Waihī Beach Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade (Design and Build) - ROI

⁠⁠⁠Overview

Western Bay of Plenty District Council (Western Bay) is inviting suitably qualified and experienced contractors to submit a Registration of Interest (ROI) for the Waihī Beach Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade, to be delivered under a Design and Build contract model.

About

The Waihī Beach Wastewater Treatment Plant requires renewal and upgrade works to improve treatment performance, operational resilience and long-term reliability. While the final contract value will depend on the confirmed scope, design solution and tender outcomes, Western Bay currently expects this to be a moderate-scale Design and Build project rather than a major Tier 1-only infrastructure package. The opportunity is therefore considered suitable for capable Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors, including local and regional contractors, who can lead a Design and Build contract and manage the necessary design, specialist supplier, subcontractor and commissioning inputs.

Purpose

A key driver for the project is the reinstatement of critical treatment infrastructure, along with associated improvements to supporting plant systems and assets, to ensure the facility can continue to meet the needs of the Waihī Beach community.

Scope

The project, which has reduced in scope, largely consists of:

• Reinstatement of the SBR
• Upgrading the inlet works
• Upgrading the electrical control centre
• Completing associated ancillary works

Contractor Requirements

• Suitably qualified and experienced contractor
• Capable Tier 1 or Tier 2 contractor, including local and regional contractors
• Ability to lead a Design and Build contract and manage the necessary design, specialist supplier, subcontractor and commissioning inputs

Instructions to Respondents

Following evaluation of ROI submissions, a shortlist of Respondents will be invited to participate in a Request for Tender (RFT) process for delivery of the project under a Design and Build contract model. Further details regarding the project scope, performance requirements and delivery expectations will be provided during the RFT phase. Please raise all questions via the GETS Q&A function.
