Overview

Further to the advance notice issued on GETS on the 11 August 2016 (ref 17762464) and subsequent addendum notifying of a delay, the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) is now looking to release an RFT for a Christchurch Construction Contractor mid-February 2017.

The content of the previous advance notice is summarised below together with an updated timeline. Also attached to this notice is an updated and indicative developed design layout of the archives facility:

DIA is looking to support Archives New Zealand (Archives NZ) through the 2017/2018 build of a new archival storage facility in Wigram, Christchurch. Archives NZ is the official guardian of New Zealand's public archives and gathers, stores and protects an extremely wide range of material. A new build has been deemed necessary as in addition to reaching capacity the existing Christchurch facility received significant damage during the 2011 earthquakes and is now unable to support Archives NZ in the delivery of its ongoing duties.

RFT documentation will contain all the information necessary for prospective respondents but to assist in informing suppliers about expected requirements we have included and attached some details around the proposed facility. Details provided are in draft form and for information purposes only. Finalised documentation and specifications will be provided at the time of the release of the RFT (if any):

- Main contractor package to build a new archive facility and offices
- Approximately 3,000m2 plus external areas
- Green field site at Wigram Air Force base, Christchurch
- External areas includes car and bike parking, landscaping, fencing, outdoor plant area and secure courtyard
- Archive storage areas are formed using precast panels with structural steel frame incorporating Rooflogic
- Built to Importance Level (IL) 2
- Mobile racking to be installed on rails within the archives stacks
- Offices will be formed using traditional lightweight materials
- Expected construction and hard fit out period is May 2017 to May 2018.

Please note that as the archival storage solution is an integral part of the overall build DIA will include a Nominated Supplier for the archival storage.

No information is being asked for at this time but in subscribing to this notice you will be automatically notified when the RFP is released (if any).

RFx Outcome

This tender has been completed.
