Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠OVERVIEW OF GOODS/SERVICES

Queensland Rail Ltd (Queensland Rail) is one of Australia’s largest rail transport providers. As an integrated rail business with more than 150 years of operational experience, serving the freight, tourism and passenger markets, it provides safe passenger services within the Brisbane metropolitan area and key regional centres throughout the State of Queensland.

Queensland Rail has a requirement to engage a Contractor to provide payroll solution services for the ongoing management and payment of independent contractors and contingent personnel that are sourced by the Queensland Rail business units.

With the current contract expiring on 9 July 2024, there is a requirement to establish a replacement contract to ensure continuity in the supply of these services.
