The plans, specifications and reports that form part of this RFP provide the detail on what’s required, below is an overview of the scope of works that’s to be included:
• Internal Reconfiguration – Creation of dedicated volunteer facilities, including a small meeting/training room, kitchenette, compliant showers and toilets, and improved locker spaces.
• Repurposing of Existing Spaces – Reconfiguration of portions of the appliance bay that have become available following the relocation of the Lighting Unit to Takapuna, enabling a more functional internal layout and improved accommodation for volunteer personnel.
• Building Services Upgrades – Modernisation of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and ICT infrastructure to ensure safe, compliant, and future proofed station operations.
• Structural and Fire Compliance Works – Implementation of necessary structural adjustments and fire safety improvements, including enhanced separation between operational areas and the appliance bay.
