Overview

The Board of Trustees of Taumarunui High School (the Buyer) is seeking Main Contractor Services for the Upgrade of Fire Safety Facilities at Taumarunui High School (the School).

In 2016 the school suffered a significant loss to their fire safety systems when an old component failed. The fire safety components in most of the school are ageing and need replacement and upgrading to modern standards.
The existing systems, while legal, nevertheless do not meet modern standards, and it has been decided to upgrade the fire safety systems in a manner that will cater for the short-term safety of the occupants while considering long-term planning options. Areas of the school that are deemed to have long-term continuance will be upgraded to modern code requirements, while other areas that will be demolished or significantly altered will have minimal fire safety upgrading work to address critical shortfalls. Some buildings in the school remain unchanged, with fire safety issues deferred until some future time.

Due to the significant amount of fire safety work the role of Main Contractor may be carried out by either:
- a specialist fire safety systems contractor employing other sub-contractors
- a general construction company employing the fire safety systems sub-contractor and other subcontractors.
It is vital that tenderers visit the site to understand that nature of the school, the buildings, and the existing fire safety systems.
