What we need
The Taranaki Regional Council (TRC) is seeking a suitably experienced contractor for the construction of a new 1390sqm office building located at 43 Cloten Street Stratford.

What we don’t want
We do not want proposals from companies that do not have the resources to complete the project sufficiently to achieve completion by the deadline, or do not have experience in managing multiply sub trades on a site that is operational and open to the public.

What’s important to us
It is important to TRC that the works are undertaken in a professional and safe manner. There are residential neighbours in close proximity to the site so best practice noise, vibration and dust management are of paramount importance.
The buildings and remainder of the 43 and 47 Cloten Rd sites will remain in use for normal Council operations during the course of the works, minimisation of disruption to these users are also paramount to the running of TRC operations.
Waste minimisation is a priority, therefore contractors should consider this when utilising materials.
The team wish to work with a collaborative and competent main contractor to complete this final project element in 2025.

Why should you bid?
The construction project is the final step in the TRC accommodation project. At the completion of the new build, TRC will have under gone a three year improvement project that has seen the demolition of the Compliance and Inspectorate building which was passed its useful life; electrical mains upgrade, and compliance and heating related improvements to the main office building.

A bit about us
TRC works with the Taranaki community to help make the region a fantastic place to live, play and do business. We provide multiple services to the region including;
• Checking river health
• Monitoring swim spots
• World class Pukeiti, Tupare, and Hollard gardens
• Restoring native habitats
• Public bus services
43 and 47 Cloten Rd, Stratford is the main Council facilities for approx. 250 staff. The premises also conducts logistics support operations including freight deliveries, contractor maintenance etc. These services will still need to run throughout the works process.
As we are tasked with environmental responsibilities for the region, the correct disposal of construction waste as well as re-use or recycling of materials is paramount.
