Details

Kāinga Ora is seeking general information from suppliers on the provision of potential solution(s) for a consenting system to operate effectively, seamlessly, securely, and efficiently.
This RFI is being issued to get an understanding of the number and type of suppliers and range of solutions, technology and products or services available to successfully complete a detailed Business Case.
Consentium is the only nationally accredited and registered non-Territorial Authority Building Consent Authority (BCA) in New Zealand. It is a standalone, independent division of Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities, a Crown entity which focuses on delivering public housing and providing people with access to quality, affordable housing throughout New Zealand. Consentium provides building compliance services to Kāinga Ora Construction and Innovation division, Market Delivery and HDS but sits apart from it and is overseen by a separate governance body to manage conflicts of interest.

Consentium deliver consenting, inspecting and certification services. This ensures new public homes are of a high quality and meet or exceed New Zealand building standards in terms of design, construction, and connections to infrastructure. This will greatly extend the time the homes can meet New Zealand’s need for a diverse mix of public housing. By taking a national approach, Consentium can prioritise consents, enabling homes to be built faster where they are needed most.
