PROJECT, SERVICES, SPECIFICATIONS AND CONTRACT TYPE

Project:

Housing New Zealand (HNZ) requires Lead Designers for property assessments & design delivery for the retrofit of properties to be carried out in 3 regions (Bay of Plenty, Hawkes Bay & Gisborne and Canterbury):

The Retrofit Programme has been piloted in the Hutt Valley with 66 properties completed in 2018 and a further pilot of 200 properties is currently underway in the Hutt Valley and due for completion early 2020. The overall intent of the Retrofit Programme is to increase the number of properties that are warm, dry, and safe by focusing on interventions to existing HNZ properties that will improve the thermal performance of the property and to achieve as close to new build standards through the renewal of significant components, including the upgrade of kitchens & bathrooms, and the creation of open plan living areas.

Please Note: The Retrofit Programme has been approved for the financial year ending 30th June 2020 (FY20) and is waiting approval to proceed for FY21 & FY22, which is expected before the end of calendar year 2019. This is an open market RFP which will be evaluated with the intention of appointing a Lead Designer for the Canterbury region to deliver the design phase of the Retrofit programme during FY20 with a contract renewal option for FY21 & FY22.
