Health and Safety (H&S) Auditor Panel

Details

The Dunedin City Council (DCC) is seeking to establish an independent panel of external health and safety (H&S) auditors to provide expert advice on the health and safety management of projects and contracts that include critical and high H&S risks. The independent auditors will be auditing physical works contracts and be required to conduct comprehensive audits of the H&S plan and site inspections.

It is envisaged that two – four H&S auditors will be appointed to the panel and the work awarded via rotation or experience in the associated risks. The proposed contract term for the panel is a maximum of 5 years subject to performance.

An auditor does not need to be based in Dunedin but the majority of contracts for DCC is for services provided within the Dunedin City boundary. The DCC also owns buildings in Christchurch, Porirua, and Auckland, and from time to time an auditor may be required for a DCC project in those cities.

The DCC is seeking to partner with professional H&S audit services providers who will work alongside the DCC staff and Contractors. We are seeking organisations that have: -
• The experience, capability and capacity to deliver the DCC’s audit needs.
• A desire to work with the DCC for the long-term.
• A commitment to providing the best value for money services.
• A pro-active partnering approach.
• Commitment to sustainability and emissions reductions.
