Architectural Design Services
On 1 November 2018 the Australian Government has approved the Australian War Memorial (‘Memorial’) Redevelopment Project (the Project) with funding of $498.7 million over a nine year period commencing in 2019/20.
This aim of this procurement is to select architectural design consultants to provide architectural design services for the major works components of the Project.

2. remediate existing constraints;
3. enhance gallery spaces;
4. improve visitor experience;
5. improve the connection between the Australian War Memorial and community memorials;
6. create information and reflective spaces for service men and women and their families; and
