Main Roads is replacing its current Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) system, which was implemented in 2001.

This Request for Information (RFI) aims to enable Main Roads to engage with the industry and evaluate the market's capability.

Respondents to this market-sounding only may be invited to showcase their solution and meet with business representatives.
