Overview

We would like to welcome all EOI Shortlisted Respondents to the subsequent and final tender stage based on a closed RFP.

Christchurch City Council (the Council) is seeking proposals on the Organics Plant Upgrade project in this Request for Proposal (RFP) from shortlisted contractors (Respondents) who were selected based on their submissions to the open Expression of Interest (EOI).

The purpose of this RFP is to invite Respondents to submit their Proposals to upgrade the current composting facility to increase the effectiveness of the composting process and reduce the potential for offensive and objectionable odour to travel beyond the site boundary. Environment Canterbury have issued an abatement notice to the Council requiring all offensive and objectionable odour from the facility to stop travelling beyond the site boundary by 31 January 2022. Although the full upgrades may not be completed within this timeframe, we encourage Respondents to consider how odour can be reduced from the facility as quickly as possible from the point this contract is executed.

The objective of this RFP process is to obtain sufficiently detailed information from Respondents about their respective organisations and their ability to provide the Contract Works. This enables the Council to select and appoint a Contractor to provide the Contract Works.

To align with our strategic aspirations, by awarding the contract to a Contractor, the Council intends to achieve:

• Value for money for Christchurch ratepayers and the wider community by selecting a Contractor that can provide the Contract Works in a manner that meets the Council’s requirements for a competitive capital cost and with strong consideration of operational costs of the facility over the next 25 years;
• Environmental impact by selecting a Contractor that can provide sufficient guarantees that the discharge of odour from the facility will not be offensive and objectionable beyond the site boundary.
• Environmental sustainability by encouraging Respondents to consider power use, greenhouse gas emissions, potable water use and other environmental concerns when developing proposals;
• Social responsibility by ensuring Respondents have strong policies in this area, such as paying a Living Wage;
• Economic benefit by investing in regional resource recovery infrastructure that is industry leading and fit for purpose;
• Efficiency and effectiveness in the delivery of the Contract Works. and Continued service deliver
