RFx ID: 35367775 Organisation: Environment Canterbury Open date: Friday, 30 October 2026 4:00 PM +13:00 Close date: Thursday, 26 November 2026 5:00 PM +13:00 Categories: 53121700 - Business cases 77000000 - Environmental Services 80000000 - Management and Business Professionals and Administrative Services 84000000 - Financial and Insurance Services 93000000 - Politics and Civic Affairs Services Region: Canterbury Overview: Canterbury Regional Council is seeking market feedback regarding the establishment of a comprehensive contract assurance and auditing function for the Total Mobility Scheme and potentially other public transport (PT) contracts. Canterbury Regional Council is particularly interested in understanding market capability, methodologies, resource models, indicative costs, and lessons learned from comparable engagements. A key objective of this work is to strengthen auditing, assurance, and quality control processes within the Total Mobility Scheme. We are looking to develop procedures that are right sized to the scale and riskiness of the contracts in question, and the likely capacity within Canterbury Regional Council. There is an increasing focus on the affordability of the TM scheme by central government. Auditing and quality control of the scheme has historically been underdeveloped nationally, and this is an opportunity for a supplier to position themselves as an expert in the field.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this financial & professional services opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
