Hokitika Airport Resilience Project (HARP) – Airfield Ground Lighting

✈️ Project Overview The Westland District Council is seeking expressions of interest for the Hokitika Airport Resilience Project (HARP), specifically focusing on the upgrade and modernization of the Airfield Ground Lighting (AGL) system. This initiative is a critical component of the airport's strategy to enhance operational resilience against natural hazards, including the potential impact of an Alpine Fault rupture (AF8). 🎯 Key Objectives & Scope The project aims to ensure the airport can support regional aircraft at higher weights and passenger capacities under diverse weather conditions. Key requirements include: Resilience: Systems must function independently of grid or generator power. Technology Preference: A strong preference for solar-powered AGL systems over traditional cabled infrastructure. Maintenance: Solutions should allow for a degree of self-adjustment and maintenance by on-site airport staff. 🛠️ Bidder Requirements Local Presence: Suppliers must have a New Zealand presence with the capability to provide service responses within 24 hours. Technical Capability: Expertise in power generation, distribution, and specialized airfield lighting systems. 🔍 Search Keywords #HokitikaAirport #AGL #AirfieldLighting #ResilienceProject #SolarLighting #WestlandDistrictCouncil #AviationInfrastructure #InfrastructureResilience #NewZealandTenders
