This project is being delivered under a competitively bid alliance model. Maddocks was appointed to advise on the preparation of a Project Development Deed for each alliance to sign, the preparation of the Project Alliance Agreement, reviewing and advising on the commercial framework and request for tender documentation and assisting with negotiations with the Alliance.
