The Northern Integrated Supply project has reached an important step – the beginning of talks with contractors about getting the project built.

On Oct. 24, the Project Management team from the NISP Water Activity Enterprise hosted an Industry Day to talk with contractors about the elements associated with construction of the Glade Unit of the project.

The goal was to improve the industry’s understanding of the scope of work, bid process and proposal requirements. NISP managers answered questions and helped the construction community understand how it can engage with this project. More than 100 industry representatives attended the event.

In 2024, project designers will move forward toward final design and start the procurement process for building the Glade Unit components.

Construction is anticipated to commence in 2025.
