The Defence Infrastructure Panel – Major Construction rates are not published.

The rates will only be provided:

  • to inform procurement activities where a schedule of rates response has been sought as part of the tender documents. The Panel team will validate the Panel rates against those rates submitted at time of tender.
  • to validate a variation that has been issued under an active engagement and the variation is on the basis of the panellist schedule of rates.

If seeking a rate to inform the Endorsement to Proceed, the Panel team can provide an average. 

If rates are sought as part of tender documents, a panellist must use the role descriptors and rates agreed at the panel level in their submission.

Note: there is a 3 day turnaround for all requests related to rates, to allow time to validate rates. This time should be included in the procurement planning.
