DRFA flood reconstruction, from tender to acquittal.
RIG is the bolt-on pre-contracts and project team for regional civil contractors. On flood and disaster recovery we win you the reconstruction package, then stay on to deliver the formation, resheeting, drainage and floodways to spec and keep the funding audit-clean. You take on bigger flood work without carrying the risk or the paperwork.
The bolt-on pre-contracts, project management and business growth team for regional civil contractors. A partner, not a competitor, from the day the tender drops to the final acquittal.
We build and win DRFA submissions, then deliver the work: gravel formation, resheeting, drainage and floodways across remote road networks, to the TMR MRTS series and under QRA audit.
Bigger flood-recovery packages, delivered to the margin you tendered, with an acquittal file that holds up to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority.

DRFA is jointly funded by the Commonwealth and Queensland and delivered under Queensland Reconstruction Authority audit requirements. The figures above are RIG's own book of work.
Why most DRFA submissions get marked down.
DRFA tenders are scored against QRA audit requirements and the TMR MRTS series, not commercial norms. A methodology that reads like a commercial job loses marks before it is read in full.
On remote unsealed networks, gravel supply and haul logistics decide whether the program is real. Most submissions price the work and never model the constraint that controls it.
Acquittal is unforgiving. If evidence is not captured live and to QRA standard, the funding is exposed at audit, after the work is done and the money is spent.
Activations move fast and over holidays. The contractor who can mobilise crews into remote country in days, not weeks, earns the trust that wins the next package.
Where RIG earns its place.
Remote resheeting program
A council DRFA package across hundreds of kilometres of unsealed road: formation, resheeting and drainage where gravel supply is the critical path and the haul controls the program.
Methodology and program to MRTS, gravel-supply and haul sequencing, and the full submission.
See the workBetterment upgrade
Rebuilding a floodway or causeway to a more resilient standard under the 50:50 betterment arrangements, where the case for betterment has to be made, not assumed.
Betterment justification, design-scope review, and defensible pricing.

A live reconstruction package at risk of audit findings, with claims slipping and the acquittal file falling behind the work.

- A methodology written for the way QRA and TMR evaluators actually score reconstruction work.
- Gravel and haul logistics modelled, so the program survives the first progress meeting.
- An acquittal file kept audit-clean from day one, with the funding protected.
- A founder, Heath, who has personally managed the delivery of more than $133 million of this exact work, including the DRFA program recognised with the CCF Queensland Earth Award.
