## Status

**Stage:** Bid (LFCS Letter of Offer submitted 2026-05-06 — awaiting TCE response)
**Active Bid:** [TBC — read Letter of Offer for current $ position]
**Type:** Subcontract, FRP Package (Formwork + Reinforcement + Pour) on a bridge

## What I know (from filenames + Downloads bundle, 2026-05-14)

- **Head contractor:** TCE (TCE Contracting / TCE Civil). LFCS has done other TCE jobs — see `Ongoing Jobs/TCE - Liverpool`, `TCE Contracting - Light Horse Park Redevelopment`, `TCE Easter Creek`, and the completed `TCE-242-HCB-Bridge` (a prior Hammond Canal Bridge job). 2635 is a **new** HCB job, distinct from the completed TCE-242.
- **Bridge:** Hammond Canal Bridge, Munmorah NSW (Central Coast). Drawings ref `NL251342_S__COMBINED_90DD` — 90% Detail Design pack.
- **LFCS scope:** **FRP Package** — formwork, reinforcement, pour. Confirmed by the BOQ filename `P424-HCB-BOQ-FRP-Package`.
- **Key element:** abutment walls. Two formwork strategies shown in reference drawings — (a) panels + soldiers, (b) Slims. Need to pick one and price it.
- **Formwork system supplier:** ACROW — quote already in (subby quote 2026-05-12, file ref `2635_ACROW_Formwork_Quote.pdf`). Read for prices, durations and inclusions.
- **Walkway:** included in scope — example drawing in 03b is "Types — example only", so the actual type per the design pack drives this.
- **Possible cross-reference:** `Upcoming/2602 - Dec Projects - Munmorah Bridge` — same location, different head contractor. Huss flagged a potential overlap in 2626's 00-brief (item 7). **Action:** confirm with Rocky whether 2635 (TCE) supersedes 2602 (Dec Projects) or runs in parallel.

## Job-specific notes / risks / open items

1. **Bridge work ≠ pit work.** Different WHS profile (height, over water, traffic), different programme (likely day-shifts unless TCE specifies otherwise), different formwork system (ACROW panels / Slims vs the 2626 site-built ply chute).
2. **Over-water risk** — Hammond Canal. Environmental + WHS controls heavier than land-based work. EPA approval, marine ecology, possible tidal influence, fall-from-height into water = additional rescue planning.
3. **ACROW formwork pricing** is fixed by the quote — make sure LFCS labour pricing assumes the ACROW productivity rates, not LFCS site-built rates.
4. **Cross-check vs 2602** — could be same job under different head contractor, or different job at same site. Huss flagged in 2626 brief.
5. **Prior HCB job (TCE-242)** is in Completed Jobs — read it for lessons learned before pricing this one.
