Contractor for Balfour School Site Drainage and Retention Pit

🏗️ Project Overview The Ministry of Education is seeking a qualified contractor to undertake essential site drainage and retention pit works at Balfour School. This project, identified during the 2022/23 10YPP process, focuses on the replacement of the school's main water supply and stormwater drainage systems, including drainage channels. 📋 Scope of Work The primary objective is to establish effective surface water drainage and runoff management to approved outfalls, thereby mitigating risks associated with surface water flooding and ponding. Key project considerations include: Site Logistics: The work encompasses the entire perimeter of Block A, requiring careful management of site access. Phasing: While the project may require phasing to manage site activity, there is no requirement for staged handover as the drainage constitutes a single, integrated system. Operational Continuity: Contractors must manage potential impacts on access to classrooms and occupied spaces during the construction period. 📍 Location and Procurement Organization: Ministry of Education Region: Southland, New Zealand Tender Type: Request for Tenders (RFT) 🔑 Keywords Civil construction, stormwater drainage, school infrastructure, site drainage, retention pit, water supply systems, Southland construction, Ministry of Education tenders, 10YPP projects.
