The proposed Roles, Responsibilities and Obligations (RR&O) of the single DA in this context are as outlined in the attachment. In engaging the market at this stage, the Authority seeks to better understand the appetite and capability for undertaking such a role; whether this is considered feasible; and the early identification of any associated risks, issues or concerns – including any constraints – such as Intellectual Property (IP). The Authority intends to follow this RFI with a ‘virtual’ Industry Day prior to publication of any formal Contract Notice.
