      <link>https://www.gets.govt.nz//MFAT/ExternalTenderDetails.htm?id=34134620</link>
      <description>&lt;table&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;RFx ID: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;34134620&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Organisation: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Open date: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Wednesday, 20 May 2026 4:00 PM +12:00&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;b&gt;Close date: &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Thursday, 15 October 2026 5:00 PM +13:00&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Categories: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;72100000 - Building and facility maintenance and repair services&lt;br&gt;72120000 - Nonresidential building construction services&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Region: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;International&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign="top"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Overview: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;This is a Notice of Information (Advance Notice) from The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFAT) for provision of construction services on behalf of the Ministry of Education and Training (MoET) in Vanuatu, as part of New Zealand’s International Development Cooperation (IDC) Programme. The goal is to provide resilient, inclusive and sustainable education infrastructure in Vanuatu, as well as responding to the ongoing natural disaster recovery needs.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;MFAT is looking to engage a construction contractor to complete works at various school sites in Vanuatu, including the provision of labour, plant, materials, project management services, logistics, etc. to complete construction works under three different workstreams:&lt;br&gt;1.	 Clear the backlog of repair and reconstruction from previous natural disasters&lt;br&gt;2.	 Repair and reconstruction of facilities damaged in future disasters &lt;br&gt;3.	 Support MoET ‘business as usual’ school upgrades programme&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The location of works will be dispersed across Vanuatu, therefore the contractor must be prepared to mobilise for works outside of Port Vila. The term for this contract may extend up until 2033 with periodic reviews if the supplier demonstrates their continued ability to respond to the requirements. The estimated contract value over this period would be up to NZD $16.3 million with potential extension subject to approval.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The procurement will be conducted via an open market, two stage tender process including a Registration of Interest (RoI) phase to create a shortlist who will then be invited to submit a response to a Request for Proposal (RFP). We are looking for suppliers who can demonstrate capability and capacity to deliver on time and budget, with relevant Pacific Experience, and ensuring all quality and H&amp;amp;S requirements are met. This is a unique opportunity for suppliers to secure a confirmed pipeline of works that advances important development outcomes in Vanuatu.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please note that this Advance Notice is not a tender process - it is simply a notification to the supply market that a procurement opportunity is forthcoming. Any tender information sent to us will not be considered at this stage.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We intend to release the Registration of Interest (ROI) in Q3/4 2026, with suppliers having up to 25 working days to respond, and we expect to offer a briefing session following the ROI release.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you are interested in this opportunity, please subscribe to this GETs notice, as the RFP will be linked here once available.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</description>
