RFx ID: 34584877 Organisation: Ministry of Education - School Infrastructure Open date: Friday, 31 July 2026 9:00 AM +12:00 Close date: Thursday, 27 August 2026 5:00 PM +12:00 Categories: 72000000 - Building and Facility Construction and Maintenance Services Region: Wellington Overview: Background This may include: General description of the Project: The project involves the remediation and upgrade of Block E at Taita College, including full roof replacement, façade upgrades comprising cladding and window replacement, and the replacement of end-of-life floor and wall coverings. The works are intended to improve the building's performance, durability, appearance, and suitability for ongoing educational use. The building is a standard two storey Nelson Block. Outcome sought: To deliver a coordinated design solution for the remediation and upgrade of Block E at Taita College, ensuring the building is weathertight, compliant, durable, and fit for purpose, while improving thermal performance and internal learning environments. History: Taita College is currently undergoing a wider property redevelopment programme, including the demolition of ageing buildings and the construction of new teaching spaces. Block E remains in use and requires targeted upgrade works to address end-of-life building components and align the building with the quality and performance standards of the wider redevelopment programme. The school's 10 Year Property Plan identifies roof replacement, façade upgrades, and replacement of floor and wall coverings within Block E as priority projects funded through the current 5YA. Overview of the programme of which this project is a part: This project forms part of Taita College's broader property redevelopment and asset renewal programme. The works are funded through the current Five-Year Agreement (5YA) and support the school's long-term property strategy by addressing building envelope deficiencies and renewing internal finishes to ensure the ongoing performance and usability of Block E. Requirements for phasing and / or staged handover of the project: The project will need to be carefully staged to enable the school to remain operational during construction. Works are expected to be sequenced by building elevation and internal areas, with higher-impact activities undertaken during school holiday periods where practicable. The design and delivery approach must minimise disruption to teaching activities and maintain a safe learning environment throughout construction.
