Tender Description

Tararua Alliance ( a collaborative partnership with between Downer NZ and Tararua District Council) in working with the Tararua District Council (TDC) is looking to have the 3 waters (wastewater, stormwater & potable water) service connection work for our district to be carried out by external contractors, and are seeking contractors to become Council Approved service providers.
The process will be a one stage open market process administered by TDC.


Tararua Alliance would be looking to have multiple approved contractors in this field to provide the community with options when looking to have 3 water service connections.
This Application is a formal process and is intended to be of minimal effort for respondents and allow Tararua Alliance to seek interest from suppliers.


The key points are:
Currently this service is provided through our Tararua Alliance. By having the 3 waters service connections (waste water, storm water & potable water) carried out by external contractors it allows:
· The Tararua Alliance to concentrate on council's core services and infrastructure
· Council to enable contractors to carry out these services and an opportunity to expand their businesses.
As part of Council's COVID-19 recovery plan, having the 3 waters service connections carried out by external contractors can potentially generate more employment opportunities and enable the economic recovery for our local economy
The Tararua Alliance completed 80 connections in the previous 12 months. With demand for sections and an increase in urban development, we anticipate this numbers to gradually increase (this is one of our assumptions in the Long Term Plan.
