Project goals

Powerhouse is producing Task Eternal, the largest exhibition for the opening of Powerhouse Parramatta in late 2026. Powerhouse seeks to engage a suitably qualified supplier or suppliers to undertake design development, supply, manufacture/fabricate fit out elements to house exhibition collection objects and commissions.

This measure safeguards confidential materials and supports Powerhouse’s efforts to deliver a high-profile and impactful opening. Confidentiality declarations and instructions are available in the Requirements section for this RFQ.

The service requirements include:

• Pre-production and briefing with Powerhouse’s Technical Production team and Design and Collections team.
• Prototyping/testing.
• Samples, prototype, finishes sign off by Powerhouse at specified hold points.
• Design development.
• Construction, fabrication and/or supply of furniture, fixtures and equipment.
