About

Queensland Health is seeking a single supplier to provide emergency helicopter services operating from Mackay and Rockhampton; this market notification advises of an intention to release an Invitation to Offer (ITO) and is for information only. The procurement aims to achieve value for Queensland and taxpayers and to ensure fair, open competition through an open tender process; suitably qualified and experienced suppliers are encouraged to bid. The services sought cover aeromedical patient transport including pre-hospital retrieval and inter-facility transfer, plus search and rescue, law enforcement support and assistance to other government agencies as required. Closing date: 30/Sep/2026 05:00 PM (UTC+10:00) Brisbane time. Reference: VP522003.

This opportunity is likely to be most relevant to established aeromedical/helicopter operators with proven capability in pre-hospital retrieval, inter-facility transfers, search and rescue and multi-agency support. Key considerations include the requirement for a single supplier to cover operations from both Mackay and Rockhampton, meeting government value-for-money and open-tender expectations, and preparing a compliant ITO submission by the stated closing date.
