Gold Coast Hospital and Health Service (GCHHS) is seeking industry-led solutions for the delayed discharge of older patients who no longer require active medical care but cannot access timely residential aged care. The solutions should focus on increasing access to appropriate residential aged care settings, potentially including infrastructure provision and service delivery. GCHHS estimates a need for over 200 beds by 2028. This is an Expression of Interest (EOI) to gauge market capability and inform future procurement. The closing date for submissions is 29 June 2026. An online market briefing will be held on 1 June 2026. Submissions are to be lodged electronically via the VendorPanel website.
The closing date for submissions is Monday, 29 June 2026, at 5:00 pm.
Submissions will be evaluated against criteria including capability and experience, capacity of the solution, timeframe for delivery, duration, key commercial terms, accreditation/licensing, risks and constraints, service delivery model, patient flow, changing clinical needs, and workforce.
Organisations must be suitably qualified and provide evidence of relevant experience and capability in delivering similar infrastructure and/or services, including scale and complexity, and demonstrate evidence of delivering safe, high-quality outcomes.
The customer may disqualify a supplier if it believes the supplier has breached any warranty, including those related to anti-competitive conduct, conflict of interest, criminal organisation involvement, or accuracy of information.
