Engineering and Environmental Services for Landfill Management and Waste Initiatives

Hutt City Council (HCC, Council) are looking to engage a suitably qualified and experienced engineering and environmental consultant to provide professional services relating to Council�s Silverstream Landfill and its closed landfills.

Engineering and environmental services relating to Council�s broader waste and resource recovery initiatives and emissions reduction initiatives are also included in the scope of services. Council intends to award a multi-year contract for these services (three years with provision for two further extensions of two years, i.e. 3+2+2).

Hutt City Council is looking for providers who have direct experience and capability in landfill engineering, planning, environmental services, and (to a lesser extent) resource recovery facility design services in New Zealand. What is important for Council is for our open and closed landfills to be managed in a responsible manner, for the protection of the environment and to the standards expected by our community.

The Successful Respondent will demonstrate they have sufficient resources available and be able to cover the broad range of expertise required for this contract. A strong collaborative relationship will need to be established and maintained with Council to ensure that critical risks and costs are managed.

This contract will be an open competitive tender for a broad scope of work including landfill engineering, planning, environmental services, and resource recovery.

Professional service contracts such as this one do not come to the market often, and given the significant changes, both recent and to come, within the waste sector, Council seek to show strong leadership with relation to managing its landfill, controlling environmental discharges, managing the risks associated with its closed landfill portfolio, promoting waste diversion initiatives, and reducing the impacts of climate change.

Council will hold a half an hour online briefing sessions for suppliers from 3 -3.30pm on Monday 19 August 2024. At this session, the relevant council staff will provide an overview of the nature of the services required. There will be a 10-minute question slot at the end. The briefing will be recorded and uploaded to GETS. Please email our Point of Contract to receive an invite to the session.
