RFI Stormwater Treatment Device Maintenance

Auckland Council’s Healthy Waters and Flood Resilience (HWFR) is responsible for managing and improving the health of Auckland’s harbours and waterways, including operating and maintaining the stormwater network and providing flood response. HWFR currently has a regional contract for the regular cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater treatment devices and soakholes predominately in urban areas across the region. The contract work includes inspection, preventive maintenance, recording, reporting, and other works required by Auckland Council from time to time. Auckland Council is now taking the first step in the procurement process for the next set of contracts to commence on 1 July 2028. This RFI is part of the early supplier engagement process with response used to space how the services will be procured and delivered. The services included within the current scope have an annual cost of approximately $4 million. This is a significant opportunity for suppliers with the skills and experience to deliver these services to Auckland Council. Auckland Council wishes to understand the full extent of services that individual suppliers can provide, any innovative technology or approaches that should be considered when procuring the services. Any views around how the services should be bundled, i.e. move to area-based contracts. More details of the information being sought through this RFI are available in the RFI documents attached.
