typically combine classroom-based learning, exposure to Australian practice and structured workplace application.

Through FPSP, Abt Global is responsible for procuring and managing short course delivery under the Australia Awards Fiji program.

This is a great opportunity to bring fresh thinking, leadership capability, and strategic drive to help shape Australia’s future relationship with Asia and the broader Indo-Pacific region through providing young Australians access to learning experiences overseas.

Tetra Tech International Development Pty Ltd (Tetra Tech) invites suitably qualified individual advisers, companies, consortia and not-for-profit organisations to submit a Tender for appointment to the Humanitarian Advisory Panel (the Panel).

The Panel will provide prequalified humanitarian technical advisory services to support DFAT-funded humanitarian programs managed by Tetra Tech, including preparedness, response, recovery, and strategic advisory activities.

Successful Tenderers will enter into a Standing Offer Agreement and may be invited to undertake assignments through the issue of Work Orders. Appointment to the Panel does not guarantee any minimum volume of work.

The Australian Infrastructure Financing Facility for the Pacific (AIFFP) is the Australian Government’s specialist infrastructure financing program within the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The AIFFP is an AUD4.55 billion facility investing in transformational infrastructure across a range of sectors in the Pacific and Timor‑Leste, including maritime, airports, energy, telecommunications, road transport and urban infrastructure. Export Finance Australia acts as the lender of record. The AIFFP provides financing to deliver quality infrastructure with a focus on strong social and environmental safeguards, generating local jobs and responding to the priorities of diverse communities. The AIFFP builds on Australia’s longstanding partnerships with the Pacific and its experience delivering quality aid programming that supports sustained development outcomes for communities. The AIFFP began operating on 1 July 2019 and has 57 signed infrastructure projects across the Pacific and Timor-Leste.

The AIFFP is managed by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, with support from Tetra Tech (the Support Unit). The AIFFP Support Unit provides advice and services to support the delivery of the AIFFP and its objectives.

AIFFP is seeking to engage a client-side advisory (‘the Consultant’) to support PNG Telikom Limited (‘Telikom’) with the contracting, implementation and integration of a Business Support System (BSS) with Virtual Wallet functionality (VW) (‘the New System’). Telikom is the project proponent and has overall responsibility for project delivery. 

Telikom is currently using two BSS systems. Telikom seeks to switch to a new, modern single BSS.

The Supplier would hold overarching contractual responsibility for implementation and integration of the New System. 

Services will be required from May until end June 2026, with a possible extension until 30 June 2027. The full requirements are set out in the terms of reference at Part B.
