Cardno Limited (CDD) announced that it has been appointed preferred tenderer to the $150 million five-year Papua New Guinea–Australia Law and Justice Partnership (PALJP) funded by AusAID. This project replaces Cardno’s previous five-year appointment in this sector. Cardno also has had its contract for the AusAID-funded, Basic Education Program in Indonesia, extended until June 2010. The extension increases the total contract value under management on this project to $171 million.
Cardno Managing Director Mr Andrew Buckley noted that these project wins further added to Cardno’s strong position in the International Development Assistance market. He said that Cardno’s decision to expand its presence in the development assistance arena over the last 4 years via the acquisition of Cardno Acil (Australia), Cardno Agrisystems (U.K.) and Emerging Markets Group (Washington, D.C.), has positioned the company as a global service provider in a sector relatively unaffected by the current global economic conditions.
“Whilst some private sector markets are slowing due to economic contraction, Cardno’s development assistance businesses are well placed to grow”
