Electrical Appliance Testing and Tagging Services for Fire and Emergency Regions

Fire and Emergency is seeking a suitably qualified supplier to undertake testing and tagging of all electrical appliances in the Nga Tai ki te Puku & Te Upoko regions to ensure compliance with AS / NZS 3760.

Te Upoko covers an area of approximately 53,000 square kilometres from the Southern tip of the North Island up the West Coast as far as New Plymouth, across to Hawkes Bay on the East Coast, and including the Chatham Islands. Nga Tai ki te Puku covers an area of approximately 46,065 square kilometres from Turangi in the south to Port Charles in Coromandel in the north and Mokau in the west to Gisborne in the east.

It is estimated that on average a typical fire station has between 100 and 250 individual items that need to be tested and tagged. In addition, Fire and Emergency offices and training centres in these regions could have between 200 and 1000 individual items that will need to be tested and tagged. For example, The National Training Centre in Rotorua has over 1000 items to be tested and tagged.

However, some of the equipment will be tagged on a yearly basis or every two years in line with the requirements of AS / NZ 3760. To maintain a streamlined and focused selection process, we would like to emphasize that we are not seeking any promotional materials or alternative offerings as part of the proposal submissions.

While we appreciate the creativity and efforts that go into promotional materials and the potential benefits of other services or products. Our primary focus lies in evaluating the core offerings and capabilities of the main contractor to address our requirements effectively. Fire and Emergency only require responses to this tender opportunity and for the identified regions
