The Indiana Finance Authority has formally initiated its industry review process with the four short-listed construction, finance and maintenance teams for the east-end portion of the Ohio River Bridges Project.

“We are very pleased that we remain on schedule with our procurement timetable,” said Indiana Public Finance Director Kendra York, in a press release. “We have looked forward to getting this phase under way in anticipation of a very competitive process.”

The four teams that will go through the review process are: East End Mobility Partners, which is made up of SNC-Lavalin Capital, John Laing Investments Limited, Zachry Resources, Inc. and Tutor Perini Corp.; Ohio River Mobility Group, which is made up of ACS Infrastructure Development, Inc., Hochtief PPP Solutions North America, Inc. Skanska Infrastructure Development, Inc., Flatiron Constructors, Inc. and Dragados USA, Inc.; Ohio River Transportation Partners, which is made up of Infrared Capital Partners Limited, Balfour Beatty Capital, Kiewit Development Company, Traylor Bros., Inc. and Massman Construction Co.; and WVB East End Partners, which is made up of Walsh Investors, LLC, VINCI Concessions S.A.S. and Bilfinger Berger PI International Holding GmbH.

Over the next three months, a series of one-on-one meetings will be held with the short-listed proposers to explore potential ideas for innovation and cost savings as the concepts outlined in the industry review draft request-for-proposal documents are discussed, according to the release.

In late July, a final request-for-proposal will be issued and responses are due to the Indiana Finance Authority in late-October.
